carrie's site launch

so, my in-house project for the past week has been one that is near and dear.

for several months now, carrie has been writing about taxes on her blog, csusz.com. as far as design and layout are concerned, she has picked amongst the WordPress themes that our web host has made available by default.

right before leaving for Seattle, we had a bit of a design meeting. i returned a few mockups to her and based upon her feedback, i completed the graphic design and then moved on to develop the WordPress theme and do a bit of information architecture for SEO.

so one and all, feel free to check out carrie’s (beautifully redesigned 🙂 ) blog about taxes, accounting, and all that sort of stuff! and if you like the design and need that sort of work done, feel free, also, to look up my web development services at SQUAREDESIGN.

drunkish ramblings from the airport…

ventmatic faucets

of course you’ll see this in my flickr feed, but i’ll elaborate. we’ve had the 4-tap kegfridge for quite some time now, even going so far as to have it transported from WA to NH when we moved (is that legal? probably. it was empty at the time). we were never really happy with our […]

at 9:23 the bathtub fell

i previously mentioned the new neighbors across the street, the building being renovated kitty-corner from us, housing, amongst other things, the city of manchester’s new police substation. apparently they haven’t completed refurbishing all the apartments in the building, and work is ongoing. every day i hear random crashes as lazy workmen heave things off the […]

silly hopper

i went into the bedroom for something in mid-day and the cats were all sleeping. i must have made a noise to wake hopper up, and he had his tongue stuck out. he must not have been too awake, he left it sticking out for a while. after about a minute i grabbed my cameraphone […]

nora's trick, too

apparently nora reads my blog, and she wanted to get in on the sitting-on-dads-shoulders-at-his-desk action.

julie's other trick

she usually doesn’t do this while i’m at the desk, so i had the opportunity to use the isight in the macbook pro to get a shot of dad & julie together. both the girls do this from time to time, but none of the boys do.
