server changes and happiness

I’m sick of paying $7 a month for the crappy service at my current host. I mean, they are really responsive to my needs and such, but that last month of intermittent downtime was just inexcusable. And now they’re telling me I’m over my disk space quota.

At my current host, it’s 1GB space for $7 a month, and at Dreamhost (where Cracked LCD and a few other sites are hosted), it’s like $8 a month for 200GB space, plus a bunch of advanced technologies like WebDAV and the latest version of PHP that allow me to do things like use my wiki.

Long story short, I have finally gotten around to switching my blog to Dreamhost. So, in the 48 hours (usually much faster) that the name servers change, comments and such might temporarily disappear.

In other news, I got my scooter serviced today and it runs wonderfully now. Also, it is a beautiful sunny day…I went down to the park where Kelly and I would play as kids and walked around near the creek there. I also put up the hammock. I’m in SUCH a great mood now that summer is here! :)

Also, for those of you who have things hosted on my server, all the hyperlinks and everything should still work after the transition. It just might take a while to get everything uploaded, as Fetch keeps saying “you do not have the privileges to download this file” to stuff that’s been on there for centuries.
