No, that’s not a reference to masturbation (though, I supposed it could work in that scenario, too)…I’m talking about congratulating yourself on a job well done.<\/P>

As I’ve posted before, I’m heading off on vacation after today. So, I wanted to tie up all of the loose ends before I leave. As of yesterday afternoon, I’ve finished quite a few short-term and long-term projects I’ve been working on. I published 2 papers for the research program I work for and I cleared stacks of stuff off my desk (both short term). More important though, I passed a major hurdle in creating a website for my boss.<\/P>
\n

I’ve been maintaining a website for my other boss for the past year or two. My other boss (who I actually do more work for) asked me to create one for him, too. The template was designed by our computer people – but the content was all up to me. So, I’ve been compiling 35 years worth of articles and books to post on line. This involved on-line research, file cabinet searching, library searching, photo-copying and scanning from paper to pdf. After doing that, I’ve been writing it all up in html (which took forever because I’ve only taken a few training sessions in html). Anyway, yesterday afternoon I finished the content. Now all that’s left is to confirm I wrote it all up right and that the hundreds of links work (35 years worth!!!!!) That’s the next hurdle. But I hope to complete that between when I get back from next week’s vacation and my late-July vacation in Provincetown (two weeks later).<\/P>

So, in conclusion…HOORAY FOR ME!<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
