Nine Months Later

Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009

So I haven’t posted here since September. “So why haven’t you posted in 9 months?” You might ask. Well there are several reasons. The fall was my last semester in college and I had a lot of work for my classes so I spent a lot for time doing that work. When I wasn’t doing school work I was doing stuff for scouting. So that didn’t leave a lot of time to write any meaningful posts. After I graduated I still didn’t post. Some of it was laziness and some of it was lack of knowing what I should post. See my weekly D&D game went to hell in early October when one of my players got hurt and we started cancelling a lot of our games and when we did play we weren’t able to play what was supposed to be our regular game because the guy who was supposed to be DMing family decided they needed him every week. I also started several little projects (not one of which was completed) which took up time along with my laziness that lead to watching a lot of TV and playing a lot of video games. But now I am starting to get a little less lazy. I finally upgraded to WordPress 2.7. Got a theme which I like and works with the newer version of WordPress and I am going to be posting.

“So what are you going to be posting about?” Well I’m glad you asked. I am going to be posting about my (what is supposed to be) weekly D&D game. I am going to be posting about a Play by Post Game I have recently gotten involved in. I am going to be bringing back my “Character Counts” series back. I will also post about things related to scouting. Hopefully I’ll be adding more and more things to the list as time goes on.

Musings Downtime

Sunday, June 22nd, 2008

Well my blog was down, but is now up again. The day after I had jury duty (June 13th) the server was hit with a DOS (Denial of Service) Attack. That lasted until last Friday (June 20th). So about a week and a half the server was down. I made a post similar to this one. Unfortunately because of a weakness in the server they moved my page from chornjr.hostnmore.com to chornjr.myscoutserver.com. But they only moved the posts before that over (their last backup before the move) and didn’t tell me till yesterday (though I didn’t really find out till this morning). So some of my planned posts may be a little delayed, but they are on my hard drive already so maybe not.

Also, I plan on acquiring a proper domain name, but it is going to be a few days (weeks). I’ll let you guys know about the change before it happens.

Some Changes to Joey’s Musings

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

Since I basically had to start Joey’s Musings again from scratch I have decided to do things a little different. First I want to ensure I post more often because without me posting, well Joey’s Musings is a waste of space and time.

I decided I was bored with the “Misty Look” theme which I was using and decided to put my web development skills to use and make my own theme. No this theme isn’t created by me it is just here till I finish my own theme.

I also decided I wanted to try some new wordpress plugins. So as we go along you may see some things come and go from the blog as I test them out. If you have any plugins you have seen, used or heard about and think are good and would be a good addition to Joey’s Musings then just let me know about them.

Downtime

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

As you have noticed, and shame one you if you didn’t, my blog has been down for a little over a week now. My server got upgraded (WAHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) but unfortunately my database was lost in the upgrade process and stupid me never made a backup of it. So I had to reinstall WordPress and start all over from the beginning. A very important lesson can be learned here. ALWAYS, ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR DATA.
