Frustrating Day.

May 26th, 2009

I did not have a good day, at all. It all began when I woke up to my family being waaay to loud. What is the use of having a day off from school if I can’t even sleep in?! I finally got around to falling asleep again and woke up at around 10 or so. I wanted to go to the gym before I had to go to work at noon so thats what I did. Well, I was at the gym for around 30 minutes and out of NOWHERE when i’m doing this shoulder machine thing this rude old man comes up to me and he’s like um do you know how to read? and I was like yes, why? And he pointed to this little sign that said “Please be courteous to others and wipe down the equipment when you’re done with it.”

OK. I was tired. I got on like 10 different machines but I never even broke a sweat because I only did them for a couple minutes each, so its not like they were gross and dripping with sweat. Also, I always use the sanitizer in the gym when I get off a machine. He proceeds to tell me that he’s been “watching” me and my behavior with the machines. Dude, are you serious? I wonder if he saw all the other fat, sweaty old people who didn’t even bother sanitizing their hands after the use of the equipment. I just said “Alright” and that was that, if I had said anything more I would’ve took his head off his shoulders. After my encounter with Colonel Sanders I decided to come home and I find my yelping dog. I let him out of his crate and then went upstairs to take a shower. When I was all through with that I headed to work and that is where the fun begins.

I work with a lot of immature people. I’m not saying i’m not, but atleast I know when to stop. This stupid kid, whose name I won’t mention, put a huge dot on the side of my face with a permanent marker. I had to scrub my face raw with a paper towel until it came off and I didn’t look so stupid anymore. Then later that night I was checking the calendar on my phone and one of my managers (who I usually get a long with) was like “Logan! Put your phone up!” I didn’t really think it was a big deal cause all I was doing was checking my calendar. Then I had to find out whether I had to request off or not for graduation because my chorus class has to sing at it. Well in the middle of texting this person I got yelled at again, except this time my other manager was like “I’m writing you up.” I didn’t think that was fair at all. I wasn’t even texting the first time. Also I think its REAL funny how every other manager texts while they’re on the floor, but they’re gonna yell at us cause they think they’re above us. Its all bull crap.

So here I am. Writing a blog to release some of my frustration. I just got off work around an hour ago and hopefully my night will only get better. Maybe this McFlurry will make some of the anger disappear. Alright, thats about it, Thanks for listening to me whine a little.

He is still alive?!

I’m aware that Arcaeic has gotten a little in-active. OK. a lot inactive. I know this is my fault and I’m doing my best to fix it! I officially get out of school June 3rd so I’ll have more time to devote to this website. I’ve added 2 new textures and I’m working on many tutorials. :)

Oh and let me just say that I LOVE the spell checker that comes along with FF. I’m an alright speller but I’m terrible with grammar. This thing keeps me in check. (As I mentioned in my previous post) I know everyone is getting sick of the “top-banner” style of layout that I’ve had to use over and over. I’m working on other styles of Word Press layouts. The options are literally endless, but every layout is done in complicated coding. So I’ll try my best!

Thats about all for today. I’m tired, I just got home from work.
I feel terrible for not blogging for basically 2 months. I will do better.

Let Me Fill You In.

April 23rd, 2009

So for those of you that have still been visiting the site..

First of all let me applaud you. I have not blogged or updated in almost 2 months. I went through a creative block for a long time, then I got distracted with school, spring break, and up-coming exams. I am really sorry for neglecting the site! I have made a brand new layout, I’m aware that the whole “top-banner” style of layout is getting a little boring. But right now, its the only layout I know how to make with the almighty WordPress. But rest assured, better layouts are on their way! I just have to get more practice…

Tonight I went through the site and critiqued myself really harshly. I saw a ton of things that needed fixing. I re-worded a lot in the about me page, repaired broken links, made the nav. box a little less hideous, and of course uploaded the layout. Also all of my affiliates deleted me off their lists but they were still on mine and still getting traffic from me according to AwStats. Thanks guys, you’ve been removed. :) I will be adding a portfolio section onto the site soon. It really helps when I can practice different techniques and styles. Recently i’ve been doing a lot of abstract designs, they’re not the greatest yet but they’re getting there. Even with tutorials, half of the stuff you have to figure out yourself cause they are just very in-depth.

If anybody is wondering, I had a really good time in Florida. I think i’ll be uploading some pics of that later. It might take a little while to grab them off of facebook though, so we’ll see.

That’s about it for now. I will continue to try and blog every other day. I rather not do it everyday cause then they will start to get really repetitive, who would want that?
