ARGH TO SCRIPTS I SAY!!


<3 chelle
Not much to go over today really, very few events, which could be summed up into about two paragraphs... I guess we'll just see how good I am at stretching out very little, into a long and boring entry! Wouldn't be the first time I've done it :P I really am getting quite sick of sleeping late, accomplishing nothing and never feeling good about anything thouhg... and I'm hoping that will change in the near future... because I don't think I can take much more of this.

I spent most of the first part of my day restarting Final Fantasy 3j, starting right from the beginning and playing through it again, which was still indescribably fun, as is most of the game (save for the toad and mini parts..grr). I did that off and on for quite a few hours... around six, even when Emily got home I just kept going becacuse it had sucked me in and wouldn't let go (kinda sounds like your mom! BURN!). At one point during my playing though, my body quickly reminded me that I actually had to eat something at some point in the week to actually stay alive, so I stumbled half alive to the kitchen, with Emily, and made nice, fresh sandwhiches (chicken breast!) and it really was quite nummy. Lots of lettuce, lots of mayo, lots of chicken... lots of white bread.. couldn't get any better than that, or you'd have to call it subway, and that my friends, would be copyright infringment.

a battle!
After I had made enough progress in FF3j to be satisfied, and my eyes nearly fell out of my head from not blinking, I relaxed on the bed and watched Emily play Final Fantasy 8 for a bit, which she is still enjoying to my knowledge, and she's actually making quite a bit of progress, already being on the second disk. That about sums up my afternoon though...

The majority of my evening and night... well, more or less the entire time was spent coding. I started work on an automated comment script, in which the reader clicks a link, is brought to a form to fill out, fills it out and then that information is automatically added to a persons journal. Well... I got frustrated, and stuck, and figured things out and almost punched through a monitor, but you know what? It's 1:48am right now, and the comment script is working and functional. I've tested it and it works!! It's not completely done, I have to make it a bit more customizable, so people can use it on their own sites, then I have to add a nice ending page which says, "thank you for your comments" and so on, which I haven't done yet, but I will tomorrow most likely (I'm getting a pretty bad headache now, so I'm fine with just ending the night with my current accomplishments). It really did impress me that I managed to do it, and in one night no less, and I felt very good about it, considering it's the first 'real' project I've done with PHP (a web based programming language)... I taught myself PHP off of a googled site in one night, which either means it's a really easy language, or I caught on really fast. Anyway, you won't be seeing this comment script appear on this website most likely, because there will be an automatic comment script enabled on the new webkore edition of excessive rambling, coming in January 2005, so it would be pointless to go through the trouble of setting it up on here. It will however be in use on Emily's website (it is right now actually, for testing purposes). I will be making a website to support this script once it's completed, to make it available for others to download, learn from, read about etc.. but how long that will take me is unknown.. as you all probably know, I have a horrible time actually doing things. I guess I'd say give it about a week to get up, maybe two if I'm real lazy.

I got a call from GTN today, my employer, and Kandie, the head of human resources, called to update me on what is going on. Apparently the company in which they are arranging a contract of work with, keeps delaying because of the hurricanes near florida, and how they don't want to start up until that's all calmed down (does that make any sense to anyone? No one? Darn..) but that even that day, Kandie and Jim had a meeting and discussed how they wanted to keep me on board, and she apologized for it taking so long, and told me that it wouldn't be frowned upon if i looked for another job, she said that I just had to keep myself open to GTN employment (as I did sign a contract of employment or something.. I dunno). To sum this up: GTN wants me to work on this new contract. The people who are signing the contract dont wanna yet.. which means I sit at home until they do. I'm still on board though and that gives me hope, because I know at some point in the future, I will have a job, and there is no question about that. Makes me feel good...

Tomorrow Michelle is going to be coming over after her and Emily are finished school, and then staying the night, which should be great. As you could probably tell by what I've written earlier, I love our slumber parties. I look forward to tomorrow and the fun it will bring! Also, Michelle and I have discussed perhaps going to see a movie this coming sunday just like old times, me and her, meeting at macs and seeing some bad movie at rainbow... twould be quite great, as I sometimes miss those days *remembers*. Not sure what movie we'd see or anything, but I have some time to look into it.

I've been feeling sick a lot lately... not sure why really. Perhaps I could improve my eating habits, but it's hard when I don't have a set schedual I stick to each day. My mind has also been going nuts... I'm quite obviouslly very manic, and that, as it always does, drives me to complete insanity. I can't sit still, I can't think straight, every thought I have shoots in and out of my mind faster than I can grasp it or express it. I'm always hot, then I'm cold.. .my head feels like it's going to explode and my vision blurs because I'm unable to process everything at once... and it's just.. very.. unenjoyable. My energy level is so high, but I'm so easily ticked off, frustrated and annoyed, that it really does me know good... anyone want to help me? please...?


Oh, I guess I should pass this along to make sure as many people as possible read it:

So The Fetish Masquerade have taken quite the break - yes it is true.
But that deffinately does not mean we have not been working hard
lately. none the less i shall reach my point. I hate competition, and
i hate voting mixed with bands - but this was brought to my attention,
and as much as i also dont completely enjoy the New Scream event,
support your fellow electronic ROCKers (our new name will not be
revealed as of YET!!! mwaha)
simply click on the link here and vote for The Fetish Masquerade to play
at the New Scream special event. Votes are low, as i just found out
about this, but lets change that my beauties.

Well, I'm going to go nurse my headache with medication, coke and chips, and ff3j, so I guess this is goodnight to all you fans. Check back tomorrow for another entry... and... send in your comments!
