The 28th of June was the 14th Anniversary of Club Josh, which truly amazes me! I never thought I would stick with the site so long, and trust me some times it seems like an abandoned site, but I still tinker with it as often as I can. I do yearn for the old days of having a computer desk job where I could experiment with things and work at the same time.
As is always fun, be sure to check out the Evolution page to be reminded of the fun that is historical web design!
This redesign is pretty darn modern with its rounded box corners and rounded graphics, but it's what all the kids are doing these days. I do wish I was better with my Movable Type system so I could dump the entire site into it, and still manage to keep different looks and feels for the sub sections - I don't want the Gorn page to look like the Jarrepalooza page! I have seen some neat integrations of Gallery and MT, so there is hope that I can get the Diaries into MT along with the galleries that are still on the Club Josh server and not on Flickr.
That's all for this year! I have had enough cake for today..

It was Matt & Steve's big day, and I was glad I could be there for the festivities.
Here are the rest of the photos.
Man what a crazy month it has been! Since my return to Guest Relations at the beginning of May, my life has figuratively and literally been turned upside down. The main reason figuratively is that I have been working Grad Nites and closing shifts which really throw my internal clock off and it takes lots of sleeping and general lethargy to get back to any sense of reality.
The biggest change literally was Daniel's accident on May 13. Most of you know via Facebook or Twitter, but Daniel fractured his right femur on May 13 and was admitted to the hospital and had to have surgery to insert a metal rod and some pins into his leg in order to get it back into tip top shape. Unfortunately, it has resulted in a 3 month recovery period which will last for most of the summer.
Daniel spent 6 days in the hospital recovering from surgery, and is now living with his parents since he still cannot put any pressure on his right leg. Since he is pretty much a hermit in his parent's house, I have been spending a bunch of time over there in my off time. It does not leave time left for much else, especially in the beginning.
I think in the last week, I have really settled into a routine where I can visit with him, and still start to take care of the laundry and other chores around the house (and web sites!!). Of course, my body finally forced me to take a break, and I had a minor cold this week and really had to hit the Day-Quil and take it easy.
Thankfully, I have recovered enough for the big wedding this weekend! I'm happy for Matt and Steve as they finally get to celebrate their marriage from last year. Daniel and I planned to attend in his new Prius, but it looks like we will have to go another time, once he can drive and actually buy his new Prius. The time in Sacto will also allow me to get some other web work done without all the distractions on my iMac.
Should be a fun weekend, and I will try and post photos and updates while I am there.
Website note: I hope to have the new homepage pushed soon, so you can follow my Tweets right here. I think I like more Twitter updates than less, so I think I will post 3-4 tweets instead of the one status update I originally planned to do. I think at that time I will also unlatch Twitter and Facebook...
