Ah, the headaches of design

[selenay]

I've actually acheived a surprising amount today. I've paid my car tax. I did all the research for tomorrow's interview, including finding maps and routes which prove that it's easier to find than I thought it would be. If anyone sees a purple Nissan Micra bombing around Liverpool with a worried and confused-looking driver, though, you'll know that was wishful thinking *g*

I've also roughed up another design for the art trust website and then got thoroughly stumped for a third. So I picked up The Zen of CSS Design and had a bit of a flick through, landing on a discussion of colours and textures as well as just looking at the pretty pictures. It got me thinking a little and the result is a partial design that looks nothing like the other two - the first two designs are shockingly similar despite surface changes in colour and typography. I want to make sure that there are several different designs to look at rather than three designs that look almost identical.

I'm happy about this design and will be even happier when it's actually finished - which should be tomorrow, if I get back from my interview with enough sanity, or Saturday. Then I just have to turn these beautiful PaintShop Pro files into functional XHTML and show them to the client. Not much to ask, really *g*

I also managed to work on the current Teyla/Elizabeth fic a little (read, 50 words) and did a little bit of work on Under Green Hills. All of this and I still have the evening to fill. Go me. Now I must prepare a nourishing repast to equip me for an evening of archery, which will hopefully be the perfect destress to ensure a good night's sleep.

Oh, and iron my good suit trousers and a smart shirt. Mustn't forget that.

I'd be assuming she's supposed to be pretty much anywhere else, actually. :-)

Hope it goes well in any case.

It went very well. I found the place without getting lost, in rush hour, and they'd already called my agency by the time I got home to ask for a second interview. It will be some time next week. The agency seems to think that the rest of the interview process is a shoe-in. I'm not so confident, but a second interview (particularly so quickly) is encouraging.

But *was* it in Liverpool though? :-)

*g* Sorry for munchie, but no. Would have been *way* off if I'd made it to Liverpoor :-)
