Happy Anniversary
Monday, October 17, 2011 at 01:02AM I think I'm typing faster now than I used to. Because I have to. I just learned this week that the rest of the world has eliminated the double space after a period. I learned it after realizing my double spaces weren't translating through HTML while editing my new site. My world is rocked. Almost as much as when I learned that there was no 3rd comma when typing a list. I halfway do it the new way & halfway the old. I wonder if I'll ever be able to stop double spacing.
So my new website is going live as we speak. My designer & I started working on it towards the middle of the summer. Wow, it's been a long road full of lots of sleepless nights. And money. Even though I did most of the content (me & one of my employees that came in towards the end to help), it still cost the same amount as my original site.
Since last week I've seriously been considering changing my name. I've been thinking about for over a year (pretty much since I started it), but it's been more on my mind lately with the new site coming out. I want my blog to be respected among the foodie community as a source to find good restaurants, but who would want to go to CaterServe's food blog? Ughh, not me. I need a new name. A perfect one.
I need a new computer. A new phone. A headset. A van. New equipment. A full time assistant. A full time social media/marketing director. I have the people, I just need the money to pay for them. And I also need more time to spend with my son - I didn't take any pictures of him this weekend. :(
It was our anniversary yesterday - we made it a year!
We had an event that was a disaster (my first one yet). And Isaiah's babysitter (Nana) couldn't keep him overnight. We had to cancel our dinner reservations because of the disaster catering. Then we had about 30 minutes to eat our anniversary dinner at another restaurant. Then we had to drive to Sunnyvale to pick up Isaiah. Happy Anniversary!
But really we had some lovely moments surrounding the actual date, & it wouldn't be very like us if it weren't chaotic & unexpected so I think we're going to chalk this one up as a success.
