Brain Overload. IE6 must die.

15 Oct

web-lebrity

The work ethic has been non-stop, with lulls long enough to shower and eat, and end the day with a round of House Hunters on HGTV.

It could almost be considered sad.
But I’m on a mission.

With the Bahamas trip coming up the first week of November, the goal is to make sure that all projects are closed, or on track for completion the following week… and that all invoices have been paid.

I’m sooo ready for a vaca.

Yesterday, I spent a few hours dealing with design / browser compatibility for IE6. I wanted to scream.

IE6 must die.

It needs to die. WHY even bother using it now that IE 7 is out? Is it that your network administrator is too lazy to do the network wide upgrade? Is it that you refuse to step out of your shell and try IE7? The only reason I mention IE 7 is because I know how difficult it will be for you to grasp Firefox. Internet Explorer shouldn’t even really be an option, but alas…since Microsoft monopolized the market and 9 times out of 10, you’ll have some version of Internet Explorer already installed on your factory computer, I know that for you… it’s easier to deal than to upgrade. My brain hurts.

Alright, let me get back to work…
Still praying for Mojo…

32 of 365: Woman's Guide to Real Estate

Sans the title… this seems like a great read…
I grabbed it at Marshall’s today for under $5.00…
I noticed it about 10 minutes after we had a conversation concerning the very subject…

RealtyTrac.com is your friend…And from what I can see, there’s LOTS of foreclosures. I remember a few months ago, Incog sent over an article on CNN about those people who were in foreclosure damaging the homes that they were leaving because they were so upset at the situation. Granted there were people who were nice enough to do any damage to the home when they left, but there were quite a few who weren’t that nice.

Watching House Hunters and My First Home makes me want to move down south or north…..or north east. Nothing is as bad as California is right now, other than NY.

I wonder how Barak is gonna affect the economy…
And how long it’s going to take…lol

Eh well…Happy Monday

Designed to Sell…

23 Aug

Ventura Townhomes
Thanks to House Hunters, I’m starting to look at homes again…

There was an episode in which a girl who lives not too far from here found a townhouse for a really great price, and because the price was so low, she was able to make some much needed upgrades.

My issue is that…

Whenever I look at the photos of the homes, SOMETIMES they look so…wonderful and great on the outside…

And then they look like CRAP on the inside.

Now I understand that everyone lives differently and everyone has their own style…

But geez, you couldn’t pick up Billy’s science project from 5 years ago before you took the picture?

Or how about just tidying up the bathroom a little bit.

Hell…just make the bed, maybe?

You can tell not everyone watches Designed to Sell. It should be a requirement for all sellers on the market today. Like… a pre-requisite to selling your home.

*sigh* I just hope my OCD doesnt keep me from finding a great house…

Anyways…back to the hunt…
