Just thought I'd update you guys, cause I haven't on my blog.

First week done I've learned:
HTML
XHTML
CSS
I'm pretty confident that I can do anything I want with those 'languages', however messy the script may be (I'm hoping cleanliness will come with effort and time.)

This week has been a bit slow due to my parents taking a vacation and leaving me with the little kids, so there goes two days. This is pretty much three days of work, and maybe twenty-something hours (it took a bit of re-learning to get some concepts). Starting next week, I'm going to do strict eight-hour work days, because I've strictly decided on eight hours.

For next week I plan to accomplish:
Fixing up seagull.net(my dad's site) to eliminate unnecessary html and substitute it with CSS. Just to see where I stand.

Designing my own website with a blog, blog archive, gallery, links, and article section using HTML and CSS.

Learn basic Javascript (Is this necessary? Almost ever site I know uses some form of Javascript)

Learn fundamental PHP

Learn fundamental MySQL

Blog
You guys could do a big favor by nagging me to do these things through the forum and maybe dropping me a flaming email telling me to get to work .

Thanks for all your support and suggestions....BTW $3000 for a flash game HOLY HELL!

PS: Lynda.com...Use it. It is the single most useful website on the planet.
