Oh my freakin' gawd! It works! It actually works!
Oh crap. It works. That means I'm going to have to start writing again. This can't be good. Or can it? I don't know. I just finished my work week with an average of five hours of sleep per night, I think. I may be generous there. Needless to say I'm a little spacey right now. WooOOoOoo!
And I'm going driving after supper. In the rain. With a child. We're going to a book store because I want some new books, and I'm tired of the pissy selections at the nearby department store and drugstores. I've been finding myself reading a lot when I'm riding the bus lately, but if a book is good enough, I can' t wait for my next trip to pick it up again, meaning I finish too soo. So I need some new books.
Finally some good news. I'M FINALLY GETTING MY OWN COMPUTER! I was going to get one through Dell, and I have been approved for credit, but then I found out I could get a more powerful system through work for roughly the same price, and the exact same monthly payments. Heck, yes.
I've gotta go now, but don't let me forget later to tell you of my plan to jump out of an airplane in September...

Here it is, almost the end of the month, and still no sign of this damned bug being fixed. Think maybe I should look into DiaryLand?

What a day. When I got home from work last night, I found out one of the girls was in the hospital. Yeesh. She's fine now, can only use one arm for a while, but crap, I hate when they get hurt.
And then this morning I woke up to an overflowing toilet leaking through to the basement and onto my freshly laundered clothes! Damn it! Luckily I made it to work on time, no thanks to having to put them through again.
So... How was your day?

Yup, I got some great pictures. Too bad I didn't really have time to enjoy myself, having to rush through the zoo somewhat. It's my fault really for answering the phone, which meant that I was asked to come in to work. I could have said no. The problem there is I wouldn't have had all those overtime hours which may just end up going towards paying for me to jump out of an airplane.
So my "weekend" turns out to be just one day long. No big whoop. After this week I get a long weekend. Ha! Schedules were changed around today, so I'm now working another six day stretch and I'm back down to two days off. Nice. On the bright side this last shift was just outrageously busy, and I barely had time to stand up and stretch (always a good idea, sitting down for hours on end can be potentially dangerous). Heck, I didn't even really have time to eat.
Bleh.

So the thing is I can write and write, but I have no idea when you'll be able to read my words. Oh well. I will still keep writing.
I need to work on the new site. I already have something kinda done, but I'd be lying if I said I'm happy with it. This new site will be my biggest yet, and because of that I want it to be the best. It's going to be the only one I'll be promoting once it's done.
It's 3:30am. I really need to go to bed. The plan is in the afternoon, weather permitting, I will be going to the zoo. Yay! I love the zoo! Here I am, **-years-old, and I still get excited over seeing all the animals. The digital camera's coming with me, so hopefully there'll be some decent pictures for me to use.

Damn it. The FTP finally starts working again and what happens? Something else gets screwed up. Sheesh. It's almost enough to make me want to go back to writing these things right into the HTML. Well, I'll write this and try publishing, see what happens.
By the way, I'm very tired. I'm working the graveyard shift this week and it's been incredibly busy at work. It's just totally wiping me out. It could be worse though. It could be the day shift. Those play the most havok with my natural sleep cycle.

I have to go to work tonight for what will be, if it's busy, a 10 hour shift. Of course the irony is that if it is busy, I will get tired faster, and that means I'd want to go home earlier. Ugh. The nice thing though is that the office is air conditioned, it's night, and this heatwave we're having won't be so unbearable.

Yes yes yes yes YES! I'm at home! We finally got ourselves hooked up again, so now I can get serious about keeping this diary updated! Not just that, but I can finally work on my new website the way I should be and have it set up the way I want it. Oh, this is good. This is very good. Now there is only one concern. Getting people to start reading this, and to get them to START POSTING COMMENTS! I think I've only ever seen one, may two people click on "Comments" below and leave one. The thing about that is you can use it to have conversations or just comments about any of the nonsense I write about here. Yay!
Anyway, I'll be writing more later. This is so good that I can actually do that again without worrying about messing up the computer at work.

I've been thinking about regrets. You know, how we're not supposed to have any when we die. Well, unless everything we ever dream of and strive for happens flawlessly, we're going to have them, and if not then we should. It's easy not to have any if you never want anything more than what's thrown at you. If I died tomorrow, I'd regret never travelling to places I'd like to see or skydiving or learning pottery. I already have regrets about choices I didn't make, and some I did, but many of those choices I'd have regretted if I didn't take. I was once in a rut for a good eight years, just coasting along and not taking risks. I made bad choices about post-secondary education, but at least I took the chances.
So next time someone says you shouldn't have regrets, smack them upside the head. Of course you should. Just don't make them unbearable ones.

Holy crap it worked! Yay! Wow! Now maybe it's time to start making entries again! Well, when I'm not tired from work. It's been a really long day. I bought some new furniture last week. How's that for news? Not all that hot, huh. Bleh. I need to go home and sleep. Maybe I'll write something tomorrow if I haven't lost all my readers thanks to the FTP problems.
