I want to be…
I’m not the kind of guy who goes for a 4 mile run right after rain and hail starts coming down hard. I used to be. I want to be that kind of guy again. So that’s what I did today.
And you know what? It was fun.
I spent a while today messing around with server & scripting stuff that I only have a hazy grasp on. This also was fun, but a little frustrating. C’est la vie, I suppose.
Some of said scripting had to do with this code that a friend is using for his site – he sent me the original, and I tweaked it for my purposes. The idea is that it’s some accountability, a way for me to make my writing progress public. Right now it’s set so that my current word count is at the end of the bar and my goal is on top; I might try to change this but it still gets the message across.
*edit* It looks like the progress bars are currently showing up on the front page, but not in the individual post. Will see if I can fix this tomorrow.
**edit** I think the bars are working now. I’m sure that if I’d been a CS or CIS major, this would have taken about 3 minutes.
