Well, my website…correction, ALL of my websites are down. I havent lost the data yet, but the server that hosted them all is screwed up. I have to rebuild the thing from scratch now. Wish me luck…

Another problem, The server won’t recognise the 60 GB drive I got so I need to do some massive maintenance on it. I might even just trash my 20GB desktop PC to swap the drives and I’ll use the 60 GB for network storage at my house…

I’ll troubleshoot the server a bit more tomorrow, and if I can’t get it up and running with in a reasonable amount of time I’ll swap drives with my desktop. Hell, I havent installed anything other than Mozilla and AIM on it yet so I might as well. Maybe even install a server OS on it and make a domain controller/file server out of it. I’ve been dying to try out Windows Server 2003 anyways 🙂

Now, just deciding between Redhat 9, Fedora 3 or Free BSD for the server itself… Any suggestions?

Tonight was my first saturday night out past 11:00! Hell, It’s my first saturday night out past 8:00 lately! It’s great having my weekends back. I decided not to go too crazy since it’s my first night to adjust to my new schedule.

Dave and Busters is a great place 🙂 For $20 I can roam around and play games for hours and at the end of the night, come home with 2 more D&B glasses for our kitchen (Yes, It’s sad, but these glasses are great. We’re considering looking for them of the un-branded variety) and a Dektop water cooler…Well, It doesn’t cool the water, but it stores 8 glasses of water so that I don’t have to keep getting up to go to the water cooler.

I finally have a day to myself. No Cablevision. No Radio Promotions. No Plans…. Just a day to relax and enjoy! It’s also a beautiful day! I might clean/wash my car… I might go checking out photography gear… I might just sleep in allllll day! Not get out of bed! 🙂

Plus, I have an extended weekend. I don’t have to wake up at a horribly early hour on Sunday to go to work I’m changing shifts, so I’ll be working from 2:30 PM to 11:00 PM…. Those of you who like hanging out during the week are going to miss me, however I will be able to actually hang out past 9 on Saturday nights 🙂 I’m still working Sun – Thu, but with a night shift I wont lose my weekends as I do now.

I just need to find those of you who are available to hang out late nights (after midnight!)…

Am I the only one who brought a sharpie into the voting booth and voted for Giant Douche and Turd Sandwich in this election?

Ugh! It’s been such a busy weekend! It feels so good to just lay in bed and ‘geek’ online for a bit…

Friday night was Rocky Horror… [see previous post]

Last night, I had 2 Halloween Parties to go to. I met up with Matt and we went to a friend’s party in Garden City. It was cool seeing a bunch of people who I dont see that often. I realize that I’ve lost touch with a lot of cool people.

Then Matt headed home and I met up with Liz and Scotto to go to Scott’s cousin’s party. I knew it was a ‘costume mandatory’ party, but I didn’t know that it was an ’80’s Theme’ party… Fortunately I went as the asshole…. It was a hit. The people who recognized it (and there were quite a few) were very impressed.

This morning, I had to be up early for work, so around midnight, I scrambled to find my Medieval costume… Thats what I wore to work today.. Again people got a kick out of it. I tend to be good at this costume thing. I need to keep coming up with cool costume ideas….

I was invited to see Rocky Horror again tonight. Aparently, a local playhouse runs it every weekend. I would love to check it out sometime, but I’m so exhausted…. Perhaps once I go to night shifts (and I have my saturday nights) I’ll be able to go. Anybody up for some RHPS with me?
