I just wanted to say this. Coding for Safari just requires too many work arounds for even the simplest tasks (such as displaying a background image and/or color in the body tag of the stylesheet). Safari may tout being “standards compliant,” but it most defenitely isn’t. Please, Internet surfers of the World, use Firefox instead (hell, I’d even settle for IE 7)!

So this past Friday I moved into my new apartment! I’m really liking not living in a fraternity. Not that living in a fraternity wasn’t fun, it was, but now that I’m in the “real world,” I think apartment living will be more conducive to my productivity and work.

Here’s a list of reasons why I’m happy to be living in a new apartment and not living at the fraternity:

• I don’t have to walk down two flights of stairs to get to the kitchen
• I don’t have to lock up my food
• Bigger room and a lot more storage space (plus a huge closet!)
• I can finally set up my desk so it’s more like an office/work environment than a college dorm room environment
• Closer to my work
• Quieter neighborhood
• Kevin (my roommate) has an Xbox 360 and is getting an HDTV (can we say Halo 3?)
• The list goes on!

Once I get everything situated, set up and organized, I’ll take some pictures and post them here so everyone can see how cool I am.

In other news, I’m still in the works of getting the PC I built for work to work. I’m hoping to have that settled by the end of this week. I’m currently finishing up that Alpha Gamma Delta - University of Minnesota Chapter Web site, and then I’ll be working full-throttle on Circuit Sports’, Kelly Benefits Strategies / Medifast Pro Cycling Team Web site, as well as Jane Gilgun’s Personal Web Site.
