One Final Weekend

So today wasn’t exactly the way I planned it - anymore days rarely are, but I got some more rest, still not 100% yet, but come Friday the whole ordeal starts again, with one final weekend to get things rolled over to the new hardware, and so far over 10 days online, the hardware has performed wonderfully! Some small blips with the new anti-spam, for instance one customer’s IP was listed in a blacklist, thus the server rejected them sending email! Got that fixed up quickly.

Overall I am pretty happy with the move, things are looking good, and I have actually had a steady flow of small packages sign-up since the start of 2008, granted it’s not enough thus far to really push towards avoiding a job, but the job front looks good, and I may be able to get myself setup with this new job within the next 2 weeks, which if it works out, would mean a good infusion of funds into the monthly budget, get some bills paid off, get ahead on my car payments, and of course the big jump — the apartment. Soon I’ll be all grow’d up.

I want to get out though before I take this job and get one big photo day in, as I know in the course of many days that won’t be a random option I can simply pick up and do anymore once I get the day-to-day job, but I am hoping for fun Saturdays, evenings, etc. so I really want to pick up a nice point and shoot camera soon, as lugging the E-500 around isn’t very compact, but all in all things look like they are all coming along, now granted there’s that chance this job won’t stick, but then that just means I must keep pushing forward.

Anywhoo - still have a code to work on, then I need to migrate it from here to the server for review, all in all it should be pretty straight forward move, none the less I am keeping a active copy of MySQL4 running just in case I have issues in MySQL5 that arise - so a busy weekend to come, but one of which that will eliminate a server bill coming in on the 2nd, so pretty jazzed about that! So if your on Thrust Networks servers, check your email, a move is coming Friday!
