PCISD seems to have all of the yummy features that i want, but it’s much more expensive than the current frontrunner a-plus. Furthermore, PCISD doesn’t register names, so i have to pay for that separately. ugh.

Still no domain name. No one has the features i want/need, and there are harly any names in the big three [org, net, com] that i want. I would turn to Nu to register a good name, but none of their registrars seem to offer hosting, and i want centralized billing. This shouldn’t be so hard, damnit!

SO, i’m not sure what to pick. I need some fun one or two syllable word like frailty to hide behind on the internet. So, do i just whip out my dictionary and start looking, or does anyone have any ideas? I miss my computer… with all my class and work i really don’t ever have time to make a showing on Power Bloggers, which makes me feel like i’m totally out of the loop. Is there a loop? I think there is… getting randomly noticed by other sites, getting randomly linked, it’s a fun life. I just need attention, i suppose. But, anyway, i have this urge to overhaul the website but really have nothing to add to it, which is probably why i want to finally buy a domain name. Though, the acoustic guitar would be just as handy…

And now i’m wearing two pairs of socks because it’s frigid in here. I used to be okay with that, in my old house. My old house was so much like this place. However, i am not okay with it right now, because i don’t see any reason why i should have to be this cold at ten in the morning in october. I can hear church bells bleeding through my windows as though they’re coming from under water. There’re a lot of churches around here but i couldn’t really tell you which one is where. And i’m supposed to know these things. I’m off the the coffee shop again in about an hour, filling in for someone else. Yes, i must be a workaholic. With all this money, i’m either buying a guitar, Ani DiFranco tickets, or a domain name. But, which domain name would i buy? Krisis is all taken, as is Crashing. I don’t really like those .Nu sites becaue they’re just portals, and i’d like to go with a place that incorporates the domain fee into their hosting charges like A-Plus or Penny Host. But i want a nice short domain name, damnit! How do people come up with this witty short names….

It’s frigid in here, and outside it’s less than 50 degrees. I slept through more of my life last night, a party this time. It turns out i missed a good time at the open mic the nigt before. I didn’t really mean to miss the party either; a boy needs his sleep. The ‘Germany and the World of Hitler’ class is totally amazing, and i took pages upon pages of notes there. Afterwards i had lunch with Laurel and Justin (not the usual Justin), which was fun. I love to hang out with Laurel, and she might be leaving the country for her co-op, so i try to hang out with her as much as i possibly can. Afterwards we walked back home together and chatted. I got back home and had no interest in my guitar… i have weeks where it’s the sexiest thing on earth and week where i barely feel like playing a C-chord. At this point is was after 6pm, and i had been up since 4:30am, so i went to sleep either on the couch or in my bed (don’t remember). I wound up on the couch this morning because my computer’s alarm clock went off and i could hear it from my bedroom.

So, i blew off the open mic in exchange for glorious glorious sleep, and now i am well rested and off to work a morning at the coffee shop. Honestly, i don’t think i had anything to play at the open mic, which is pretty sad. I need to find some time to practice and write reguarly so i can be more excited about more of my songs.
