The Ball Is Rolling.

Registered "Map's Edge Media" as a fictitious name with the state of Missouri this morning. I expect that within two weeks, I'll have at least a dozen pens and two pads of stationery with that name on them arrive in my mailbox, all for free. Nothing like registering a business to get the promo items rolling in!

I'm sure there will be more to do, though since I'm selling services and not goods, per sé, it will be far less complicated than Seamlyne was. No inspection from the Fire Marshall, for instance. We've got a call and email in to the accountant for more info on that.

So, next: business cards; updated website; make the workspace more...er...workable.

This weekend: drywall in the living room, and - at least - primed, by Sunday evening.

Late Edit: had a quick chat with CFO a few minutes ago. He doesn't foresee closing the business in October, but he does think it's going to be a rough couple of months - and it's only going to get more uncomfortable for DataGuy as the plan is to tighten the screws on him and keep them tight for the rest of his working relationship.

I had always planned to move into more of a managerial capacity, I just didn't expect to be managing DG.
