I have been on the inventory prep team at work for several months now, getting ready for our rapidly approaching inventory. It has kept me busy as hell, working my ass off all day, then coming home and passing out. Well, it is almost over. Tomorrow evening, the company we outsource the counting of our merchandise to will begin counting everything in the store. They will be done sometime Monday afternoon. After that, I am free from the deadline that has been hanging over my head like the sword of Damocles for almost eight months.
Tomorrow I am going to start work on my first useful web app, which will be a social reviews site. Think digg coupled with screwed.us, with the whole thing seasoned with a dash of microformats. It will be open source, based on Code Ignitor, and will be the first time I have played with any type of framework. In fact, it will only be the second large PHP project I have ever worked on, and the first one I did was replaced with TextPattern to run this site. Should be interesting.
Both my birthday and anniversary are coming up in October. If you wish to get me presents, please feel free to do so from my Froogle wish list.
Also, I finally caved and got an account on MySpace. I don’t plan on doing anything with it but commenting on other people’s stuff (which is aggregated to me via Google Reader) but you can still add me to your friends list if you want. The site sucks, though, and is a great example of what not to do when creating a web app, so don’t expect to find me online very often.
