Yes. Yes I am. I left almost on time this morning and got to Tuscaloosa at a reasonable hour. I should have just enough time to unpack, stay up all night, then get up and drive to Atlanta late tomorrow afternoon. The little truck is certainly being put through a good little work out this [...]

It seems like only a few days ago I was cruising up I-57 between Effingham and Champaign, now I’m preparing for the reverse trip. What’s that? It WAS only a few days ago? Oh. That’s right. Nevertheless, it seems like such a short break, but it’s been restful. Tonight I’ll finish up The Fellowship of [...]

Having been caught up in finishing book one of The Fellowship of the Ring, I was a little delayed in Fiving tonight. Never the less, here are the five questions posted by Heather at The Friday Five. Feel free to answer for yourself in my comments box or on your own site.. 1.If you could eat [...]

I went in for a teeth-cleaning today. That’s what happens when one’s mother works at a dentists office. I was permitted to drive the Corvette around today. I really shouldn’t get used to that. It’s just amazing: cruising down the road, cruise set at 70mph, the car hardly doing 2000rpms. What I wouldn’t give to [...]

Today was a good day. I spent the better part of last night reading, I’m finally getting around to reading Lord of the Rings. I’m several chapters in to the first book and loving it so far. It should also be noted that my loving parents are trading me vehichles. They’re getting my car all [...]

I had planned on stopping in Murphysboro, today, and splitting up my 10 hour drive. When I hit the Illinois border, though, I was feeling so good that I decided to just finish it off. I got in a little after midnight and was greeted by two new vehichles (Where do these things COME from??), [...]

Everything is, strangely, going according to plan. The site migration happened yesterday… PHP/MySQL is sooo much faster than ASP/Access. Today I begin the drive home. I have no aversion to hopping in the car and driving for 10 hours, the only problem is that it requires me to wake up much earlier than I normally [...]

Well, folks… it’s finished. (Well, as finished as anything on the web can be) I’ve completed my move from HWebTech to Holidian. If you’re reading this, you’ve obviously found the new place. Again, big thanks to Amy and Cathy for trying (and not unsuccessfully, either) to break the new site. Things should work better now than [...]

Cable internet, a fast computer, and Instant Messenger left on constantly can really grow on a person. Today at around 3:00am we experienced “Cable Difficulties” that lasted almost twelve hours. I spent quite a while on the phone with tech support, but everything is just fine now. It’s odd, though, how useless the computer seems [...]

wipes sweat from brow It’s been a long and arduous day of coding. I’m so close now that I can taste it. Book marks will need to be updated soon… which is sad because I JUST GOT LINKED by some very nice people (Batgrl, Eric, Faith, and maybe others?) Whew… at any rate, before I [...]
