Good enough for government work!

Well for the moment I'm calling it good with my code, at least until Wednesday. Of course I still have Pen's to work on, again Wednesday. I'm still not entirely happy with John's but then I have been thinking about some changes that I needed to make there before EJ's redesign anyway. I may even talk Morgan to move over after I get everybody's code squared away, and hopefully after EJ takes care of a few things that are bothersome to users, but who knows. They (EJ) worked hard and it looks good, so go out and find them and give them virtual hugs, and then email all the issues that you are having to them. He He It's Important that you let people know what you don't like so that they can make it better, but you always have to add some kudos to the complaints.

I work tomorrow at 5:30am... that's just sick man! At least when I get out of work I will still have some afternoon left, it seems silly that I will be working just as many hours but I won't feel like I have worked all day.

Not much else going on here, it's been a day of cleaning in short bursts, watching movies (background noise), Boo getting in trouble for digging in the rose pot, catching up on journals (I'm still not done), and rest. I'm glad that the cleaning is done I don't think that I will have the energy to get to much else during the week judging from how I felt last week. Now I'm off to bum around and do whatever.

Have a good one!

Bed Time!

It looks like I'm done with John's code, for the most part, it is back to normal. I still have my sister's to get to but I don't think that she will notice for a few days. he he As for Mike's I have no idea if he wants me to put his stuff back or not... guess that means that he will actually have to speak up if he wants it done by me. Anyone else who wants help let me know, when they changed EJ over it made it a lot simpler to customize your templates. Don't be scared of it.

Well, I now need sleep and lots of it! G'night kids play nice.

So I'm over it

Okay so I was a little bitchy about the changes that EJ has undergone earlier. I'm over it now, I have to say that the new EJ will make it easier for me to write code for other people - that's a really good thing. Adam was kind enough to PM me and offer to send me my old code (Did I put my foot in my mouth in that last post or what? Ha Ha). I did find my old code on the other computers but I was planning a redesign before, so this change actually worked out, even if I was seriously bitchy about it. So far I have only encountered a few major (as I see it) issues with the new EJ, I'm sure that they will be worked out eventually.

For the moment I think that I will keep this look, I ripped most of it from one of EJ's templates (thanks guys!). At very least I got to know some of the new tags that EJ is using. I also managed to get my links back up, thanks to my archive site that was just a copy and paste away. I still need to get my IP tracking back up, yep that's right I log all the IP addresses of you lovely people... it gives me a few other details I just curious as to who would actually read my shit.

Oh and John will be thrilled to know that I broke open that bottle of rum today, it seems that writing code and drinking rum go great together. Must say that my tolerance for alcohol is way down, something must be done about this!

Have a good one!

Damn Fuckers ate my CODE!

Well yeah the re-launch of easyjournal has wiped all my shit out, good thing that I keep back ups (or I did before I had to rebuild the hard drive and wipe everything out. GRRRRRR)... But now they went and changed their site-specific code. SHIT! SHIT! SHIT! So basically if you want me to rewrite your code you'll have to wait until I get mine done and used to the coding system. Rat Bastrads! It shouldn't take to long, looks a lot like the coding system they use on blogger, guess that means that my test site was worth all the trouble I had with it.

tired but curious

I did not intend to leave this journal inactive for this long, or lose track of how everyone else has been doing. I can't say that I have been keeping up with others journals, and right now I'm just not up to catching up, hopefully that will happen later this week. I have been battling the ickies and just started a new job. Isn't that always the way; get a new job and get sick as a dog. Anyway the new jobs is fun, the people are good, though alittle strange... I wouldn't have it any other way.

Basically this is just something to let you know that I'm not dead, just tired and feeling icky. As John would say "this to shall pass" then I will be back. How is everyone else doing?

Have a good one!

The wedding

Being the lazy ass that I am, I will respond to the comments in the last post here. For the inquiring minds the wedding date is for this year September, so I do have some time to bring this together. Which actually works to my advantage, since I want small and simple and have this feeling if we put it off until next year it would turn into something far more elaborate. Sorry Pen, but look at it this way, what better motivation for getting in shape? I don't even have to worry about John, since it sounds as if he already has a date for the wedding(!), and has checked plane ticket prices.

Now as to where the event will take place, great question, I wish that I had that loose end tied up but I don't, we both agree that it will be outside (weather permitting). I looked around the Black Hills this weekend and found a place that I love, but I need to make some calls and see is it's already booked and how badly they want to gouge our guests and us (thanks Pen for the links, they helped). I'm not counting on getting the place so I'm still open to new locations, at this point it we could hold it in Montana, South Dakota, or Nebraska.

As for the bar, that's being discussed, I'm thinking limited alcohol, he wants a full open bar, and since there will not be a dance...My reasoning: 1. It's going to be an early afternoon wedding, reception to follow, how much booze are we really going to need?!? 2. I know that I will love my gown, but honestly that's a lot of fabric to be hauling about for more than a few hours (= 6-7 hours). 3. I saw what happened at my sis's wedding after people had too much to drink, I was ready to kill a brides maid, her husband, and the guy that she was sleeping with (we had no idea). 4. I don't want people to have to drive the Hills too late at night alcohol + winding roads = bad things (presuming that we hold it in the Black Hills). There are actually more reasons but those are the ones that made it to the surface first.

What else is going on here...

Not a lot going on here that isn't tied into wedding plans. I have looked at enough gowns (wedding and maid of honor), rings, flowers, hairstyles, invitations, and other assorted wedding related things, they are all starting to look the same. Aaron is helping with everything, which is a complete shock to not only me but also my family. Okay not everything, he refuses to help with the wedding gown, bad luck and all that. Apparently he was under the impression that I had "my wedding" planned out in my head since I was little, and was severely surprised that I didn't... do most women? I ask cause I don't know, I was busy beating up the boys (seriously they started it, I just fought better!) and climbing trees and such, planning a wedding was not on my to-do list when I was younger.

Going back to the gowns, well I have formed a committee to help with the selection for mine, thanks guys and gals in advance for helping. Sometimes it's better to have someone tell you when they think something would look horrible on you; being as that wedding gowns cost more then an outfit you wear to the club, I really want to know if it makes me look less than a princess. That brings us to the dress that Pen will end up in, her and I have both looked through several and I have to say that there are some ugly ass dresses out there! She however did a better job of finding ones that are lovely. So I think that once my gown is decided I will let her pick which dress she wants (I will of course reserve the right to veto), because honestly she knows what looks good on her, and she has to wear it. Note to Pen: Remember to pick something that you can dye a darker color and wear to an opera, musical, or some other event.

I have this feeling that my journal entries will be about wedding related stuff for a while... sorry people.

Now that I have dumped all of the current contents of my thoughts here, I think that I will go enjoy something non-wedding related.

Have a good one!

Calm before the storm

The news has finally settled into my head, now comes the planning. Actually there have been possible plans mentioned, now we start taking a serious approach to planning a wedding. The big question being will we make the date this year or next... well, good question I'll give you an answer when I know. This year, next year, I really don't mind either. How's that for laid back?

Moving along...

Job hunting - I hate it, need I say more. No that's not fair, I don't mind the hunting, it's the interviews. I always sit there thinking of something absolutely unrelated:

Hey, those are gang symbols inked all over the guys hands?... do I really want to work for someone like that? I suppose it doesn't matter. I used to have a lot of friends like that... hmm, not many of them around anymore, mostly dead or in prison...

Yeah, those thoughts slipped into my mind on the last interview that I went to, not very comforting in a possible employer. Though it is a little funny to me, he definitely didn't grow up around here, not much use for a gang in this small town.

In other news, actually I have none at the moment. I just felt the need to add a few unless sentences, for shits and giggles.

Have a good one!
