Oh Busy Life!!
This is going to be a pretty quick and maybe short post, who knows. Brian is coming over in a couple minutes so we can have some BBQ time! Hehe. I dunno if it'll be the last one of the season but surely one of. I love BBQs! :) Such yummy food hehe. I think tonight we're doing some steak and chicken and corn on the cob. I'd love to get some ribs too though.

What else, ever since I quit my job, or I dunno if you'd say that but the business was over, I've been riding like as much as I can. I spent like 12-14 hours out there with the horses, it's so much fun. I go on trail rides that last for hours on end, I just get lost out in the woods, and just enjoy the beautiful state that I live in. I really love living here. Sometimes I even bring Kiara along which she loves!

We created a new social networking site called RocketShipz (http://rocketshipz.com) and it's a bit different then these LJ based websites. Check it out, I'd love to see a couple more people on there and if you don't sign up, pass it along to your friends. :)

I really want to get more into PHP coding, maybe...I really want to work on Confessh.us and get more features and things built-in. Plus PHP is a really neat language. I also need to finish my CCNA studies up. I'm like 4-5 chapters from completing the book and I really need to do it now before I forget everything I've learned. I think tomorrow, I will actually pick it up again and get it done :) Chris will be happy/proud of me :)

I've started playing Wolfenstein since I got my Xbox 360 hacked up to the latest firmware. It's awesome :) vaporizing people is excellent.

Anyways, gotta run now. have a lovely day peepz xoxoxox

I'm Not Dead! x.X!
 I've been so busy as of late. I've been at horse shows, and then Brian and I finally took our vacation to Montreal. it was so much fun, although I wish it hadn't taken us so long to do it haha. Then when I got back I arranged to have my Internet which resulted in my stuff being offline for 3-4 days...haha I had to get my new Palm Pre tethered up so I could do some work lol.

Hrmm, what else. our movie rental application is pretty much done. Our completion date is the 22nd, which also happens to be MY BIRTHDAY! :D Hehe

I got a bunch of new music today and I got season 3 of The IT Crowd. I'm watching the first episode right now, and it's so funny. I love this TV series haha. As for new music, I think there's like 5-6 new bands that I got that I really enjoy! The new caliban album is really awesome, but the new Thrice album is pretty crap...at least compared to their other ones.

Anyways, I am going to continue watching these episodes. I can't get enough of it!! :)

Sing the Sorrow
Wow, yesterday I finally finished up most of the Confessh.us coding. What a project that was. I'm very excited to show everyone. There's still one feature we've not added in yet, so I think I'll hold off until it's finished. It's tagging, and it's one of the hardest things to implement, that I can think of. We're very close, I think I would like to shoot for launching next week if possible!

This week is supposed to be really crappy weather-wise so I guess it'll be mostly a movie and fine tuning the code on the site week. I'm okay with that, I guess. I did really want to be out riding and having fun, but there'll be plenty of time for that in the coming days and weeks. I really hope I can get into an OP for airsoft soon, I am so sad that I missed the OP the other weekend, I am sure it was amazing!! Also show season starts soon, I've gotta pretty up the ponies, and get myself ready.

Hrmm, so I've also been working a bit with [info]jimmy  on  making some new styles for Scribbld, you can see what we've done by going into Manage --> Viewing Options. Had a bit of trouble with the CSS sizing and margin crap but it should be fixed now :) If anyone wants, you're more then welcome to submit your own color scheme! The colors we would like are:
  •  background color
  • header color
  • navigation tab color
  • content background color
  • link color
and I think that's it. Also I might be giving away some free PAID accounts, in trade for some J-Rock/Pop music. First I've got to put together a list of albums I already have. So yeaaaah! :)

Just chillen at work today, nothing special happening. Just chatting with a couple friends, I can't wait to go home and just relax :)

Code Code Code!!!
Been really busy the last couple of days working on Confessh.us and it's definitely been a lot of fun, but of course frustrating. Mostly frustrating because I don't really know enough PHP to build an actual functioning ANYTHING with it. But the odd thing is we're really getting a lot done regardless of me not "knowing" PHP. We've actually really only got like 3 large pieces of the website to go, the user page, tagging and something else, but now I've forgotten haha. I am hoping to have a usable site done within the next week or so. Then I'll open it to beta testing! I'm very excited!

So that's pretty much what I spent yesterday doing. I worked on it from when I woke up until about 12-1pm. Then I got mad because I was having so many issues with sessions and stuff, that I was so close to just scrapping the project. [info]ltdan  got mad at me and I think I went off to work on some other web code, Laconica, which is quite cool. But then I was like, I can't let him down, or myself, so I started working on the code again. And we worked until like 12am and got SO much done, to the point where we're only needing like 3 pieces left. He's working on tagging. It's definitely the hardest if not the hardest piece of the whole site haha. I am hoping that he's learning from it too. I've definitely learned a lot during this project. I really like it.

Today, not much is going on, chatted with [info]ltdan this morning. Had some breakfast and then just watched some TV and took a nap. I think I am going to head outside though, I might take a nice walk with the dog, or go play with the horses. I hope everyone has had a lovely weekend! Enjoy the last few hours!

Yay for Coding!
 These past couple days, I've been really busy working on that new web project, and I'm finally ready to share a bit about it. basically it's a confessions website where people can go and submit confessions (they can be done anonymously, but you must make an account to submit them). Then people can "like" or even comment on them. You can check it out here:

http://confessh.us

You can see some of the mockups I've been working on by looking at this Flickr set. So pretty much we've got down the idea of what is it and how we want it to work. Now we've just got t get started on coding it up...which is going to be rather interesting since I don't know a whole lot about PHP and MySQL. It'll definitely be a BIG learning project haha.

Right now, there's not much to do other then sign up to get notified when we need beta testing :) But definitely sign up!

Other then that, I've been really busy with the boyfriend and stuff. Had a really nice weekend helping [info]ltdan get OS X installed on his Dell Mini. We probably spent like 24+ hours total trying to get his working. Mine worked in about 45 minutes haha And 95% of that time was waiting for it to install itself haha. I actually wrote about it and took some pictures on WithinMorgan.com so check it out! :)

Yesterday, I finished up some repairs I had and also finished up the 2 scripts needed for Confessh.us. Got home, worked on getting of my written labs or chapter 3 CCNA done. Then I completely finished the last script for Confessh,us and then [info]ltdan and I did our study/review session. I got so angry at one question, but then I figured it out after like 30 minutes of hell. Haha. After that, I worked on Confessh.us some more, and chatted with a couple friends.

I got my 2GB RAM chip in this morning for my Dell Mini netbook, so after I finish this entry I'll install it and the netbook will be much happier :) So that's about all that's going on with me, sorry about not checking/commenting on friends stuff, I've been ridiculously busy! I hope everyone is well!!
