An unfortunate event.

Today I was informed that as of February I'll no longer have a job. Apparently my entire department is getting laid off and all of the work we do is going to get out sourced. I'm pretty disappointed. It is not the end of the world, I'm sure I could find another job in four months; I'm just going to miss the people I've met at work.

It also means that I need to reevaluate my current priorities. The illustration projects I have been working on and planning to start soon need get put on the back burner for now. I'll have focus in on finishing up my website and getting my resumé up to date.

My to-do list:

  1. build a flash based splash page
  2. remove my front page PHP redirect
  3. update my web design portfolio
  4. remove a bunch of my older illustrations from the site
  5. double check the HTML and CSS mark up
  6. post up a resume with printable CSS style
  7. build new "contact" and "about" pages

My plan to take a break from being a workaholic for year is totally kaput. At least it was fun while it lasted.
