Somehow when you're working on a big paper you always think up other, more interesting stuff to do. I decided to make a database for the Rockafellas calendar so that it would always stay fresh and so that staff members could update it. We just had our status meeting, and as usual I was zonked from the four hours' sleep and anxious to get to class and turn in the paper. 5 p.m.: Ended up getting a friend to drive me to class so I could run in and drop off the paper and skip class to eat lunch. Went back and took the German exam. Went home, napped for two hours. Returned to work, was informed that my Fantasy Racing graphic incorporated ^ tamination by an Independent Doctor of Optometry riot good with any other offer or third party plan.

Read only Chevy drivers, which would apparently enrage all the NASCAR types out there. Oh, well, that's what you get when you're designing an ad for a something about which you know jack squat. Sunday, Nov. 23-3 a.m.: Went to the new Star Trek flick with a bunch of DeoDle. Then to Rockafellas for the monthly Jump Little Children show. Got a healthy buzz on, then let it drop off by about 3:30 and headed home. Woke up today at 1 p.m., got dressed and went to work. No one here, so I can get in a good few hours' work on the Fantasy Racing site. Another client calls and asks for the status on his site. I hedge and say that it has been reassigned to another developer (partly true), because The University of Sou the University Bookstoi the University's larg HUNDREDS THOUSAND!

I play with the layout of the site for a while and break it. I fix it and decide to play a little Quake. An hour and a half later I get an email from someone saying that the forum is broken on ScMusic.Com. Sure 'enough, the database is acting up, and I lock down the problem. A friend calls up and asks if I want to go shoot his pistol at the range. I take an hour off to go shoot. I come back, re-layout the sign-up page on Fantasy Racing, and design a new title graphic, sans Chevy. Friend calls up at 11 p.m.and we go to the Elbow Room to see Uncle Mingo. Get in a fight because of friend's drunk brother and head up to Rockafellas to see the crowd. Back to the apartment th Carolina Press and re will join together for ;est book sale ever!

Monday, Dec. 2-2a.m.: Worked all weekend tidying up the Racing site for rollout and Sunday afternoon boss informs me of the REAL changes they requested, the major layout alterations, the copy changes, etc. Well, forget the Geiman presentation, since the Fantasy Racing site is supposed to roll out Monday morning, when 1.8 million trading cards hit the stands containing the address of the site that isn't finished yet. No pressure. Just in case you're wondering, this was a tirade against working as a web developer.
