#nowplaying: If You're Into It - Flight of the Conchords
Oh man, me and technology...not BFFs right now. I am way struggling. I spent the better part of the last two weeks completely rebranding and rebuilding my website. I am changing my blog and site to be all together through one platform. So I have been MIA from life because I was uploading photos, making galleries, adding content, and my favorite - editing CSS code. Yuck.
I totally got it perfect a few days ago, but when I tried to redirect my domain name to my new site it totally freaked out. Totally totally. After a 2 AM phone call to GoDaddy, he said he reset it and it should go back to normal in a few hours. Yeah, this was all the night before the wedding expo. Talk about freaking the freak out. But guess what? I didn’t reset. I called again. He said it is still resetting. Could take a while. He could load my original site on his computer, so it just hadn’t made it to my side of the country. Um, yeah. What about the blog site that I just sunk two weeks into? Yeah, nothing going on there.
Dudes, I am beyond bummed. I did the wedding expo yesterday, got my website and blog addresses in front of HUNDREDS of brides...and they have nowhere to go. It’s 2011, it’s not like they are going to call me. They are going to go online to see if they like my work, see that there is no online for me, and toss my info aside. Shit shit shit. There isn’t a second chance with this one. I want to start calling people soon to follow up, but without an online presence, is there really a point?
Aaaaaarrgh! Seriously, GoDaddy, you are effing killing me! Like bullet straight through the brain, Bruno Mars style. Get it together and help a sista out! I don’t know why I started talking like that, I’ll stop now.
So keep an eye out for my stuff - and if you see it actually work, totes magotes send me a tweet or something so I stop pulling my hair out. @JenSquard

Well it turns out that GoDaddy finally got it pointed in the right direction, there was some strange directory password issue. But now the problem is that you can't see my sites if you have Bresnan internet...I can see every other site but mine. And 90% of our town is Bresnan. So strange, right?
