Alrighty then. Etoiline is now hosted at Site5.com. Seems like a great deal, and everything seems to be working on their end. On MY end, however...this is mainly a test post to see if MT is acting up, because the other big database hog on my site is my gallery, which is most vociferously protesting working. Unfortunately before I changed DNS settings, I didn't look at the gallery installation and turn something off I should have before I ported it over. And I can't change it without changing the DNS settings back, but when I tried to do that earlier, the domain didn't resolve, when putting it at the new site took rather little time...maybe I'm just too impatient.

I just want to do a clean install of the whole thing, but I really don't want to have to relabel everything...

  Prelude (Immediate music)

file under: orlando

because there's a lot of things going on right now. and I'm procrastinating as usual. seemed appropriate to quote a little John Mayer.

No, I'm not colorblind
I know the world is black and white
I try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight

Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?

Don't know how else to say it
I don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From finding life out on my own

Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?

So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game
To find a way to say that life has just begun

Had a talk with my old man
Said "help me understand"
He said "turn sixty-eight
You renegotiate"

"Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
Don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
John, honestly we'll never stop this train"

Once in awhile, when it's good
It'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark
Singing

Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
Cause now I see I will never stop this train

I really need to finish writing a novel. I should have bought the Writer's Market with my gift card.

Happy New Year!

It might bode ill that I'm already too tired/lazy to make a graphic for this year, but you know I'm wishing you the best...

Good luck in 2007.
