first, happy belated new year. second, remember the list of resolutions i made last month? i’m doing a good job so far on them. right now i am working on the kitsumuck website, and progress is going smoothly. i’ve found a nice new web-based MUD client that kicks the ass of the crappy Java client that’s been in use for over two years. it’s got lots of neat features, and is in active development. so, i am going to stick to that one from now on. all i have left to finish is the profiles section, and that should be cake once i get the information imported from the MUCK’s database into the SQL database to make things a lot less hackish. i’m just going to need to make a backend in PHP so the MUCK can update the SQL database through that instead of its SQL functions because apparently, those tend to lock up the MUCK. (wow, that sounded confusing when i read over it)
on other news, i’ve scored myself a 5 day weekend by requesting 3 days paid vacation over the weekend. this would be the third day. monday and tuesday are my normal days off. the main reason i did this was to take a break from .. well, dealing with assholes. i needed to do this so i can relax, and clear my mind…and get some shit done that i’ve been falling behind on.
next up on my list would be my writings. also, what am i going to do for kitsune paradise? hmmm….
so, it’s december already. meaning 2008 is almost over. it has been a pretty good year, i survived it, so that’s good. i’m no longer living with alynna, she moved out a month ago due to problems with the other roommates. i couldn’t go with her because i still had a job here. she’s apparently happy where she is now, so it’s okay.
and since it’s december, that means i have to tolerate all this christmas crap. okay, so i don’t hate the holidays. but constantly hearing that music over and over burns me out on it. the good part of working graveyard, i can listen to whatever music i want. none of this 24/7 christmas music bullshit. i’m okay with hearing it once in a while, but christ. anyways, i can’t hate christmas, because it happens to be the day i brought digital gate online. it’s an important day in kitsune paradise‘s history. the day the server was able to stay online 24/7. (my rants about the crappy linksys hardware aside). since it’s going to be the 5th anniversary, i’m going to have to do something special. (and fast)
and when the new year comes, i’m probably going to have to come up with some ‘new years resolutions’. you know, things that i say i am going to do but i end up … not doing them. but this time, i’m going to do it, for real. a possible list of resolutions?
- stop fucking slacking on projects
- breathe life into kitsumuck
- get out more often
- see about going to school
yeah. the first one, i really need to work on. hell, i might start on that now. or i might go to bed after writing this post. i don’t know. i don’t feel tired.
once again, body. fuck you. be more energized when i want to do stuff. i sleep too much as it is. >:(
i’ve got a lot to get done on kitsune paradise and kitsumuck, yet i’m feeling so fucking sluggish, it’s not even funny. fuck you, body. try being more energized more than just during peak times during the night while i’m at work. how about when i am at home, on my computer, wanting to do some skinning on a website, or some work on a story? yeah, that would be great.
seriously. i’ve been slacking too much, and i’ve gotta stop. i need to start working on shit again.
