my ultimate fanlisting!

I’ve never used this word before, but …

squeeeeee!!

I got approved for The Cardigans fanlisting!!!!! Two years after the first time I applied … the first time I ever applied at TheFanlistings(.net), and I got turned down. It was given to someone who only updated like 2 or 3 times … But yay I got it!! XD *dancey*

Now to actually make it … o.o

ezboard board

Wow. I was thinking of my Homestead account, which I had thought I couldn’t use … because of ActiveX controls or whatever … *waits for the search hits on “ActiveX” to rise up again* … but I can use it on Firefox! I just had to stop being stubborn and allow Homestead to store their cookie on my computer. haha. So. Yeah. Wow. I had lots of old images there. Most of it was requests for Evanescence graphics … I wish people would make requests for graphics on ev_layouts again. pooh. (Yeah, I go through one period where I prefer graphics editing, then another where I’d much rather code layouts …) But some of them were used waaaay back when on ezboard. :O

So. Yeah. That lead to me replacing all the broken images on my board. Then I rearranged things … deleted forums … went through some old topics and deleted some … I’ve decided that there are things there I want to save, so I’m going to weed through the rest of the topics there and save the funny/weird/memorable ones. heehee.

Yeah … I spent, I think, maybe three hours on that … how sad. ehehe.

“don’t worry, I get hyper from weird things too. like Trowa being used as a human dart. WAHAHA!!”

I am probably the only one laughing … oh well! *laughs*

coding discrepancy

It’s funny. These two archive pages are running off the same linked stylesheet, yet they’re displayed differently in IE. Why is that?

[dead links redacted; they went to pMachine’s general archive page and single entry archive page]

I also found another discrepancy between Mozilla and IE. That would be the heading tags. Why the heck does Firefox show these headings in nice small pretty text and IE shows them as freaking huge ugly things??

posts overlapping…

Dang. I don’t like coding and stuff at the moment. Either I understand php very very little … or the coding is just being weird. Hm, which one, I wonder …

I wonder if I could make this area all light color [just from text]. >) I’d be tempted to try if I didn’t have to go delete those entries later. muahaha.

But whatever. I looked it over and I just don’t understand what’s wrong, so I ain’t a-fixin it.

Also … maybe it’s just my server, but WordPress updates entries awfully slowly.

fs.net

Yesterday

Me: YAY! fs.net is back up! *backs up MySQL databases*

e-mail from HostAffect: We sold all you guys to a new company! Rejoice!

Me: o_o No ****

Today

e-mail from HostAffect Steadfast Networks: *flowery* Changes! We’re also moving you to our servers in Chicago. “…the full moving process will likely take two days.”

Me: O_o

webhostingtalk forums search on steadfastnetworks: No bad news! But everyone’s talking mostly about dedicated servers and resellers, which you’re not using!

Right Now

Me: o.o … ???

I don’t know, maybe I’ll stay with this Steadfast hosting. I don’t have any money for new hosting anyway. ^_^;;; SFN has been around for 5? years now, so that’s cool. Since I’ve seen mainly hosting companies that have existed for only a year or months all this week … I’m leaning toward trusting them. :b They also don’t seem to be underpricing themselves, looking at the shared hosting. >_> I don’t know if I’m allowed to use Daddy’s credit card every month for a $5 charge. I also don’t know if I have the mind to remember to pay every month. *shrug*

I have to e-mail them about their “extra domains are $2 a month” line. Does that mean an addon domain, or actually hosting the domain on the server? Okay, that question doesn’t make much sense. x_x I don’t like contacting support people. I always feel stupid. But maybe it was just the Endore support … I contacted Your-Site.com support ’cause I had a question about these hits for .pl scripts in my logs, and they didn’t make me feel stupid. :) I dunno.

My mind is going byebye. I’m writing down all these different things, aren’t I? Maybe I should ask, or would the domain itself be included in the hosting package … ?? I dunno. Why do I own two domain names? And I want a third. :b

I’m tired now. And hot. Why is it so hot now?

I just realized SFN doesn’t have a 30-day money back guarantee. O_o They don’t have any money back guarantee. That’s just … weird.

Hey lookie, it says “Hosting for up to 3 domains” under their $20/mo deal. I wonder if that’s different than what they said in the other line. I dunno. Maybe I could ask, Is that addon domains or something else? Hur hur, yeah, something else. Smart brain, oh yes.

… Okay I’ll stop thinking about that.

During classes today I kept adding things to a to-do list. I think I did all the really important stuff. I don’t really know though. >_> My brain is kind of lost and drifting around. But I still feel like I have things to do. I could look over my math homework. I don’t really see the point though, if my mind isn’t going to understand it. Even in chem today I kept making weird mistakes on the math.

I got my chem quiz back, and I did even worse on this one than the last one. >_>;; I thought I’d done really well on it. But I guess I didn’t. See, there were eight questions. I got all the points up to the third to last one, where I made one stupid mistake and got the wrong answer. I got partial credit on that, but the next two questions built up on that one question, so … I got those two completely wrong and I didn’t get any credit on either of those. *sighs* 32 out of 50. I know I have a credit/no credit thing in that class, but still, I’m (maybe stupidly) hoping that I’ll get an A in chem 1A next semester. So that way I could get a B in Speech. >b

Earlier today I was really irritated. Now I’m uncomfortable because of some heat that seems to surround me and depressed because of my stupidity.

Anyway. Uh. I think that’s all I did today. Look up stuff on hosting. Also read blogs/journals. Made one icon that I don’t really like but MEH. Made two other icons from Get Fuzzy comics that are all right, but … they’re not very icon designery, if you know what I mean. … Crop, text, and a border, voila, icon.

Okay okay okay enough of that. Last night I bought Hot Gimmick vol. 4 for only $2.32. XD Waldenbooks emailed me a 20% off coupon, which I coupled with my 10% Reader’s Discount and my $5 off coupon. Yeah. XD I’m maybe 2/5 through it. I don’t really know why I stopped reading it. o.o

Record to self: turned laptop on sometime around 2:20. Off of standby … I don’t remember. 2:35? Laptop still unresponsive, put it on standby again … 3:00 still unresponsive … pushed the power button over and over and it started up nicely, but then it wouldn’t really do anything. (I tried to restart so I could connect to the internet.) So I took out all the power sources and started it up again and it worked. That was maybe 3:30.
