It Lives
Today was our “go live” date for the day job redesign, which has consumed most of my time and life since last October. After 6 weeks of many late nights for the final push, we launched at 4 AM this morning. I left finally after 3 PM this afternoon completely wiped. I can’t remember the last time I had a full night’s sleep.
The results speak for themselves. This is probably one of my finest web achievements. I couldn’t have done it without my two excellent designers who stuck by me through the late nights and worked to see the vision through.
Tomorrow, we go back and pick up all the little errors and problems that arose from the implementation. Tonight, I’m drinking good bourbon after taking a fine nap and eating some good Indian kabob. It is all about babying tonight. I’m just very happy it is over, very proud of all of my co-workers who helped me with this redesign, and very happy to finally have time to sit and write in the Parlor again.

Congradulations! I offer you these lyrics – well, its more of a poem.
After all is said and done
You’ve never walked, you’ve never run,
You’re a winner
You got the moves, you know the streets
Break the rules, take the heat
You’re nobody’s fool
You’re at your best when when the goin’ gets rough
You’ve been put to the test, but it’s never enough
You got the touch
You got the power
When all hell’s breakin’ loose
You’ll be riding the eye of the storm
You got the heart
You got the motion
You know that when things get too tough
You got the touch
You never bend, you never break
You seem to know just what it takes
You’re a fighter
It’s in the blood, it’s in the will
It’s in the mighty hands of steel
When you’re standin’ your ground
And you never get hit when your back’s to the wall
Gonna fight to the end and you’re takin’ it all
You got the touch
You got the power
When all hell’s breakin’ loose
You’ll be riding the eye of the storm
You got the heart
You got the motion
You know that when things get too tough
You got the touch
You’re fightin’ fire with fire
You know you got the touch
You’re at your best when when the road gets rough
You’ve been put to the test, but it’s never enough
You got the touch
You got the power
