Coding till I turn into ASCII
I took the day off from life in order to recode old parts of the site to be more liek the new code I write. Well actually, I just ike redoing stuff a year or two later because it is always so much fun to see how much better you get at it.

Each time I revisit old stuff, I say, oh man, why did you do it that way, but redoing is really fun and about a thousand times easier than when I was first learning several years ago.

The help files should be up in no time. i had to rewrite the classes for the stylebox and the media upload to work for it, but soon it will be totally done.

There is still one spot under my name on google that is not me (GOOGLE - "paul visco") . I need to overtake it so I can own my own google page.

Tomorrow I have to go see Nonna again. I have gone the last three days but tomorrow no one els ewill be there. My dad and brother got sick and my mother has to work. I hope that Nonna remembers to speak english tomorrow. I told her she has to practice tonight.

While I was there today she kept saying "duo gatto" and i wasn't sure what she meant and then I rememebered that (e:lilho) IMed (e:mike) the other day that (e:twisted) had brought two cats to buffalo with her in her suitcase. It was just a a joke but lots of people were over and (e:lilho) forgot to tell (e:mike) it was just a joke. he told my mother, who told nonna at the hospital who was then asking me about the "duo gatto" (two cats) in italian. It's funny how that got around. Everyone was laughing cause they all know my feeelings about cats.

Twisted Takes Off
(e:twisted) 's plane takes off in a little bit. It was fun to have her visit, I wish that the weather was better so that we could have seen all the fun pretty things that come out with the sun. I guess she probably gets enough of that in CA.

Vonage Broadband phoneline
We decided to go with a broadband phoneline. It is so much cheaper than verizon landline. We pay $14.99 /month for 500 minutes of outgoing calls. Iincomming is free. With those 500 calls it doesn't matter where they are in the US and I saw international rates as low as 3 cents a minute to tokyo. To top it off we get email notifcation of message, caller ID, we were able to transfer our number, and a few other bonuses I can't remember.

The quality seems pretty good. My one problem so far is that you only have one jack on the router, which is not very convenient. Luckily, we have a cordless phone so all is good. Either way at $14.99 per month we are saving a ton and we got one month free with a coupon I found on the internet.

Twisted is Here
(e:twisted) arrived last night. We sucessfully found her at the airport and spent the evening with some of the other peeps at the 444. (e:soyeon) 's posters arrived from (e:scud) 's print shop. There look really nice and are very glossy. I will hang them around town as soon as I get a chance, maybe even hang some up tonight.

I am super alergic to life right now. Something in the house makes me mega alergic and seeing as I am just about only allergic to cats, I assume it is cats. The landlord asked the front neighborsd if they have a cat and they said no. So somehow cat iis in my life. It could be the cat hair covered couch from amvets that we washed or the the two pet soaked rugs that our landlord gave us, both of which we have now steam cleaned.

I wish it would just end. I am going to go to the doctors today and get an inhaler.
