This week alone has been crazy, in a mostly good way.
Crazy (Bad):
edit: check came for 3 invoices so I’m ok that it’s a day late.
As of this post, I haven’t received a check from a client for work I completed in the beginning of February and payment was due yesterday. They understand the payment [...]
Last week I cleaned up a CodeIgniter based CMS I developed called SporkCMS and open-sourced it. My entire goal with this CMS is to just share my work and to give people a good CMS that is easily extended to their needs.

Update: I’ve hit a roadblock where I can checkout from my repositories, but not commit to them. I get a 170001 authentication error; I don’t want to use Apache+Mod_SVN. I want to just run nginx, so I’ll looking for any info on doing just that.
