I must work on a web site project for a client

But I just remembered about a text I posted on www.h2g2.com a long time ago. H2g2 is kinda like a wiki. But instead of being free there is a huge structure and hierarchy on top of it, editing and approving content. Originally imagined by Douglas Adams as a real life version of the hitchicker's guide to the galaxy, it features article about life, the universe and everything.

My first to it contribution is a short guide about the art of efficient time wasting.
It begins like that:
The total amount of time allowed to live for a human being is fairly limited and therefore should be considered precious. However, wasting it proves to be entertaining, yet addictive. A proportion of people consider it a lifestyle, while other persons consider time wasters as stupid, ignorant slackers. Both views are discussible, but efficiently wasting time remains a complex and underestimated task that demands the highest levels of personal involvement.
Credits also goes the the editing team who corrected my awkward syntaxes and various grammatical mistakes. And provided guidance, too.

I'm supposed to go to sleep right now

But I can't keep myself from coming back to my computer to watch how my toon is going on funnyflash.com. I uploaded it there because this site actually shares advertisement money with its content creators. Check out the hippopotamus who likes to have noodles on his back.

And surprise! I just found out that Andrew published a new track on www.songstowearpantsto.com! Spot on. And it rocks as usual.

SONG #0277: IT'S TOO LOUD

REQUEST:
You should write a song in your least favourite genre about why you dont that particular genre.

So I had to go to work

Working at the video store is like a sweet laziness oasis in the vast harsh lands of minimum wage jobs. This, however doesn't mean I don't use my procrastinating habilities there too. Here is a fine example of a typical video store working day:

It represents what I do most of the time: watching movies while returns are piling up while trying to get comfortable on a ridiculously small and high chair-bench thing.
Then there's drawing (either on blank receipt paper - which looks like I'm drawing. Or using msPaint on the store computer - which looks like I'm busy except when you look at the screen and see a giant pixellated scrotum) and I also talk to the occasional client, too!
My workplace is actually related to the touchtone genius because it was there that I made the first drafts and roughs for the Genius, like the one you see in the previous post. The most difficult part is hiding them from the manager when he shows up. And finding a pen that works.

So I had to empty the dishwasher

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us...And I decided to start a blog instead.

About week ago, I released the Touchtone Genius on Newgrounds and I had no site to put on my Newgrounds profile. This is not that big of a deal, and starting yet another blog certainly is not worth postponing the emptying of the dishwasher.

But here I am, furiously avoiding doing something useful and editing CSS and HTML. As you can maybe notice, there is still some tweaking to do.
