I literally waited until the last day to file income taxes. I dread it. I’m married but don’t get to claim either of the children. Yeah, that’s part of the fucked up temporary order too. You’re right to also be pissed off. Last year I paid $1300. Madness. Like how? Good news is that tax…

Today, I talked with a good friend, and our conversation reminded me about how important it is to try. It reminded me about how many opportunities I have in front of me. Just talking about the uncomfortable facts around my current credit card debt and having passed up a contracting job that would start me…

I cut it a little close with my paid project this week. I finished on the fourth day -– which is what estimated. But I said 4 Days because I expected the work to take three. I let my emotions take over, and I dragged ass to complete the project. This isn’t me beating up…

JavaScript is the next mountain to climb in my learning. I’m looking forward to it. It’s overdue. I’m in year 3 of this Web Developer madness. I love it. In a way, I feel that I’ve plateaued. That’s not right. What’s the best way to articulate?… I mean to say that my imagination or creative…

I’m getting work for the 3rd week in a row. It’s happening and it feels great. SM3 is in motion officially. Yesterday, I sat in on a live info session with a Full Stack Developer School based in Souther Cali called Sabio. They have the program I want most — learning ReactJS and either C#…

Work is becoming regular, and it feels good. Primarily, I’m doing developer work. In the background, nothing customer direct. And I think there’s a really good pace to see how these things work. With what I know so far about the web design process, direct to customer part, I am not crazy about the idea…

This was a very fast moving day to have accomplished very little. I got to solve some problems and learn more about CSS3. I was supposed to submit applications to coding schools yesterday. I’m stalling. Spinning my wheels. Punking out. Today is the day I’ll do two things: Send four application packets to coding schools…

When initially planning my LLC’s website, I wanted to explain the services in a list of frequently asked questions. I thought of cool ways to design it like a colorful accordion. But I also thought “it’s been done”. That’s boring. Dated. Boring and dated are the opposite of what I want the business to achieve.…

I missed a couple of days writing here – or anywhere else. That’s ok. I won’t be hard on myself about it. I’m happy with how productive I’ve been. Yesterday, I worked 4 uninterrupted hours on a free guide for Podcasting Blogger. Didn’t finish it. But the target is finish is Monday for it. Today…

I do love a challenge. You learn so much more when something is broken or when there’s a problem to solve. Recently, the subject I’ve recently learned a lot more about by solving problems is CSS3. More to come on all of these adventures! Tune in next episode!

Got some work! It feels outstanding. A younger, more intelligent mentor has put me on like autotune in rap songs from the late 2000s. WORD!
