I got a new job as an independent contractor to web design for a gentleman in Centralia that owns several businesses. I am quite happy that my resume, my portfolio, and my interview were all up to snuff. I have been through a few interviews in the area, but this is my first since I had graduated. I am already knee deep into the projects he has and there are quite a few. Already he has liked some of my work. I will add those to my portfolio at ifreelance.com

Anyway, I treated myself to a few things, one being a set of chopsticks. The pic was done on camera phone, but they are light blue and have at the end a pic with navy, white, and gold, the theme colors of my home.

Pretty nifty, huh? And yes, I can eat with chopsticks quite well. I prefer to when I go eat sushi or to a Chinese restaurant.

By the way, elections are just around the corner. Anyone who is registered, do not forget to vote. Even one vote will count, so use it to make a difference. Truthfully, I am not going to get into who I am voting on here. I remember doing that four years ago, and people started calling each other names. I think there was over 72 blog comments on that entry. That was when I had my personal site on a subdomain over at Pixelled.com, my second domain I ever bought.

Site wise, I am contemplating on adding different templates and retiring a few for visitors to be able to download in the layout section. I am going to make a conscious effort to incorporate the sidebar.php file and more, but I also need to upgrade my script. So, in regards to that, if the site looks wonky, it is because I upgraded and I am currently working on it to fix it.

I know I mentioned using Blogrity as an awards site, but I think I will be making it a directory too and combining Pixelled Listings into it. However, I need a totally php webdirectory script that will work properly. I am tempted on breaking the book open and see what I can come up with… however, there are so many scripts out there, I might as well try. I could still modify the script if it needs it.
