I’m baackkk!!

So, as most of you haven’t noticed, since no one really reads this thing… I lost my server over a week ago. Now I’ve finally gotten everything back and setup on a virtual machine, thanks to my friend Adam. Even though I was a wee bit (heh) behind on payments, he was still a good enough friend to hook me up with something that works for both of us. So now I can post all of my ramblings again that you probably won’t even read. :P

Nothing real exciting has gone on lately… I’ve caught a cold, that’s really it. I guess on another side note, I have been working on somewhat of a new exciting project. It’s a custom gallery I’ve built for myself. As it is currently it doesn’t really do much, but I have been working on the admin side of things to get everything going the way I think it should. Right now it adheres to a current directory layout parsing images and spitting out thumbnails. While I was developing, I figured… hey, why not do movies too? So I did… it also makes thumbnails for all kinds of movie files. I even added embeded HTML to allow for playing the videos, though I prefer the FLV method.

I’m not really sure when I’ll have a good preview available… I just kinda work on it when I’m bored. Anyway, I don’t have much to say besides that, so I’ll let you all get on with not reading this. Will post again soon, I hope.

Status Update: Part Deux

March 6, 2008LifeNo Comments

Just wanted to update everyone on the latest. I’ve found a temporary place to live until I can get things sorted out enough to find a more permenant home. Right now I’m back in the apartment and have the power on, though I have no running water since the water lines ran through the basement of the house. I’ll most likely be moving this Saturday/Sunday… but I don’t know how that’s going to effect internet and such. I’m hoping I can get all that hooked up by then. I’ll update again once I’m all moved.

Status Update

March 3, 2008LifeNo Comments

I don’t even know where to begin with this post. I’m really just posting to let everyone know that I might not be online a whole lot of the next few days. As some of you know, I live in an apartment above my girlfriend’s parent’s house. Well, last night around 3:30am there was a fire in the basement… everyone got out okay, but the house is devistated. It only burnt the basment and a little of the room above the basement, but everything in the house itself was destroyed by smoke. My apartment just got a little smoke in it, but everything is ok up there. I feel so bad for my g/f’s family because they basically lost everything.

Right now I’m staying in a hotel for a couple nights until I can get power hooked back up to the apartment. From there I’ve got to get in and get all of my stuff packed up, and then find a new place to live. The g/f’s family has already got a couple things lined up for them as they’re getting a lot of help, which is good. I don’t know how long it will take to get power back, or even if I will be able to. So my connectivity will be very on/off for the next few days at least. I’ll keep everyone updated as to what’s going on… I just ask for prayers and thoughts as we go through this challenging time. Thanks.
