Brett has no work to do. This means he’s home making a mess, probably doing absolutely no honey-do list items (he thinks he’s a hero if he just bothers to mow the lawn), and he’s all spastic and ready to interface when I get home from work. Not that I mind talking to my DH, but after a day at the Internet I don’t necessarily feel all chatty for three hours when I get home. He’s so high maintenence when he’s well-rested!
AF is here. Ugh. I feel utterly wiped out and personality-free. Not to mention the cramps. I want chocolate.
We’re still broke. But at least we have groovy new ink, and great anniversary weekend in Chi-town memories!
One of LISCO’s web servers was recently hacked, which means I’m knee-deep in the process of moving multiple web sites from the hacked server to our preferred out-sourced hosting solution. This process, believe you me, is TEDIOUS. AS. HELL. It involves logging into the current server and hand-transferring (read: typing) all the existing email users and aliases into the new interface. Then FTPing the site from the old server to my computer and then from my computer to the new host. Then contacting the customer and trying to get them to give me all their email passwords since they’re encrypted on the old server and I can’t see them. THEN I have to try to get the customer to go to each and every email client and change the username from, for instance, ‘mmm’ to ‘mmm.goblinbox.com.’ It’s a fucking nightmare, believe you me. Once all that’s done, THEN I get to do the fun part: DNS.
Did I say ugh yet?

I hope that I’m not the only one that reads some of your more technical stuff and thinks….what in the hell is she talking about. I know how to do things like surf the net, take digital pics of my kids, manipulate them, then print them, and I can send a lot of emails. I tried to instant message a few times, but was never on the computer at the same time as my friend! Other than that, it’s all Greek to me. However, if something major happens to my computer, maybe you can tell me whether to kick it to the curb or get someone to fix it!
Ha! You are NOT alone, Rufus! And Mush, even though I don’t understand completely what you’re having to go through, it certainly DOES sound like a giant UGH! to me, too. Good luck!
DNS? Does that mean Desktop Needs Slappin? Kinda like BNS?
AF is so much fun….you get to have all the fun! LOL
