 Today has been a long day. I went to bed around one o'clock last night, didn't sleep well, and ended up getting up at 6:30AM. I finished reading one of my textbooks on website usability and I played Minecraft for a little bit. I dug a tunnel through the mountain by my Nether portal and I continued working on my place in the Nether. I was going about it all above board but then I kept getting harassed by blaze's and skeletons, and the occasional ghast. So I said screw it and switched to creative. It is kind of annoying because I have all the supplies but it is taking me too long to get the walls and ceilings up to protect myself. I just had the thought that I could switch it to peaceful and use my own supplies. I might do that next time, although flying is nice.

After running on the elliptical and eating lunch I started putting the clear coat on my tables. At least I think it was after lunch. Either way, the process has begun. I managed to get three coats on the underside of the two tabletops, on one side of all the side pieces, and on one side of the legs. I thought about hanging the legs so I could do all sides at once but I ended up not going that route. Tomorrow I'll probably end up painting the remaining three sides of the legs, maybe elevate them a little bit so they don't get stuck on the surface they're laying on. So tomorrow all the clear coating should be done and on Monday I can assemble both tables and get everything set up with my computer and monitors. Or maybe on Tuesday because I have stuff due on Monday and I haven't done it yet.

I was going to work on my homework today but that obviously didn't happen. Tomorrow will be the day for that. For real. It really isn't hard stuff, I have to review a website's usability and accessibility, and write a discussion post about the web standards. Really not difficult stuff but once again I am procrastinating. Shocker.

I had planned on working on that stuff tonight but I ended up getting completely derailed by trying to fix a screen tearing issue on my second monitor, which is actually a TV. I read so many different forums and tried so many different things, and nothing worked. If anything, it got worse during the process a few times. The last I checked it looked better but now that is all I'm focused on. I'll worry about it again later. Probably when I need to finish something for school.
