2008

I have had the chance to play around with Social Engine and code for it. I really like the program. if you don't know, it is a simple social networking platform that can be built upon and made to fit your needs. Now I have had the opportunity to create a plugin for it, it isn't an official plugin, maybe one day I will make it official, but for now it is all right. If you are wondering if it is easy creating a nonofficial plugin for Social Engine then let me just say yes.

If you know anything about Smarty then making a plugin that works with Social Engine should be a piece of cake for you. Since I know how easy it is, and since I now have a bulletin plugin, then it might open up my chances to get some projects on getafreelancer. I am going to see if I can find anyone needing a bulletin plugin and possibly make some extra money with it.

I am seriously considering looking into being a pharmacy technician. The average pharmacy technician salary is higher than most other jobs right now, and I think it would be a good experience to do something that is far from the norm for me. I don't know if Happy Harry's would hire me though, considering the only people who seem to work there are women, but it is worth a shot right? Maybe I could start as a cashier up front then move to a pharmacy tech position, that way I would know the store better and have a better feel for the system.

I need an opinion, should I change my horoscopes page to run off my site? I am not saying I would be writing my own, but instead of going to an outside company it would be all within Lep's Lair. I know I have gotten some feedback before, but I need to know your opinions now as I may have a way to do it easier than ever.

My grandmother always had this thing about time. She always would have at least one clock in every room, which is strange considering whenever she had to be anywhere, she was always late. "Better to make an entrance" is what she always said, yet you would never know that was her philosophy because looking around you would automatically assume that being on time was important to her. Of course it was the opposite of that, she would take her time to get ready and to get somewhere, because she felt like she had all the time in the world.

Clocks seem to have one of those two effects on people, either they make you feel rushed, or the time just makes you feel like you have all the time in the world. I am the opposite of her, I look at a clock when I need to be somewhere and I feel rushed. I start hurrying around and getting everything ready that needs to be, and in the end something is usually messed up because I rushed.

Just because I am not like her when it comes to time, doesn't mean I am not like her when it comes to clocks. I think clocks make an interesting piece of furniture, or art, however you want to put it. I would love to own a grandfather clock one day. I think that is the ultimate tribute to the time we have left and the time that has already passed. How can you not look at a Howard Miller clock and not be in awe of their beauty?

We went down to Ocean City tonight to go to Denny's. They really need to build one closer to here, I think it is ridiculous that we need to travel to Maryland to go to Denny's. Who knows maybe if I complain enough, and get enough interest together to put one closer to Rehoboth then maybe, just maybe they will put one here. As it is we only have one 24 hour diner, and they aren't that good, so having another one here would be great when you ant something good and your up late.

I am thinking about going to school to be an x-ray technician. Why x ray technician you ask? Well because they tend to work in hospitals and since hospitals never close, I could work the night shift when it tends to be less busy. I know that they have at least one xray technician there at night because I have gone at night and have had X-rays done. It is just a thought for how I want to spend the rest of my life.

It has been over 2 weeks since I put in a request to Dreamhost to move my MySQL files to one server. This was supposed to take a few hours, but I have been waiting 2 weeks. They have gotten better with the uptime and speed lately, but this is ridiculous. I am fed up and am seriously considering moving hosts, I just would want to move to one where I can get everything I want, or just build my own server and pay for a T1 line earlier than I thought I would.

For some reason Krissy has been looking into different kinds of art schools. I can understand wanting to be a graphic designer, because that is what she is passionate about, but she is looking into any creative design thing she can think of. She is looking into fashion schools, just to get her foot in the creative door. Who knows, maybe she would be a fashion designer or find some other fashion careers that she could do. There seem to be a lot of fashion jobs out there, so maybe she would be good at it and find a creer she loves.

My lack of a cellphone is really getting to me. I would love it if I had an internet ready phone like an iphone or a Blackberry. With that kind of phone, I would be able to see when people comment, or when some of the server I am working on are down or up, or having problems.

Of course you can't have that cool of a cell phone without the accessories to go with it. Cell Phone Accessories can be a bit expensive, unless you buy them from the right places, so I would find a really reasonably priced place and load up on everything I would need, like headsets, screen protectors and anything else I would need.

I had a prepaid for a few months, but I let it expire and never reloaded any minutes onto it. As it is, money is tight and putting money on a phone, no matter how little that may be, is still hard to do when you are stretching every penny. Maybe once money gets good I will buy the phone I would need to do what I do on the go. Maybe in a few months things will be better, but for now I can only dream.

A man in Bellevue, Ohio was caught on tape performing a sexual act in public. What makes this story strange is that he was having sex with a picnic table in his backyard. He would remove the umbrella from the table tilt it and have sex with the hole that the umbrella goes into. This is not illegal, but doing it in public is, so the man was arrested on public indecency, where children might see him.

I think I am going to fly when i visit my friend in Florida. I have been trying to figure out the prices on Flights to Florida, and so far they aren't that bad. With the price of gasoline on the constant rise, I think that a flight to Florida might actually come out cheaper than taking my car down there. If I fly down, I won't have to worry about my car breaking down or running out of gas, I can just relax a bit while the plane takes me where I need to go. Who knows maybe I could get some much needed reading done on the plane.

People always ask me what I have against the Playstation 3, and I always tell them they have two good games that won't be on Xbox, Warhawk and Metal Gear Solid 4. I would buy Playstation 3 just for the Blu-Ray player, but that too needs to see more movies that would look good in high definition. I will not buy a Blu-Ray player so I can watch Ratatouille, if I buy one then I want it to watch the best action trilogy of all time, the Matrix.Of course right now if I bought one I would also buy the Spiderman trilogy, but a Matrix blu-ray would definitely seal the deal for me.
