I have been “secretly” designing a new design for when I move to a new domain. The design is done for the main journal format. I hope to have the gallery at least finished by the time I go to Japan, else the striped design will have to do for the gallery. I shall buy the new domain at the end of the week (after I am done with working this week) and then move the design and code to the new domain. This design is one I really like. I will probably be tweaking it often over the next few months as I test it and try to polish it off for a long term use. I probably will at least change the background as it is pretty generic and easily changed.
In other news, I am going to Japan in less than a week to see my wonderful girlfriend. I bought a Zune last week. It is really nice, I have really enjoyed the UI and control scheme. I began netcasting (podcasting, but without the iPod) the other week and have found a number of nice casts to follow, if anyone knows of other good ones I should give a try, tell me. I now have my music source for the trip, I activated my credit card so that I have an avenue for money if necessary. I have confirmed with my debit carrier that I will be in Japan and have requested some Yen. I just need to pack everything up and I shall be ready to go. It seems like my summer is ending already, when I have a good 4 weeks left.
Gosh, school begins soon. I will be entering my senior year, meaning lots of work, but lots of fun. I’ve got to start hunting for jobs also. It scares me to be getting ready to make the final step in growing up. Then I will be paying my rent, paying my bills, handling all the stuff without anyone to lean back on. I get to find out what all is ahead of me soon. sigh I should probably get ready to nap before another overnight.
