Downtime is for the weak

This revelation came to me when my friend Lee pointed out I had missed a major problem in a previous design I had made while at Suckerpunch, which he now has to rebuild to remedy.
I have no excuses for this. It’s my fault, and my error, and my shame. I should have known better, and I even knew at the time that what I was doing wasn’t my absolute best.
I’m spread pretty thin, I know. Between the comic con (new site coming soon with – gasp – a proper CMS and decent content), my new still-unfinished apartment, my course I’m teaching, my far-too-neglected artwork, my still-not-retemplated blog, my job, my freelancing, my essentially severed friendships, my declining health, my friend Patrick’s websites I’ve promised him for over a year, my ongoing programming education, my writing, and my job at CTV, I don’t have much time for silly things like the sleep I can’t help but have.
But this is enough. I’m a joke. I’m dumb, and I’m getting dumber every day I don’t keep up. I need to work harder. No more browsing, no more keeping up with mindless news, no more wasting minutes and hours of my life I won’t be getting back.
Enough being a joke. Enough being lazy and stupid.
I have to work harder.
