All of this is very much in progress but if I continue to hold out for completion I'll be talking for the next decade about the site I'm on the verge of releasing. Some of it falls a wee bit short of being successfully cross-browser or cross-platform but hey, I'm working on it. In the meantime, the fortune project is fully functional and very cool (in my opinion) so there's no reason not to have that up and running while I do battle with and muddle through the other stuff. You know, like my own tweetle beetle bottle puddle paddle battle muddle. Technically I haven't been involved in any tweetle beetle battles as of late, but I swear that's what this feels like a great deal of the time.

Anyway.

This page is called "mute" because three years ago I started designing a site for myself that included a section by that name in which I was going to pretty much just empty out the contents of my brain since I had a lot of things that were kind of getting stuck in there. Instead I designed and redesigned the home page three times, emptied my head into my journal, moved into my apartment and abandoned the whole thing. So this mute is not that mute, and in fact has nothing much to do with muteness at all, but I'm keeping the name anyway just because, well, because. Something about continuity.

I could go on but it's 1:30 in the morning and I begin a new freelance assignment tomorrow, so I'm gonna get me some much needed sleep.

Last thing. Massive thanks go to Ethan for all the help, the cgi, the troubleshooting, etc, but mostly for being an unbelievably huge pain in my ass.
