It’s Sunday, and I’m coming off of a five gig sprint in two weekends, I’m exhausted and my voice needs damage repair with the Throat Coat tea for a few days. I have been LOVING working for myself this past week, I make my own hours, curl up and code all day, code from Starbucks [...]

Well, I’m on the market for a new job! I’m looking forward to it — my last contract was so long that it was time to make a change and get back to doing what I love. It was nice to step off the sinking ship ;-) The only rough part was going from that [...]

I hear I missed a rather vulgar Super Bowl MCMIFOVSVIIEIO last night… yawn. Haven’t we seen Janet Jackson’s mammaries before somewhere? I thought she already posed for one mag or another. And yes, of COURSE that was planned — don’t be naive. :) Gig last Friday went pretty good. Met some great people. I have [...]

I feel like griping today. First of all, you know what irritates me to no end? Those idiots that come into your cube and ask you for help, and when you offer them help or tips they get all huffy and act like they know everything already. Um, if you have ego problems then don’t [...]

Whoa, has it been a month since my last update? Oops sorry. I’ve been incredibly busy at work, and in the evenings I’ve been working furiously on Java, .NET, Maya, Photoshop, Illustrator, you name it. It’s not terribly exciting to exhibit my code samples here so I’ll show you artwork instead :P Kid – colorized [...]

Latest art scans I’m planning to colorize: Wolf Cat Kid Yeah, I drew them all myself. :)

Made a slick little flash popup menu last night. Email me – tekchic AT tekchic.com if you want to know how its done. Flash Popup Menu

Been working like a maniac in flash — buttons, animation, interactivity, art, etc. Figured I may as well start posting the links to them in the blog instead since I’m adding them at the rate of a few a day it seems. Here’s what I’ve been up to lately: Daria (Now you know what I [...]

Flu. Pooh. I’m normally bragging about being “hyper-immune” girl. Bah. Stupid flu. Has had me down for about five days now, and I’m looking at a Friday and Saturday as a 2-gig weekend. I’m toast. Had a huge snowstorm last night to boot, about 5-6″ judging by what I had to take off my Aztek [...]

I made my first turkey this year, a 10 pounder. It took FOREVER to cook. The instructions said 3.5 hours, but in reality it was over six hours. But it was the juiciest turkey I’ve had in a very long time, if not ever :) I made turkey, stuffing, green bean casserole, gravy, and mashed [...]
