James' Ramblings

It's coming down to the wire now. I have all the things for the website set up. All it needs to do is for my domain name to recognize my new hosting and it'll begin. I have to go put flyers and such up around campus tonight. I'll let Laura do the design. I hope this really works out. Anywho, got my Astro test back and got a 88%. Not bad eh? Rod, however, didn't fare as well, but he wouldn't disclose his score. Goes to show that goofing off and not taking notes kinda hurts when it comes to it. I have been discussion on the forum at the paranormal site pretty intensely today. Did not much else. Turns out that my Mom has also reserved the 10th of next week as the day for the free night at the casino hotel. That's the same day Laura and I are going there...weird huh? I heard from a co-worker that this time of year is cold for New Mexico so I should bring some warm clothes and possibly get ready for some snow there. I thought it didn't snow in the southwest? Aside from that I have to get a couple of things done homework wise before this trip. Also, the package containing the data cable that was allegedly sent via USPS priority mail on Tuesday wasn't here today. Seems kind of odd, but it better come tomorrow, or this money I spent was down the drain. I want to surf the net this weekend dammit! I am so impatient for this website to go online! I know it's going to take 1-2 days for the change to occur on the settings that I had to set, but still, I just want it to go faster. Hopefully by tomorrow morning it'll be up...but with my luck, it probably won't. The launch date is supposed to be tomorrow, but I may have to change it to the 8th, just in case. But I don't want to have the students try to actually go to the website when it's not there and get a message saying that it's not there. I want it to be there. Chances are they probably won't come back if they're not interested when they first get there. I am getting used to the new stuff I have to learn for setting up my own site and what not. I had read a little about how to set up a message board and it doesn't seem hard, but I'm sure I'll run into some problems. The problem is that I have to pay another $10 to setup a database access thing for my hosting to be able to run the message board. I am contemplating even putting on up, but I think it would be for the better. I'll have that answer by next week or so. I am kinda low on money right now, you know what I mean? My credit card is rapidly increasing as we speak. I need to cut back. My Mom is going to Japan in a couple of weeks. Ben's b-day is coming up and he's going to Las Vegas. Oh yeah, I haven't said anything about my dentist's appointment that I had this week in years. Well, luckily I only have one cavity, which considering I haven't gone since I put my braces on is quite incredible. For me anyway. Next Friday I have to fill that cavity in, then in a week go to the ortho to put the permanent retainer on the bottom. Thank god, because this temporary retainer is a bitch to talk with. Among other things, that's it. Really. This is the longest posting I've done in a while. Depending on whether or not I get the data cable, I won't be writing for a while.
