Most. Visitors. Ever. And Stringy Butts. And Stuff

Yes yes, some of you know of all the websites I've run over the years (and the 6 uncompleted ones I currently have). TF Headquarters years ago was by far my most popular.. until now. I got a bill in my email today from my free webhost. I have to pay a whole 22 cents for going over usage. But that means www.gainsider.com is my most popular site by far, transferring over 5GB of data in one month! I looked at the stats today, and from the day George and I first put pictures up (12/3) until today, we have had 13,234 unique visitors and 68,090 page views! AMAZING! The website was thrown together for the Kingda Ka pics, but now that we have a breather until March 25th it's going to get an overhaul. Oh, if anyone wants to see it, here is the official video to show the topping off of Kingda Ka Oh.. I have a cat problem. Yesterday my cat Indiana threw up a few times. I went to check on him again after work and I picked him up and he scooped out of my hands and ran upstairs. Melissa looks at him and goes "he has a string coming out of his butt!" and I didn't believe it. So I went to see and sure enough, it looked like he did. I told my brother to come out and see and he pulled on the string and the cat let out a big MEOW and ran under the bed. So I called the vet and they said to bring him in. So my mom met Melissa and me at the vet and they looked at him. They pulled another 2 ft of string out of his butt, totalling 4ft 2in. They said they had to cut it because it got tight, so there's still some in there. They hope he poops it out, but it can tie up the intestines pretty bad and cause pain, so if it doesn't work itself out he needs surgery to get it removed. The string is from outside and it held up my tree. My mom knows he was playing with it but didn't think he ate it.. and how can a cat eat 4-6ft of string anyway? Work is the usual.. nothing ever changes. I have an interview tomorrow for DeVry.. why they want an interview for me to go to the college who knows. Speaking of colleges I started Mercer again today. Calc 2. I'm taking 5 classes: Calc 2 and 3D Computer modeling (w/ Maya, Yay!) are at Mercer. A History, english, and marketing class are online. This is all to give me more credits to transfer with. Calc 2 is going to be terrible. I originally thought it was me since I almost failed Mayle's class in 12th grade and failed my first time doing calc at mercer. But then I had a really good teacher when I did calc again, and even though I missed 4 classes, didn't do any homework, and played with my Pocket PC most of the time, I understood what he taught and got a B! So maybe it really is the teacher. And my teacher this semester is an anal grad student. He's so anal that we can't write problems out on paper side by side, and we can only use one side of the paper when we do work to hand it in. Also, he's under the impression that we already learned some integration (whch we didn't - my professor especially stopped before that because it was calc 2 stuff), so he breezed through some bullshit review today and now I'm already lost. I'm going to have to learn integration agan myself to make sure I know what's going on. And my history class doesn't start till Feb, my marketing class isn't online to do yet, my english class is online but nothing is up.. and i don't start my modeling class till Monday. I got Zelda Minish Cap for GBA.. did I say that already? It's pretty good. I'm waiting for more DS games to come out. Still kinda working on WoW and HL2. Need to do something with them when I have time. I decided to watch the Battlestar Galactica series on SciFi on Friday and it seemed good, so I bought the DVD for the miniseries (along with Farscape: Peacekeeper Wars since I missed that on TV) to watch it. Hope it's good. It seems to be. Oh I got a new printer finally, yay. The HP 6110 All-in-One, which I've wanted for years now. It does everything, and I'm happy with it so far :) I've also been setting up wireless networks and stuff. I cleaned up Melissa's computer so it runs better, and when her router comes in I'm going to put it up so she can go wireless on her laptop. You know, we got new price things at Staples for tech support and they charge $99 for one wireless device install? CRAZY! I need to work on getting my own business going. I need to get A+ certified though :( Most of the time lately I've been with Melissa, which is a good thing :) We've done a lot of stuff; like just lounging and falling asleep.. watching movies (The Village was bad, ick! Dodgeball was crazy but weird! I'm trying to watch Donnie Darko but I fell asleep. Same with Riddick), making funnel cakes ;), playing games (Zelda Four Swords on GC, hehe), and just hanging out and going places and having a good time. Things seem to be going well with her, and I'm glad :) We'll see where it takes us. It's been over two weeks now, and things seem to be going strong. My last close relationship like this ended pretty badly and pretty fast, but it didn't start out anywhere like how this one is, so it should be good, I hope :) I really like her, and I really like what we have. I just don't want her to get sick and bored of me :( That's what I'm most afraid of. I love spending time with her but I'm afraid I'll do something wrong and it'll be over. I hope not. Well for the rest of the evening I'm going to be doing misc stuff around my room (school stuff probably, and websites, movie organization, cleaning, etc), just waiting for Melissa to get out of work :)
