Squinty eyes smile

Don’t be alarmed! http://www.spiffykerms.com/smilies/cloud.gif It’s still me.
Obviously, I deleted my previous layout and installed wordpress, downloaded a new theme and I’ve been trying to tweak it – with no luck. Seems anytime I do anything to it, the darn thing breaks on me and all the links are all on the bottom instead of on the right hand column over there. I also want to create a nice banner instead of having a bland ‘simplistic’ black bar with white text showing my web url up top. I guess that will come with time. But I gotta say, updating this way makes it a lot more easier for me to come home from a day at work, and update more freqently than having to open Dreamweaver’s index.html file, copy and paste my code and then enter br’s anytime I want a new paragraph. I’m way far behind on this whole wordpress thing, seeing how when I went into my dreamhost thing, it looks like I tried to create a new account back in 2006… oops. I guess I should have saved my previous index files, with like uh… ALL of my posts from forever ago? Guess that’s a long gonerrr.

During my frustrations, trying to conquer wordpress… I came across some pretty neat blogs. I’ve updated my Blogroll and added some new daily reads to my list. There’s one girl, who resembles myself in a way. Unfortunately I do not know her name, so we’ll just call her ‘she’ for now. She too is a Graphic Designer, I read that she plays/played soccer, she climbs too! How cool is that? Keepin’ her in the links.

How good are you at spotting a fake smile from a mile away? I was completely confident in my ways, but the quiz totally proved me wrong there. I thought I was doing awesome during the whole thing picking out who wasn’t smiling genuinely or who was. Pressing the ‘play’ button to see their cheesy grins. My marks show that I got an embarrassing 11 out of 20 questions correct. Try it for yourself! See if you beat my score, lol.

Anyway I’m off to edit the design page and get some updated work on there.

Moving out, again!

Ha! The reason I’m awake so early, and updating my website is because I’m sitting on my butt waiting for time to pass. My bedroom gets so bright in the mornings. So I was up at 7:00A! I have an interview downtown at 10A so I’m all ready for that. Now just browsing the internet and playing some tunes to keep me pumped.

My friend bought me a domain. I’m going to try and contact my host and see if he can show me how to set it up. Spiff.the0ry.net will be gone! About time I say. So, for those of you who know me, I’ll let you know the new address. For those who do not know me, will either be poop out of luck or find out some other way. But not by me! :) :) Evil.

So I have to move out of my condo/housing complex before May 25 since the house got sold a lot sooner than we thought. My room mate’s parents are my landlord, and they offered to come and help me move out on either the 19th or 21st. Uhg, pain in the arse, but I did find a place – and I get the master bedroom. I’ll be moving in with a couple, and they live in the basement, and I don’t know why – since the master is pretty big. I’m not questioning it for fear of losing the top floor to myself! haha. Also, there’s a pool and tennis court in the complex. How wonderful. Just in time for the hot weather.

I’ve already eaten breakfast, showered, dressed, my hair is styled, face is on, even had a snack! 1 hour until I can go outside and wait for the bus. At least the interview is in the morning so I don’t have much time to get nervous about it. I have two more interviews this week, but they’re in a different city than my apartment. We’ll see how those go. Wish me luck in the one downtown though. I really want it.

I’m gonna go, but maybe next time I’ll update I’ll have my new website, and show you pictures of my new house! Bye all :)
