So official

Waking up after going out the night before is always rough for me. I worked like 10 hours yesterday and then went out with my boyfriend. I don’t really drink either. Can someone please tell me why I feel like I’m hungover?! My head feels like it weighs a million pounds. Not fair. I don’t deserve the hangover feeling when I’m not even hungover. My body obviously hates me. Obviously.

Did you hear? I’m official now. I am the proud new owner of some webspace and my own shiny domain. (This is where I would probably link you to it*, but it’s down right now, some ridiculous nonsense about changing over name servers or something.) Of course, all it really is now is just redirecting to my blog, but once I get everything up and going, it’s probably going to be the most amazing thing you’ve ever seen in your life. That’s right. IN YOUR LIFE. Okay, not really, because I have no idea what I am doing when it comes to constructing websites.

So all you fabulous owners of sites that host your blog, want to help a girl out? At least point me in the right direction? Are you really going to leave a poor girl wandering aimlessly around the internet? Seriously. You know what a dangerous place it is!

P.S. I’m going to see American Gangster tonight.

* - Okay, I had to do it. Hopefully, it will be back up soon.

What host did you use to get your domain? Because what you have to do depends on what you have to do it with. You might have to manually install wordpress, but it might be automatic. Either way, I say you get Cyberduck. It’s what makes me a super hero. :)

Sounds to me like you’re just exhausted!

Congrats on your web space! Big step! :)

I’d be happy to help. Website design is what I do for a living, but I’m not above doing a little pro bono work now and then. E-mail me if you’re interested.

No help here - my hubby is a computer geek by trade so I simply whine until he does what I ask to my site. But wanted to say HI! anyway.

i just switched my wordpress domain over yesterday. it is $15 a year, pretty simple to do from the dashboard. takes a couple days to take. but it gives you that mild sense of accomplishment to see something you own as the url as opposed to the wordpress.com attached to it.

good luck. keep writing.

I saw American Gangster today, Denzel and Russell are both awesome in it! Not as good as The Departed though.

Congrats on your new domain! I will look forward to seeing it when you’re all hoooked up and ready to go live!

I suck at web stuff, sorry. However, I had the worst hangover in the history of THE WORLD yesterday and thusly had to go back to bed and stay there almost all day before I could function. Good times.

Also I totally want to see American Gangster. Please give us your opinion of the film. kthanxbai.

Congratulations!! That is awesome :) I’m also sucky at the technical stuff, so I’m no help, but I will enjoy looking at your pretty new domain once it’s up and running!
