The lack of both presence on the mud, and updates is probably a good hint that things have been pretty crazy for me lately. Super busy. Sick with Laryngitis. A lot of work on. Emotional rollar-coaster. And trying to get my head around another of my hobbies that has re-established itself. I’m not yet completely comfortable with it. But I won’t get into that here, probably not the place to.
The laryngitis has been … interesting. I lost my voice completely for a few days. And that was difficult, especially when it came to looking after Ewan. He kept telling me to ‘turn it up’, or kissing my throat and declaring ‘aaaaallll better!’. Lots of cute little moments.
This is the site I have been working on: http://www.chriscourt.com/dev/zenphoto/
Though it is less, for me, about the design, and more about the back end, making a custom CMS to allow the client to update and manage the photographs. Getting it to look just right and match the graphic designers specifications. So.. it was kind of like.. font a little bigger.. smaller, thinner, move it up.. no down.. It was a bit of a learning process and required a lot of patience.
As a result of all of the above, I’m way, way behind on my assignments. I have two majors due on my birthday. Yay. But I managed to get a med certificate for extensions for both for another few days. I haven’t started on either. The Parallel Programming one (map reduce) needs to be done on the uni computers and I haven’t been able to go in. Tomorrow though I hope to get started on that.
The other is a information visualisation one. Less worried about that one. Confident I can come up with something. Haven’t heard yet about my extension request.

Hope you feel better soon. We are all lost without you.
