Blog Updates
Posted on | February 25, 2008 | 2 Comments
Just wanted to update some readers since I’ve been receiving numerous e-mails asking what’s up (had a message saying there were some problems on the previous theme, but comments were disabled on there for some reason–php error–so I decided to just make a blog post).
1) Ran into a huge hosting mess. Thankfully I have (2) companies and backups are always placed after every update (except for one site) on BOTH servers–even though one isn’t used. That was major headache #1. I did lose some important stuff but whatever, not going to worry about that right now. E-mail hosting provider about uhhhh 40 times in the last 6 months to make sure this wouldn’t happened. Tried to prepare for the worst (with the backup), but got busy with some stuff two weeks ago and totally forgot all about it.
2) Huge downtrend in revenue. Seriously. In terms of percentages what was being made before compared to now is hilarious–well sort of. I really can’t even remotely sit and worry about it right now just because things are just getting backed up and more problems start racking up each day. Life is a mess.
3) Insane amounts of work that needed to be done this week and is carrying over into next week. HOPEFULLY things start returning back to normal on Thursday–except I’ve arranged a day with a friend to assist him in internet marketing and blog management (how ironic in a weird way? lol).
4) A friend passed away which really just got me to sit down and ponder about life. You know how sometimes something so dramatic happens where you just start questioning everything? Yeah… sort of in that situation right now. R.I.P Danny…
I need to make a public apology to Jason @ The University Kid. I tried contacting you earlier this week about my arranged guest post on your blog and I did have a rough (rough-rough) draft of the post. It was extremely crappy and I was working on it and making it shiny and worthwhile to post up, then this just all happened. I also lost the draft 3 days ago (was on the laptop–I wrote it during financing class) and then my laptop crashed, but I got it back and ahh… long story there. The rough draft is with me and I’ll get it up as soon as possible. Just wanted to say “SORRY” I couldn’t have it up by February 16, 2008 like I originally told you. Things just piled up and became a mess. Hopefully one more backlink from this blog will make things up to you? LOL. A little humor? 
Alright I can keep going on and on about stuff, but I’m just going to stop. There’s a good amount of information written above to explain things to a certain extent. I do have three drafts ready for Fka200.com about blogs and such, so expect those by next week. I’m also going to be working on some layout changes once things have cleared up. I do have a “get away” planned for Saturday March 1, 2008 just to relieve some built up stress from these past two weeks, so I’ll get to that after wards… but I’m in desperate need for a layout change. Will the evolution of the blog, things have started to get extremely disorganized. I also said if I reach a certain number in terms of uniques, I’ll def. consider a layout change. Well, I broke that number… so hurray!
I still have been answering e-mail requests. I’ve been doing a sloppy job, but still answering them. I think the longest it took me to answer an e-mail was 3 days? So not bad in case you need anything. Just use the contact form. I was going to post something else, but I just can’t remember what. Frantically writing this post just so I can carry on with the stuff that needs to be taken care of before March 9, 2008.
For all the Parking Panel questions that have been coming in, I hear that there will be some “positive changes” happening soon. Keep your eyes open for that. I’ll def. be reporting on that regardless of what’s going on. Important news will still be posted if I can this week, so yup. Enjoy everyone. Live life to the fullest… safely!

Reading your article I have noticed that you have one of those day’s.
Yeah it makes us all think what life is all about – it is a journey of self discovery some people never discover themselves due to chasing the $$ or otherwise (ignorance)they never have time for themselves.
