Yesterday was a ton of fun for me.

I had this deadline for this past weekend, that at it’s core, meant designing and building two full websites over the span of five days. So I was working feverishly to get them done.

Yesterday was the deadline, and it felt good to have hit it. Chris and I went over to Walker to see the guys graduate that we had worked with for the past month and a half. We got to talking with our three favorite guys, who want to learn and are all really bright guys.

Later in the afternoon after we got the second site launched, I needed a breather, and Chris had an errand to run, so I went with him. Over the weekend he bought a new computer, 64 bit Ahtlon processor and some dual channel memory. He found out later that the memory was messed up, so I went with him to take it back to Fry’s.

Now, from what I understand, Fry’s is a chain from California. But it is welcome here in Indy. Damn. Fry’s puts Best Buy and Circuit City combined times five to shame . They have everything, and 25 of it. The store is just overwhelmingly huge and is every computer nerd’s dream. I could have spent the whole day in there, instead we only had an hour and I spent it dreaming of getting a computer case that better fit my workflow.

We got back downtown just in time for the Buggs Events kickoff event. Buggs Events was the second site we were working on, and they are just a blast of a client. Always fun and easy to work with, Buggs Events is the event planner for the canal and other special occasions with individualized settings. They just had the most gorgeous and tasty food down on Vermont and Indiana. A high end event planner, I wish that I had Buggs Events when I planned my wedding. Especially the chocloate dip fountain for marshmellows and strawberries, and hell, your shoe if you were that hungry.

I came home just for a bit to see my gorgeous wife, and then I bravely went all by my lonesome to see The Ring 2. That was a good bookend to the first movie. I really liked the story, and the second time round the anticipation was what was the scariest.

Tonight, we are watching Smallville in hopes of seeing some sneek preview scenes from Batman Begins. Mowed the ‘ol lawn, which is becoming scarily ritual, and just doing some relaxing.
