There is a lot ot be done for school. Which is fine but I also know that I am in a wedding next week so I have to get things done or mostly done before that. I think I am still a little behind on the 2600.
I AM tired though. I think I need a day of just sleeping. It is absolutly beautiful outside today and I am working in my basement office without windows to the real world.
My work is somewhat tedious at the moment as well. I am currently working with open access online database type material called Drupal. (yes it is a very odd name) Which is very exciting and all te work that the past interns and other people have done is all getting online (finally) and is searchable and ooooh it will be wonderful when it is done. BUT we just started using drupal a few weeks ago and while I am not doing the technical side of it it is still very new. It is not hard to use though but we are still in "phase 1" (if you will) and keep running across different issues/conflicts that arise as we go so we have had to go back and change things. example. We were tagging names first name last name which doesn't work to well in the tag cloud or the tag list when everything is alphabetized by first name or title/rank. So we have had to go back through and reformat all the tags. Plus as we were working and tagging names from 19th century newspapers some people ended up being only say Mr. Smith. - then if we found out that Mr. Smith was really Fred Smith there would be two tags for the same person so we had to transport them all to one tag. As we go this will be last of a problem as more and more people will have "fixed" tags that the autocomplete should find. It is a lot of work but the end result will be worth it.
