This guy coded it and he is also awesome. On his personal site he gave some software-building rules to follow. From what I have experienced so far with software he is spot on and I want to obey his great advice. Behold, and it came to pass:

Yup. That’s the stuff. I just signed with a local marketing firm and bought plane tickets for a very cool, very well-known actress friend to be in our commercial. So PUMPED! This is really, really exciting and a bit scary. It’ll be good stuff, though. We’re going to get noticed and the app is going to kick some tail.

I was still on some email list so they sent me something today. It was pretty funny to see that the dates the show is running are exactly the same time as Tech Crunch Disrupt New York. Haha. I’m going to that one! It’s a sweet technology conference about emerging software companies. This was the banner at from the email about paper:

But we’re going to this one : )

This is the official song but the video’s not. I love the bridge.

But right now I’m waiting for a potential investor to get back to me. It’s taking 400 years and I might die before he does. I was expecting an offer a week ago, then last Friday, then this morning. Aye, aye, aye! The pain of it all! I almost feel like I can’t move forward one more step until I hear back from this guy. Our conversations and meetings thus far have been encouraging, I like him better than other investors and he’s sold a company already. Good signs. He also said he doesn’t believe in stringing someone out for a long time performing fake due diligence. All good signs.

But man this is rough. It’s like telling a kid you’ll take them to Disneyland tomorrow and when they wake up you’re nowhere to be found. They email you and a day later you get a response that it’ll be at the end of the week.

Ghhaaaahhhhh! Blah!

Patient I am not. I wouldn’t consider that one of my virtues.

Does that mean I sit in the waiting place? Nay.

Wasting time in the waiting place I am not!! This morning I contacted 2 angel investment firms! Ha ha! I can’t sit around and expect good things to just happen.

It’s where Willy Wonka says stuff in a condescending way.

That’s the scene in the movie that’s it’s from, it’s on :58 specifically.

I recently deactivated facebook like the post says a couple items down. Now I’m so darn productive haha.

Not being on facebook has probably made me a little more productive, I can’t say I’ve noticed a whole lot. I have been on Twitter a little more. I’ll probably get back on facebook when it’s time to promote the Parker Planner app.

I got to ride my brother Ammon’s 2010 Ducati 1198S. It’s insane. If you know anything about motorcycles you know it’s one of the craziest bikes ever made. It’s got Öhlins suspension, Brembo brakes, and carbon fiber bodywork. If you so much as look at the throttle it will wheelie or spin the back tire. It’s easily the fastest bike I’ve ever ridden; and I’ve ridden a 999R!!

Hanging out with Ammon and Tate.

Recently I went to a trade show and the Carl paper trimmer guys were there again. They make great stuff. They gave me a huge trimmer because I’m their biggest fan.
