Happy Sunday!
So it’s already Sunday! Not sure how that happened, my Saturday meeting never happened, I think Jake may of ditched me for his lady friend, or such is my guess
but none the less, I got some decent sleep under the belt, and managed to do nothing right the entire day! I slept thru two calls in the AM, and then curious as to why my email was delayed this evening, I checked and the spam filter was out of storage! So I quickly scaled that up a bit.
But things are going good - not lightning fast, but it’s all getting there, I am looking at the next build of the software for the new billing system, and it looks good - it will allow me to get rolling with Visa, Mastercard, AMEX, and Discover off the bat! Which is one thing I have been wanting to do, and on top of that it keeps me from having to fiddle with the silly new CC bit, so excited there, just need to re-vamp how a few things are handled in my month to month billing - as this system will suspend websites when they are overdue, so a very nice feature that while the other system had, it was more advanced in the new version, but to upgrade was a pain - so very excited!
iPod conversion time, I have been using the ol Linux box to convert some dvd’s to iPod ready content using Podencoder [linkage] - so far so good, had 1 glitch with the conversion of Sphere, the default audio track was commentary, not a HUGE deal, but just something I’ll have to re-copy later, for now I am working on the Office Season 2 - it’s slow going, but since it’s via the other system, it doesn’t slow down this machine at all, but I do need a faster DVD-R on this rig, not to mention a BIGGER AMD processor
but one thing at a time I suppose, for now while slow, it works - already have a few things done, just doing it as I think of it.
All in all, this week brings some good things, wrapping up with a weekend of what I hope to be some good fun with the Fosters, have some money coming in during a business deal, pushing forward more on the server tune-ups - looking seriously at upgrading ram and cpu, so we shall see how that goes - long term I have some other ideas for storage and such, but one step at a time, and as budget allows - but if that, and a job idea all comes thru, then I might be one step closer to an apartment - but my hope is Crazy October will really take off come Wednesday, it used to be my biggest seller each year, so hopefully the new system will be able to handle it!
Anywhoo - odd life I live, but it’s mine
going to go take a shower, and then try to crash out for the night, 1am - early for me! So have a wonderful Sunday folks, and stay tuned for more and more excitement from my life…. no… really. lol
