Databases! AAAARGH!

*sigh* I have a database to design. Not just a simple database, either. A complex one with calculations and cross-references between tables, and lookups and all sorts of crap. Sheesh.
It's been too damned long since I had to do this stuff. My brain hurts. But I'll figure it out. I just have to work on it in bits and pieces so as not to give myself a headache.

Anyway, I am, at least, with projects to do. Better than not, I say! For projects mean $ and I may actually MAKE something out of it. Wheee! :o)

As to the rest of life, um. Same stuff, different day. Living, loving, etc.

Take care.

Now featuring RSS feeds for our posts! Wheeeeeeee!

Well, now we've really gone and done it... now you can get our posts delivered to your desktop on yahoo's home page, some others, and a myriad of RSS news readers out there...
How weird is THAT? Anyway, the latest on us:


I'm working on web design - not just our site, as you can see, but for a real-estate and lending firm just about to go big-time. Could be a good opportunity.
Beth tested for a new job with a national shipping firm yesterday, and breezed through most of it. Now they tell her there are ten more tests. Sheesh. I didn't have to test that much working as support at Gateway, Earthlink, Apple, or the state of California! Sheesh!


On the baby front: here is an artist's rendition (um and the artist is me lol) of what our baby could look like based on photos of us. ROFL! I hope to spare the kid that psycho stare from my eyes! lol


We'll try to post more often, so your RSS readers don't show up blank or error out. lol!

That is all for now.

The Latest News......
Hello all, Beth here. I'm doing the blog entry today because a.) it's my turn, according to Drake; and b.) This latest news feels like something I should be telling.
Had a somewhat busy day today....went out early this morning to the prenatal clinic for "orientation." For those of you that blinked and weren't sure you saw that last sentence, I said prenatal. As in, clinic for women who are having babies. It seems that despite efforts not to be, Drake and I are pregnant. (Or so he thinks...I still say that since it's me who gets to get all fat and cranky that it's me who's pregnant.)
Baby Steele is scheduled to enter the world squalling in protest somewhere in July of 2005. It's too early to tell whether we'll be typing up the birth announcements in pink or blue just yet, but we're pretty anxious to know. We like surprises and all, but we also like to know whether to shop the thrift stores for little dresses or little overalls. We'll be keeping everyone filled in on that.
In other news: Drake is working on drumming up more web design business (hence the site's makeover), and I am looking for another job. I went for an interview today at the appointment, and I hope I did well. I won't know until Monday. We are also looking into expanding the business and are seeking investment capital.
Well, that's about all for now. We'll be keeping a more up to date blog for now, since we've got our own connection. Watch for more updates and follow the bizarre story of us.
