CSS Links and StuffDecember 16 2008

203723_protection_helmet If you’re an aspiring web designer, there’s no dearth of information out there lately. It seems like every guy with a CSS for Dummies book has a blog nowadays.

And that’s GREAT! Seriously, CSS escapes me at times. There are times when I just want to throw an absolute hissy fit because I can’t figure out why my DIVs are scootched too far to the right, and my 750px #container isn’t 750px.

In any case, here are some links to CSS tutorials that may keep from insanity.

Or not.

Goodness!October 11 2008

Holy cow… i’ve been neglecting my blog!

In all fairness, It’s been six months of turmoil… I started my new position at work (Technical Publicist), then we (The Todd clan) were evicted from our rental for no good reason. I suspect it was in foreclosure but my cynical nature says the property owner is just an asshole.

So, we spent 3 months at my in-laws house, and ultimately we bought a house.

Yep, we bought a house. A cute 3/2 built in 98. Got a good rate, got a good agent, found a great neighborhood, and got a good house the kids can call home now, forever.
