Findability. Useability. Separation of Content and Design.

Lots of very interesting things I have been reading about these last
couple of weeks. Devouring all the A List Apart articles, trying to
let the ethos of the elite design community wash over me, hoping some
new paradigm will stick, revitalizing my interests, hope, aspirations
to learn more. I think more and more of returning to school to
formally become acquainted with it. Ever since I worked at Tdoc with
all those smart bastards, and really felt excited about what was
happening, I've wanted to be better. However, self defeat let myself
out. Now here I am, realizing that even though I suck, it is still
the medium I truly enjoy. I've learned lots these last years about a
good many things. And now I can step back and see what things,
finally, really do seem exciting to me. I could go to school as a
nurse, and I would love it, but it would really be work. I could go
to school for media design and feel like I was perhaps not in school
at all because I find it so enticing. But I suck. Just like that
stupid ass punk elf on that rudolf the red nosed reindeer christmas
show. The one with the island of the lost toys. Yeah. Like that.
I'm like an elf that wants to be a dentist.
