Every Time I Start To Get Close…

…I end up slacking off again.

This is the story of every website I’ve ever had since the beginning… The URL for which I cannot consciously recall.  I all I remember was that it was an Angelfire.com website about cars…

 Sidenote: I found the URL of a site I worked on a hell of a long time ago with my friend Dan.  This site pre-dates my high school era, so be gentle (when judging both the content AND design) –> http://www.geocities.com/gottheliphe

Anyway, every day I’m in here I start bangin out at least one, often times two templates for sites that aren’t my own.  Meanwhile my site has been a splash screen for the past 5 months.  It sucks.  By the time I arrive home and sit at my computer, the last thing I want to focus on is designing another site.  It’s just not the same anymore (unfortunately) because web design went from being a hobby to a jobby… It starts to lose it’s appeal after the first 8 hours a day I spend on it.

REGARDLESS NONETHELESS:

I will finish my site, even if it’s only a few static pages with minimal content.  I will fill it up as I go, because I feel like I have a lot to offer in the vein of design and video on this crazy internet of ours, and I’ll be damned if my voice goes unheard for much longer.

Things That Web Design Will Now Take Precedence Over: Eating, Sleeping, Cleaning, Relaxing, Napping, and other web-related design endeavors.

Things That Web Design Will Not Take Precedence Over: Jackie, Family, Friends, Work (damn it), Weekend Fun, Thursday nights.

about this

So little to say and so much time… Here goes something….

My name is Andrew to everyone who knows me and nothing to the people who don’t. I rarely feel inclined to write about myself and this small text blurb is no exception. I’m a film maker, of sorts. A designer, of sorts. A musician, of sorts. A photographer, of sorts. An armada of etceteras march behind these four generals.

The point I’m trying to make is that I enjoy art in all of it’s forms, and try my best to creatively express myself in every medium I take a liking towards. As always, things like life get in the way of being a non-stop idea factory, but that life is something that I’m thoroughly enjoying at the moment.

It consists of my beautiful girlfriend who I am very much in love with, a job that pays me well to do work that I would otherwise be doing for free, and a family and friends that I wouldn’t trade the world for. It’s safe to assume that I’m walking on air/over water/atop mountain peaks (pick one… hell, pick all three).
