The Half
posted in Tubby Running
I know that it has been over a month since I actually completed the Half Marathon, but yeah I’m just getting to writing about it. Sue me 
It actually turned out to be a pretty uneventful thing. I got up at the ass crack of dawn, ate a piece of toast, and drove myself to Fashion Island. I was all prepared with my little energy gummies and gatorade for when I hit my wall, which usually occurred at about mile 10. I debated whether I would take the gatorade but decided against it since I surmised that they would have the powerade drink stations such as they had the previous year and which was also stated in the guide. This turned out to be the worst decision ever! read more »
Chronicles of a Tubby Runner – hmt wk 9

So obviously my plans to keep and updated blog about this years training didn’t quite work out the way I planned. So far the training is going good. I haven’t fallen on my ass as of yet so I consider that a good run so far. I’ve got 3 weeks to go until the big day. Today’s distance was 11 miles. read more »
The Happy Time Process
posted in Happy Time Design Progress
I love putting happy time in front of everything. That’s part of the reason this website name came to be. So while working on the website I was planning on posting progress shots as I designed it but I changed my mind. So here is a shety gif (since that’s the only way I know how to do it) that shows the progress from start to finish. They are all screenshots I took from photoshop so the finished coded version ended up tweaked just a tiny bit before the end. 
Chronicles of a Tubby Runner – hmt day 1
posted in Tubby Running
Lesson of my life: When I tell myself to wait to do B until I finish A then neither A or B will get done. I’m am extremely ADD when it comes to doing thing sequentially. Case in point, my website. I always put other things before it and it never got done. I know I haven’t posted progress but I assure you it is my main priority at them moment. I’ve been spending endless hours trying to modify java script that looks like a foreign language to me but hey, I once created a Chinese version of a website know absolutely no Chinese. We all remember my tweets about little men at the diner table holding up sticks right? Or not. read more »

Colors may end up tweaked before the end ( I know I’ve been on a total green trip for a while now) but here it is!
I’ve already started planning my site and I’ve got a solid direction. Its taken me years to come up with a solid picture in my head but it finally came to me last night. I gave myself until the end of the year so no more lagging. Now to start the design process.
Evolution
posted in Happy Time Design Progress
Man its been a while. I know I haven’t posted updates but I have been working on it. I went in circles for weeks and weeks. Once I reached a certain point I went back to the hand drawings. I tried to add different types of decoration to the logo but in the end I decided to scratch all the additional foofyness and went simple. Here are my final steps. Latest is on the top. Next post, the finale!
