It is Finished!!!
It's FINALLY finished! I've spent the last few days working on completely remaking my portion of this web side. First I started with the buttons, made them into rollovers which I had no idea how to do until Travis told me, then I worked on the front page. It probably took 5 hours on one day, and about 2 more hours of the next day to finish that first page. For some odd reason, IE and Firefox don't read HTML the same way so when I would view my page, it would look normal in IE but really messed up in Firefox. So thats what took an extra 2 hours the next day. Also on day two, I updated this page with the new style and layout. It didn't take to long because most of it was just copy and paste from the front page but making the calanders was particularly fun to do since I had been struggling with how to do them in the other layout. I really like how they are just tucked away nicely right below the buttons now. Today my task has been to update the photo page with 1) the new layout and 2) alot more photos on there since I actually have some. After I got all of that done I wanted to figure out how to make text pop up when you hold your mouse over the picture. That took a little bit of online searching to do, but I did figure it out and I really like it. It adds a nice little flavor to it when you can see comments on the picture. Also, instead of just sizing down a 1.5meg picture for the thumbnail on the main photo page, I actually made smaller versions of the picture and just linked them to the large versions. This should cut down on loading times for anyone who is using still using dial up *cough* Joseph *cough*

Cock-blocked
Another month is gone and a new one begins. That much closer to the return of school and the return of some friends of mine. I was in Kharma this morning and to my surprise there were actualy a few good looking girls in there today. Unfortunitly, two of them were sitting together and the third was sititng with a guy already. I grabed my cup of coffee and sat against the wall so I could keep an eye on the two girls sitting together at one of the booths. Now, its always been a rule of mine to never approach two girls at once, I dont know why, but when girls are together they wont open up because they are trying to show off to their friend. Either one, they will try to out flirt the other if you are cute enough, two they will be afraid to flirt because the other wont think you are cute, or three, they will both be afraid to flirt because their best friend is there and therefore, not talk to you at all. So as i was sitting there just doing my eye candy thing a "smooth" looking black guy comes in and sits strait down with them. I mean he made a bullseye right towards them as soon as he came in. "High my names blablabla, nice to meet yall." I was like wow, that takes balls, but hey he was black, he can get away with it....Thats r ight, I went there. Maybe Im loosing my nerve to go talk to girls, I dont know, but I still like my rule of not meeting girls in groups. Ive made some recent addiitions to my web page. Audio logs and new buttons are some of the things that have gone up. Now Im gonna work on the title and try to format it a little better. Oh ya, I removed the warning from the top of this page, not because it all still doesn't apply, but I need the space for more calanders. Well, see ya next time.

One Old and Two New's
I know I know, its been a while since I last wrote in here and I'm sorry. So lets see...first of all, I decided to pick up city of heroes again and drop WoW for a while. Although WoW might be the better built game and have a lot more to do and places to go, the "fun" factor is just to strong to stay away from CoH. The community on CoH, and the friends I have on there are just to much fun and are way to great of guys to stay away for to long. Besides, I kinda suck at WoW, but I'm pretty good at CoH :) The night I got back on, I was reminiscing with my Super Group leader and he was saying how our sister group, Paragon Elite Force Too, was in trouble of falling apart. I asked him if I could help try to rebuild it and she said sure so he made me the freakin leader!! Well, one of them, but I'm the only one on all day long. It's going good too. I've invited some really cool people in there and we all talk and hang around and do missions together. So except for the fight me and Vochre got into a few days ago, things are going good.
I got that job at GTI, but she said I have to wait for an opening which could take a couple of weeks!! So until then I just have to keep calling back and hope someone leaves soon. I also got to go to a Texas Ranger game this weekend. Jeremy and his girlfriend came into town so we all decided to go. She seems really nice, of course, so did the psycho one who tried to kill his dog. I guess we'll see how this one goes, but so far things are good with her. I also hung out with Travis Friday night until like 2am. That was fun. We went and got hamburgers and watched Spiderman 2. Then we played arcade games on his computer for like 2 more hours...so cool. Well, that's about it for now.

Good to be back and the Party
Lets see, over the weekend I went to my moms house for like two days and I couldn't have been more ready to come home to Denton. I swear I just wanted to kill my self after being there for a day. Being in a house alone, with no TV or internet for multiple days just does bad things to my mental status. So I quickly decided to come back. I called GTI today and I have an interview next Tuesday at 10:20am so I hope that goes well. Josh said I'll probably get the job but I'll have to wait until they start training again which could be up to like 2 months! I cant wait that long. I'm going to have to go apply at the cafeteria so I can have a job until training starts. Oh well, I'll suck it up for a while and swallow my pride if I have to.
We threw a pretty good size party here last night. Had about 50 people show up we guess which is a lot considering how small of a place this is. Only problem was that a few of them came into my room, opened up my window, climbed out on to my roof and decided to just chill. So I eventually had to come get them and tell them to come in side so that I could shut my window and stop letting all the bugs and stuff in my room. Other than that it was pretty fun. Cleaning was kind of a bitch though, but I did manage to pick up and vacuum my room along with every other part of the house.
Still cant figure out what happened to that Ginny girl. She never did return my message I sent her on myspace, but she checked my profile again today. Weird.
