FINALLY! After weeks of nit-picky code changing it is finally perfect!
Well, nearly. Freehostia doesn’t let you use files over 500 kb with the free plan and my original background image was triple that, so that is why you see the barely acceptable replacement before you. Maybe if I can get my butt in gear I can start making some money and be able to buy the next plan up. Then I could try and sell space, seeing as the next plan up is, what, 10 domains and 50 sub-domains. Geez, I’d barely use four, maybe five domains and one or two subs. Also, I realized that I need a Mac for photography. The editing on a PC barely compares to the immaculate work a Mac produces. Sigh.
Now to work on getting this design to work on Tumblr.

If you happen to be here reading this and there is no real theme working, it’s not your server, it’s my theme not cooperating with me.
I’m currently trying my best to get it all working, so BE PATIENT PLEASE!!!!

SO I finally got adobe. I got the creative suite so I have photoshop, fireworks, flash, illustrator, indesign and dreamweaver.
Though, I despise Dreamweaver. We are incapable of working together.
It doesn’t help that I enjoy being able to do it all by “hand” anyways. That’s what the fun of web design is for me, having an idea and figuring it out myself.
ANYWAYS, I brought all that rambling up because I finally sat down tonight and came up with a basic idea.
It’s almost done, still a few kinks to work out. I love it so far.
I used a space background which is beautiful.
Speaking of which, this next semester I’m going to sign up for Solar System lecture and lab for the rest of my natural science credits.
I can’t wait, from what I’ve heard the lab is in the observatory! Which makes sense, but hey, I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t.
Everything is powerpoint & video now. I am so excited, I’ve always had a fascination with space (well, really just the stars, but still) but, like anthropology, my brain doesn’t comprehend the biology/chemistry well enough to pursue any of it. HA! I love being able to bypass the important stuff for the sake of core credits.
OH! My mom, Jake, Chris (one of Jake’s friends) and I went on a tour of Texas State today! It is more beautiful than I imagined. Even the area around it is amazing. I love San Marcos, it’s urban, rural and city all bundled up into one wonderful area. I am so excited, I can’t wait to be done at SAC. The only thing that makes me sad is that Ted and Nich will be going to UTSA. Ah, well.

I can breathe again!!!
Sorry, I’ve been sick for the past week, so to be able to breathe is amazing.
ANYWAYS, tomorrow I am going to sit down and work on one of three things:
A. Re-designing my different web pages so they are all at least coherent with each other
B. Working on cutting patterns/fabric for my dolls and/or embroidering Blake’s “Proverbs of Hell”
C. Cleaning my room so I can find my Embroidery Hoops. I’m trying to avoid buying new ones.
I have HORRIBLE hang nails.
And they hurt.
A lot.
But I’ve been fidgeting more so I can’t really help it.
My lips are all chewed up due to stress induced fidgeting, as well.
Why is it that animals are so cute when they sneeze?
AH! I’m only have to go to the Chiropractor twice a week now!
PROGRESS!!!!
OH! And I finished Perfume! AMAZING!!!!
Okay, I need sleep now.
Nigh, Night!

I am so frustrated with all of this right now.
I no longer have any editing software on my computer.
I’ve barely gotten into my New Orleans photos because I have to wait until class in order to edit them.
I can’t do any graphics stuff.
Because of that I’m having a hard time with web design.
The worst part is that I don’t have any money to go out and buy the software and my dad is unwilling to pay more than free for it.
Unfortunately, the downloads won’t work on my computer.
Le SIGH!!!!!!
I’ll get a handle on this thing called life someday.
I was in a car accident last Monday.
There’s an intersection next to my school that is really bad in terms of being able to see.
There’s a building, trees and a light pole all on one corner.
Add in the fact that it was night, as well as, the fact that I was tired, had a headache and just wanted to get home.
So I pulled out from the stop sign and was hit. Thankfully my first instinct when I hear a horn is to speed up rather than break so they hit the rear door rather than the driver’s door. Though there is a dent right under the handle on the driver’s door. No one was hurt too terribly and the police said that what happened to me happens all the time at that intersection.
Thankfully, it wasn’t that bad. My back door doesn’t open now and that’s really the only damage. Thank god for American made cars out of REAL metal. Sadly, though, because my car is only worth about $1000 and the damage is more than that my car is technically totaled. So we need to really hunt for someone who will fix it cheap.
Anyways, afterward I was hurting a bit more than usual so Monday I went to the Chiropractor just to get an evaluation.
He told me before even looking at the xrays that my left pelvis moved up. Which is neat in a morbid way because as I was walking around the parking lot that I pulled into after the initial accident I thought that my hips felt uneven.
Today I went in to look at the xrays. My left pelvis was pushed back to where it was in 08 when I was originally going to him causing the lower section of my spine to disalign in order to compensate. The good news, however, is that the Thoracic (middle) section is now straight and my neck has begun to curve back the way it’s supposed to (originally my neck was a straight diagonal). SO, I have to go three days a week for a month and then we’ll do another evaluation to see how I’ve progressed and whether or not I need to keep going after that. Which is good because it will give me an excuse to get up and out of the house then, hopefully, to the gym every morning. Woo!
ALSO!!!!
I have a tumblr!!
It’s where I’m going to put my writing for now.
I’m debating making one with just fun pictures and such later.
