Yes, I do, but you don’t. Although lately I’ve been forgetting that I have, sorry. I guess I’ve been busy either looking into to selling this domain name, or looking for work. Oh… and I’ve been a bit distracted hanging out every so often with a friend playing video games and this last weekend hiking the most BORING trail ever. Its not much of an excuse for neglecting this already neglected site, but it is a reason.

So… hmm, what to do? I’d still like to sell this domain name and put this “project” behind me, but figuring out which auction site is best, with all their dirty little hidden fees is hard to do. So… the door is still open for people to make me an offer, if you’re hankering for a new domain name or…whatever. Otherwise I’ll probably procrastinate a bit more and finally set it up for auction at a lower price then…what I think its worth, or whatever.

Actually it’d be nice to get this domain off my server, as it seems Google has decided that my running an Apache virtual server is something it doesn’t like and has removed my portfolio site from listings. Eh… and after I finally got good old Google to finally give it pagerank too. Bleh… and now I’m rambling so on that note, bye.

Well… amidst all the already acquired domain names I finally found one. If only I could go back and grab up all those other names I had thought of all those years ago. Its not even that all the good ones are just taken, they’re all taken! Its the new land grab. But… I found one.

Is it ironic that just as I write about not being able to make something out of this domain name I buy yet another? Yes, yes it is. But who’s to say what I’ll do with this one? Perhaps I’ll tuck it away, perhaps I’ll use it for personal use, or maybe I’ll just sell it? I suppose when it really comes down to it I just like to always have a backup, ya know? In any case I have something new to get my creative juices flowing with while I ticker around with logo ideas.

Bleh… recently I’m been considering selling this domain, perhaps even auctioning it. Its made me think back as to why I originally bought it and how its changed over the years. Granted its never really been a finished product of any sort (due to life getting in the way). Nevertheless, as I look back on the logo concepts I’ve had I have to say I regret the original not being usable the most.

It was part of the whole reason for buying this name, with its play on words (my dog Spot) and also descriptive of its function. I thought it was clever to have a spot with a leash etc. Bleh… sadly everyone thought the damn thing looked like a Yo-Yo! Even when I moved the collar from the middle to the bottom of the spot and added a mouth. People just didn’t get it, unless I explained it. To make matters worse was the fact I couldn’t come up with a layout that worked with the logo. In fact that was what initially slowed me down in developing this site. I wanted so much for the logo to work, but it was like putting a square peg in a round hole.

I gave up, tried again, gave up, made a new logo concept, gave up, and finally decided to go with the lame Web 2.0 sorta look I now have. Sure its clean and looks alright, but there’s not much too it. I suppose it fits this site as it too doesn’t have much to it at the moment. I hate things going to waste, be it a clever idea like my logo concept or a site like this. I’ve tried. I’m just not a programming I’m a designer. I can’t make this site into a place for people to blog or whatever it could have been.

I suppose I’ve finally reached the point of acceptance. When it comes down to it I need to get my life going again. I need to move and throw myself into “the industry” like I had planned. I want to be a texture artist, or be a web design grunt. I just want… something else. I suppose if I could sell this domain to someone who would make something of it and in the process make enough off it to move I’d be okay letting go.

Blargh… ever since my free Flickr account reached its limit I’ve found myself no longer motivated to finish boxing (and photographing) all these damn toys I hauled down from the attic. My broke ass needs a job, or perhaps a sugar momma. I’ve had to delete pics to make room for only my “best” toys/collectibles, which is like impossible! Also, the conspiracy I’ve been creating in my paranoid little head that people have stolen a bunch of my toys continues to develop.

Eating me alive most is not knowing where the cockpit piece to my Captain Power PowerJet (not the ship shown) is. I know I’ve seen it within the last year or two. Could I have stepped on it, broken it, and tossed it? Perhaps… but I doubt it. How in the world I can find the battery covers for the damn ship, the most elusive item to track down for ANY item, but still not find the cockpit baffles me. I’m also not sure how to box up the rest of my stuff. Most of its random stuff and I had to just resort to dumping random stuff in a box. I want organization for once.

I need to upgrade my Flickr account perhaps, or sucker someone into doing so for me. I mean how am I suppose to decide between whether I should post a picture of my new in box original Cafe Ole Strawberry Shortcake or my old Nintendo Fun Club Pajamas?! Also… I’ve come to the realization that I should have cashed in my bounty of Kool Aid points back in the day when they had value. I could have gotten a Gameboy or some cool RC car or something. Nowadays I’ll be lucky to get a frisbee or some inflatable beach ball crap. A grown man just should have over a 1,000 Kool Aid points, its just not right.
