So, I was going through my webalizer statistics for my site here (www.amishgeek.com) and I discovered that this site gets more hits than my business site (www.utaria.net).

Weird huh?

Yay!  So I finally got my H-Sphere accounts moved, thats good.  I also got my Quad Monitor Display set up at the office, and my Gaming system is back home with the Radeon All in Wonder, set to record the Screensavers off the Cable. :D

Its like 3:30 am right now, and I havent had much sleep, I’m kinda giddy.

Here is what my desktop looks like currently with my new quad monitor setup : http://www.amishgeek.com/images/officedesktop.jpg

Yay!

A long day(s)

October 8, 2003 by Aaron

So after class last night (Tuesday) which I forgot that I had an assignment due for, I came down to the office to get some work done, and finish prepping Phoenix (one of my servers) for the dedicated server move for a customer of mine.

Since my office is in the back of the NorthLAN Gaming Center, I help out by watching over the store for them a couple times a week.  But last night, Jim (one of the owners) never came in to lock the front door, so Fish and I had to stay all night to make sure no one came and robbed the place.  I took this as an opportunity to finish up prepping the server so I could move the sites over this morning at 8 as planned.  I finished prepping the server at 2:30-3ish.

So I crashed from 3:30-7am on the couch in the front of Northlan.  At 7 I got up and got ready to make the move.  The move went fairly well, besides the fact that I had to sit around waiting for the stupid DNS to update.  I got the majority of things taken care of by noon, and went to class.  At 1, went to work at Computer Maintenance.

After work, I had a nice 15 minute walk home.  Its really warm here in duluth considering it had been below freezing last week.  Anyways, I ate some good home-made chili that Sunny made and watched some TV.  6:20 rolls around and I head off to church to work with the youth group.  Right as I am pulling into the parking lot, my phone rings.  Who is it?  The customer who’s dedicated server I moved that morning.  He was having some email problems (DNS related) and realserver problems (also DNS related).  So I had to skip youth, and go down to the office.  I got things taken care of and things are looking good again.  At least until I decide to tackle the Tomcat installation that has been kicking my butt for the last few weeks.

Yeah, its been a long 2 days… I’m looking forward to being done with account moves, server installations etc.  Maybe I’ll swing by the glencoe LAN this weekend.

Meh…

Meandering Thoughts…

October 7, 2003 by Aaron

So I was thinking the other day, that I should really put some time into this site, and make it really shnazzy.  Then I realized that I am an overworked workaholic.  Between my Class schedule, Work Schedule for Campus, and my Work Schedule for my own business, I barely even have time to sleep.

I’ll be happy when this account move is finished for my business, as my stress level will drop down back to normal, and I will actually have time to do the part of my business that I enjoy, working on sites.

So as I sit here at the Helpdesk, I though, why don’t I use this time to put a little elbow grease into my site, so that is what I am doing.  If the site doesnt appear that different, or the only new thing is this post, then you can only assume that either all hell broke loose and the phone is ringing on the hook, or my ever decreasing attention span has brought me over to the webhostingtalk forums.

Hasta la vista!
