"Hey! Watchout! Hey! Hey! Listen! Hey! Watchout!" - "SHUT UP YOU FUCKING FAIRY!"


If you couldn't tell by the quote above I've been playing a lot of Ocarina Of Time lately.

This has been quite a week. Not really. Though I made a new friend whom is pretty cool, I've gotten mad updates done to the website, and I may have discovered a way to get myself a camcorder so I can take some new pictures and start working on doing some video projects (like reviews or skits or something). Overall it has been some pretty good times. Except for Navi bugging the hell out of me. Tinkerbell was never this problematic.

So let me talk about the site for a bit. I've added some paragraphs to the Covers and Unreleased Tracks pages to explain how the songs came out and whatknot. I've also added slightly longer descriptions to the Discography page but they are really just place holders as I'm trying to get some outside influences to write them instead of just having it be me talking about how awesome I am. Other than that I've pretty much just been doing some really basic cosmetic stuff to the site. Trying to make it look a little better here and there.

My next project is to go through each short story and fix all typos and properly format them to fit the site. That is going to be a beast. I hadn't realized just how many short stories I'd written until now. I really need to get back to my writing. I started 55 rEVOLVEr and Sid and I started working on The Soup-Ah Heroes. I kinda trailed off on 55 rEVOLVEr 'cause I've just not been in the mood to work. It writes itself though so I should be able to work on it whether I'm in the mood or not. The Soups on the other hand is something Sid and I are working through. We've hit a little snag but we're slowly climbing over the problem and with any luck we should be back to writing moderately soon.

That's all for me at the moment. Guess I'll go back to Death Mountain and the tiny flying whore.

"It's like shit rolled up into a ball. With pages."


Every page on the site works now!

That's right. After months of slaving over a hot keyboard I finally have the entire site up and running. Granted some sections don't have anything in them, but at least their pages are there to tell you that.

The Gallery page is up but it is really only temporary until I can find a better way to present it. I may just go with the smaller pictures and not even put up larger ones. I'm not sure yet. The Review pages in the Writing section are up but I haven't done any reviews yet. Each page tells you what the first review will be though.

Aside from finishing up the site and working on the material for the reviews there really isn't much going on at the moment. I did buy a Nintendo 64 though and that's pretty much been the highlight of the month. I'll be back soon with reviews and various other things I hope.

"So just who the hell are you?" - "I'm Kain Vinosec bitch."


I've been steadily working on getting the rest of the pages up on the site. The entire Music section is now up and running. All of my albums are once again freely available to download with all of their original content! Yay!

Also I'm still working on the Biography and Discography pages in the Vinosec section, but they are up and working. I just haven't figured out how to go about some of the pages yet. Working with CSS and attempting to do so without using a single table is a bit of a challenge, but a worthy one as it makes the website load way faster than most.

Also you'll notice the site is now blue instead of red and the favicon (the little icon that shows up next to the website's name in most browsers) is now white. No real reason. Just felt like a change.

Hopefully I'll be able to get all the pages up and working pretty soon. I'm ready to finish the bulk work and start doing the details like fixing the short story pages so they're all formatted properly and eventually I'd like to start uploading some reviews and things of that sort. With any luck it'll all go smoothly from here on out.

"Site goes up. Site goes down. Site goes up..."


I'm back! So is the website! It went down apparently because I was supposed to renew it right after I moved but I didn't realize it until yesterday. Go figure.

So I'm finally back in Smallvil... Er. Lawrence, Kansas. It feels SO good to be back but damn it is lonely as hell. I was bored a lot and recently I've been fighting off a lack of food. It's been an adventure of sorts. Hunger and boredom. Hell of a combination.

So there's nothing really new going on at the moment. I'm looking for work, thinking about giving up music, writing a little whenever inspiration grabs me by the nuts and forces me to do its bidding... Good times. Nut-grabbin' good times.

I do have some site news though. I fixed and uploaded all the short stories in the writing section. I still need to go through and fix typos and some layout issues with a couple of stories but they're up now at least and readable. I'll try to get 'em all prim and proper in the coming weeks. I'll also do what I can to get the rest of the site working. Wish me luck and bring me an apartment warming gift! Hint: I need food.

Lataz.
