The Post Archive
Because sooner or later my homepage would have a lot of posts and would be really long, I've decided on a five post limit on front-page posts. Once that limit is reached, the oldest posts will be moved here, to the post archive, with all the original links still attached, so you can come back here in case you missed something, or I reference an earlier post that's no longer on the front page.
Just A Temporary Setback
By the time this post comes up, I'll have taken down all of the Tide of Dream files. I need to make some minor changes to them, and it'll be easier to re-upload them if they aren't on the server. Don't worry, they'll be back by next week.

Ladies and Gentleman, I Present New Content
That's right, big shocker. First and foremost, the Blood Angel's AMV's section had gotten a major overhaul. Go check it our, and make sure Javascript is enabled on your browser. Second, the next chapter of The Tide of Dreams is up. Yay! Go read it. Go, go. No, wait! One more thing. From now one, I'll be writing all of the parts of a Tide of Dreams chapter, then release the parts in two week intervals. Now, go. Read and be happy.

So Here's The Deal...
I'm working two jobs this summer, a research position at school and an IT internship. Plus, I'm taking a summer course. And I have to miss Otakon because of it. Not happy about that. After that, I'm doing writing. I'll start chapter four of Blades of Destiny sometime later this week, but first, I'm gonna finish the second part of the current Tide of Dreams chapter. I'm also working on a new website (no, I'm not updating this one, I like the design much more than the previous one) which won't come out for a while. And I won't tell you what it is for either. You'll see when it comes out. So now you know that I've got a lot on my plate for the summer, so things will slow down even more until the end of July (when I'm done with summer class and work). I'll keep you posted. Later.

Semester's Finally Over
Which means I can finally relax and do some writing, starting... next week. Now all I have to do is hope my grades are good enough that I can come back in the fall.

The Next Two and a Half Weeks...
...are gonna suck like hell. 2 5-page papers for English class, a Statistics test tomorrow, a reenactment of a scene from A Midsummer Night's Dream, and then finals. I was really hoping to get the next part of ToD done before school was over, but that's probably not going to happen at this pace. Sorry.

New Post System
So after getting tired of having to change and re-upload my index page every time I want to post an update, (and because I got PHP to work), I've developed a posting system so that I don't have to do that anymore. It's nice because it allows the 5 latest posts to be displayed on the home page, and the rest are shown on the post archive page. So, this is the first post using said system.

WinFail
So yeah, it is possible to win and fail at the same time. How, you ask? Simple. In an effort to finally fix my broken photo galleries, I updated the host server to IIS version 7, which added support for PHP 5.x. (As you know, the old gallery ran on php code). Now, in the 24 hours I had to wait for the update to take effect, I made another gallery using Jalbum, using Photoshop to make custom colors to fit the site itself. I upload the Jalbum, and it works. Nice. Win. Then, when testing the old gallery, after removing all the links to it, it fucking works. Win for getting it working, fail for getting it working after spending 2.5 hours in Jalbum and Photoshop getting color and stuff right. But, whatever. At least with the Jalbum gallery, I don't have to name each picture imageX.jpg or something. So I'll leave it as is. Later.

Got Some New Content
First off, I'll just say that I failed. I'm not talking about classes, but in general. See, you may have noticed that the drop-down menus are gone. They got annoying, so I got rid of them. Here is where the fail begins. When I left for Spring Break, I forgot to take the updated pages with me (basically every page of the site), so not only could I not upload the new pages, but I also forgot the rant I had typed up, so that couldn't be uploaded either. Also, I never did finish the new ToD, though I'm working on that right now. And I still haven't gotten to the photo gallery problem. I'll at least have it fixed by Otakon, that for sure. So yeah, that's the state of things right now. And now, back to you regularly scheduled browsing. Later.
UPDATE: (Since this really doesn't need a new heading) The lastest chapter of Tide of Dreams is up. Go check it out.

The Month (and a Half) from Hell
Okay, so this last month and a half have been the worst. So much school work, I can't get anything else done, so I haven't been working on rants, ToD, even Blades of Destiny. But fear not, for after tomorrow, I'm on Spring Break. I'll totally finish the next ToD and my first rant. So yeah. Oh, by the way, if you do websites and aren't a wuss and use nothing but Notepad and Photoshop, I highly suggest getting Notepad++. Google it. Seriously, it's so full of win. I love it. It really makes seeing and finding tags and stuff easier.

Look up...
See that yellow Go-Daddy banner? If you're on good old Firefox with Adblock Plus, the answer is no. If not,...get with the picture. I'm not paying an extra 60 bucks a year for the paid hosting without the banner when they offer it for free. You know, unless traffic really picks up.

Well Ain't That a Kick
Okay, so, if some of you followed the link to my (former) host's site, you know what's up. For those of you that didn't, here's the deal. Sean (former host) is trying to work off a credit card, so one of the sacrifices is the webspace. Now, he told me this yesterday while I was working on VUJAC's website, and the site went down today, even though we thought we had like five more days, so I never got the chance to link to the new site (here). As soon as I figure out how to edit meta-tags, it should be an easy google search to find the new domain. For anyone who has managed to find me already, I apologize for the inconvenience. Oh, and by the way, the photo gallery is down at the moment, so don't bother, and I'll be fixing the dead ToD links in a few minutes. I'll post when the photo gallery comes back up.

What I'm Working On
Homework. End of story. Just kidding. I'm working on the VUJAC website, I've got a rant in the works, and I'm working on ToD. But homework comes first. I need to do well this semester.

New Semester, Slight Motivation
Hello, everyone. So, yet again, I find myself neglecting the site, and I'm sorry. I had planned on posting the next part of Tide of Dreams, but I found the motivation to start writing my novel, Blades of Destiny. Now that the semester has started (well, tomorrow, but you get the idea), I'll probably switch back to the shorter writings of Tide. So look for something within the next two weeks or so. Later.

Still Here, Still Working
Hello again everyone. Just in case you've been wondering, I'm still here. I've shifted my attention at the moment to my main novel, Blades of Destiny, while Tide of Dreams has taken a slight backseat. Don't worry, I'll finish the "Waking" arc in about a week or two, so at least I can help you all make sense of the story. Other than that, the VUJAC website is nearing completion (just need an hour or two in Photoshop). Also, if any Halo 3 players may have noticed, last weekend was a Grifball Double EXP Weekend. If any of you played and are interested in making a team or having matches, go check out the Official Grifball Website, and if you want to play with me, as I'm looking for a team to join or create, hit me up by email or Xbox Live message.
Oh, and I almost forgot, that Pokemon guide I made. Remember that? I'm going to make a video on how to do that, just as soon as I get my starters to evolve. 'Till then, just hang out. Later

A Rolling Tide of Content
Okay, so as I promised, I've uploaded some new content to the site. If you check under short stories, you'll see not one, but two shorts there. Originally, they were in html format, but I've since changed them to pdf format, so if you've already seen the shorts in the last few days (before this update), the old links will 404, you'll have to navigate throught the site again. That shouldn't be a big deal, should it? It's like two clicks from this page. Now get over there.
Oh, I've also made some minor changes to the contact info in the About section.
And one more thing. I'm working on the website for VUJAC. It won't be up for some time, but I'll keep you all updated.

Rebirth of the Blood Angel's Sanctuary
Hello everyone, and welcome to the redesigned Sanctuary. It was a long, somewhat annoying process, but with the help of Sean and some actual initiative on my part, the redesign is finished. Everything that was originally on the site has been updated and is generally in the same place as before. So go on, take a look around, and let me know what you think. Later everyone.
