When I got back to my apartment tonight, half of the ceiling in the common area was gone and my room was about 90 degrees. I'll explain the hole on the ceiling; but rest easy knowing that the upcoming soul searching is cyclical in nature. The heat kind of gave me a nostalgic feeling about first moving in; building my furniture at night in the heat, getting eaten alive by bugs on my trips to and fro, and my first few nights here trying to sleep to forget about how uncomfortable I was. Last summer, looking for a place to move to, was completely surreal; it seems like it was all a dream now.

As some of you who pay close attention might have seen, my site was in limbo for about a month as I switched away from my friend's server and migrated over to my own. What you are seeing is both a result of this switch, and a result of a migration from an older design to this new design that has been in sporadic development since January. If you don't see a difference, but think the site looks oddly better than it used to, then I made some good decisions. I still have a lot of work to do on it, but its finally usable up to the point that the previous version was. Of particular note, you'll find that the 'news' section has finally been killed (as it should have been a long time ago), and the comments and posts were all consolidated and correctly merged into one repository. This has inflated some post numbers (mostly those beyond 120) by no more than 20, so although all links will lead somewhere, most of them made in the past year to "permalinked" stories will point to the wrong one. I tried hard to figure out an elegant solution to this problem but sometimes the most elegant solution is to break backwards compatibility!
I'll get my <pre>!!
