It’s Saturday night and I’m lying on my bed. On hold. This is my life as a computer neophyte, struggling to build a website.
I’m in front of my laptop, listening to some pseudo Latin soundtrack with a soulless saxophone drone as I wait for a customer service representative to take my call about installing an SSL certificate on my website. I’m making sure I install it at a time when no one is really online because it’ll shut down my site for a few hours.
Luckily, a per-recorded woman with a girlish voice chirps about the virtues of their live chat option. A piano chimes mechanically in the background.
Holy shit, I can’t wait to get my website running smoothly.
I’m excited for the end of my current job this week and exciting September to come — going to Portland, selling at ODD Market LA, picking up some freelance work and finishing up some large projects.
But for now, I’m on hold.
Lots of good news and material ahead.
Site will be dark for the next ~8 hours. Thanks for your patience (and good luck with your insomnia).
See you tomorrow.
