I know why I started and I'm already doing a horrible job. Let's not waste time... This is what I did today:
Got slapped with a 420 dollar fine from the state of California! OUCH! It's cool though, I've got until May 6th. Plenty of time.
Wrote a new part of the Samuel saga and I'm working on keystones
20 math problems. 14 correct :(
Read 50 pages of Atlas
Cleaned out my desk drawers (holy shit there was a lot of shit in those shits)
Designed a logo for my clothing brand (header)
Decided I want a Toyota Matrix or a Ford Focus. Focus seems like higher maintenance costs.
Redesigned myspace page to reflect new projects and outlooks.
Time to eat and Rest. goodnight moon.

This is what I did 1/18
In an effort to help give myself a little bit of self confidence, and not let myself feel like I just lounge around all day, I've decided I should track the things that I do. This will help me feel like I've gotten things done and also hold myself accountable when things go bad. I don't actually care if anyone reads this, but if you do and you find my meager accomplishments epic, feel free to encourage me and I'll do the same for you. So, without further ado... My accomplishments as of 1/18:
Today I:
-Took a practice Cbest exam. Wanted to take this by 8:30 to conform with the testing time IRL, but I made a 9 o'clock appointment due to Sunday laziness. Still not scoring very well, but I've never been one for standardized testing and their is still 3 weeks left
-Worked on Sparksuniversity forums. Was asked by a coworker to webmaster a forum he's putting together. I'm not getting paid, but he's pretty savvy in design areas and I need his help with my own site. It's reciprocal. Besides, he'd never say a crossword against me.
I set up dummy accounts and designed some preliminary threads. Need his input before continuing.
-Worked on Revolving Door. I put together a new headline and removed my little man pushing the revolving door. I want a logo, but I'd rather design it. Speaking of, I tried my hand at designing a logo yesterday. I managed to come up with something, but nothing conclusive yet. Will post pics as this develops.
-Created my squeeze page. Jim Fleck was a fucking asshole, but he did say something I took heed to. He told me to squeeze page the end user. "I get their email address before they even see what I'm offering." SOB knows what he's talking about.
-Attempted to create a sitemap. Found a generator online for XML sitemaps, but when I submitted my creation to Google, it didn't take very well. I'll have to either read the guidelines (yuck) or find a better generator.
-Opened this blog. This counts for something, and I'm proud that I took the initiative to do this.
-set up my first group of t-shirts on cafepress.com I took a logo I did when I followed a tutorial and I decided to print it on a shirt. I got the suggestion from a co-worker and figured why not? Any chance for extra money is a good chance for me!
Will update if anything else happens.
