The Road to Reconstruction – Day 67

I finished Page 16 of the movie section. It’s not a huge amount of progress, but it’s progress nonetheless. I’m hoping to move further along next week as there shouldn’t be anything pressing to occupy my time, but we’ll see. Stay tuned.

The Road to Reconstruction – Day 66

I made a little more progress on Page 16 of the movie section. I was juggling some other stuff, so I didn’t make quite as much progress as I would’ve liked, but progress is progress. Now I just have to continue to make progress and we’ll have one less task to do. Stay tuned.

The Road to Reconstruction – Day 65

I finished Page 15 of the movie section (which included going over my mini-essays for the Star Wars series) and started in on Page 16. Just have to keep on chugging along. Stay tuned.

The Road to Reconstruction – Day 64

I made a little progress on Page 15 of the movie section. I probably would’ve finished the page, but I was also spending time writing, which I suppose should be my priority. Anyway, I’ll keep at it in the days to come. Stay tuned.

The Road to Reconstruction – Day 63

I managed to meet my goal of finishing the comics section, so now I just have to get through the movie section and all the reviews will be back up.

A coworker of mine watched the original House on Haunted Hill the other day, which prompted me to check my own review and realize there was no “The” in the title, so I had to go in and correct all the entries, so that counts for a bit of work on the movie section. It kinda reminds me of the time I realized there was a “The” in The Quintessential Quintuplets. And here I thought I had something for the Q section of the alphabetical list… A stitch in time saves nine, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and all that stuff…

Anyway, if I can average about a page a day, I should only need eight days to finish the reviews. I don’t expect to make any progress over the weekend, but who knows? I may find myself less than eager to get my tail whipped in Unicorn Overlord and may opt to do something else instead. We’ll see what happens. Stay tuned.

The Road to Reconstruction – Day 62

I finished with Page 9 of the comics section and got partway into Page 10. Another day and I should be able to have the section finished, so yay for that. Stay tuned.

The Road to Reconstruction – Day 61

I didn’t have as much time to work on it, but I did proceed a bit in Page 9 of the comics section. As you can probably tell, I’m going ahead with wrapping the section as I don’t have that much more to go. With summer vacation coming up, during my obligatory half-days in the office, I should be able to get through the movie section in relatively short order and then I can fight with the code to get things properly squared away, and we’ll be pretty well done with the reconstruction efforts. We’re well behind schedule, but that’s nothing new in these parts. Work to do, work to do. Stay tuned.

The Road to Reconstruction – Day 60

As I was trying to think of what I was wanting to write, I did some work on the site and got through Page 8 of the comics section. We’ll see if I just decide to power through to the end as there are just two more pages and some change, similar to what I did in the TV section. It’s that or switch over to the movie section. Stay tuned.

The Road to Reconstruction – Day 59

I finished Page 7 of the TV section and rather than switch over like I’ve been doing, I decided to just keep going and finish the TV section, so now I just have the movie and comics sections left and I’ll be done with my work to reconstruct the site. There’s still about 600 reviews to go, but once that’s done, I can turn my attention to fighting with the code so I can get things looking more the way I want. Things to do, things to do. Stay tuned.

The Road to Reconstruction – Day 58

Another day and another bit of progress on Page 7 of the TV section (this being Tuesday). The now-over (for me) Wednesday was spent grading, but this now opens up Thursday and Friday for hopefully uninterrupted progress. Stay tuned.
