I’m on the verge of something huge! Personally, I’ve been working on a PHP framework for me to use in the creation of sites for clients (and for my own) since April. I’ve restructured, refactored, redesigned and recoded the last seven months, and I’ve got a pretty solid base. This week I’m going to work on file handling, reading/writing local and remote files, and after that I need to figure out a template management system. You’d think in a year’s time this stuff would have been worked out, but nope, not yet.
I’ve been contemplating using another framework just to get a personal site up and running, but I really liked the idea of using my own code. I think I’m going to break that vow soon, though. I need to get a presence on the Web again. I’m working on an amazing new project with a good friend, so hopefully that will lead to some residual income in Q1 of 2009, but I need something to hold me over. I really think that even though the market is saturated with options, our software is going to be unique and powerful enough to capitalize on ‘make it work’ types, where they don’t want to sit around and screw around with configuration files for hours on end to get nowhere.
I must confess, the thought of even beginning this programming has me extremely happy. It’s not as if this is giving me some sort of renewed purpose in life, but it does give me a metric-fuck-ton of excitement. I really haven’t felt this in a long time concerning ‘work.’
When I was just a baby, my Mama said to me, “Always be a good boy, don’t ever play with guns.” I shot a man down in Reno, just to watch him die. I’m a huge fan of Everlast, and I am especially fond of his cover songs. I’m a sucker for reinterpretations of classic songs, and his version of Folsom Prison Blues is so goddamned good. Don’t arrest me Whitey, but I’m posting this shit for everyone to listen to. :D

I have no idea with what frequency I’ll be posting to this thing, but I need some sort of outlet to get the cluster-fuck of thoughts out of my head. That’s it for the first entry, I’m off to fuck around with Joomla and see if I can whip up a personal site in a few days just to get something going. Should be interesting. Also, I lolled at having to add fuck and shit to the dictionary in this blog editor. Get used to it, faggot, I swear a lot.
