Work is extremely busy today because of Nancy being gone. I have six classes to set up in Torgerson, most of them starting at the same time as two others. I got up this morning and have been trying to be in a good energetic mood. I got an energy drink, I went to the bookstore to try and get some inspiration for web design. And then I got to work and ......and the tedium began. I don't know what it is about coming to this job, maybe I need a change, but I just can't get motivated to be proactive. I guess I'll just have to force myself. I guess I can only go so long in one job without some emotional or creative stimulus. I would probably go crazy if I had a job like Kate did over the summer. I'd probably drive the truck right into a wall just to see what would happen(not really). I wish I was one of those people who is truly creative. I have a tough time coming up with anything really original when it comes to graphic design or writing. I'm an expert at recycling ideas, or I guess I could say that I'm inspired by a lot of things. But that would be sugar coating it. I could probably write an entire movie script just by plugging in plot devices and character behaviors used in just about every movie released. I wonder if that would work, write a super-generic script and then just modify it in some way to make it unique. I could have it set on a space planet where dogs are sacrificed to three legged donkeys, yeah that would strike someone as original. Or I could just have a super generic script and get superstar actors to play it. That way it would be 'good' because it was played well. Or I could just take a super generic script and have lots of people taking off their clothes for random reasons. Yeah that's probably the best way, it's make the most money anyway. Wow I really went off on a tangent there. So anyway today my goal is to get everything set up for the SideShowFriends website and find a place to host it. Then if I have time do a nice layout for my portfolio site. Hmm at this point that one is going to be pretty small. And I am going to read at least one article about css web design. If that last one doesn't mean anything to you.....good! I still have a chance at getting a web design job somewhere. That's all for now, I'll let you know how it goes.
