What an interesting blog post this is…sike! (haha, I miss saying that!)

I was just thinking to myself that I really need to update this site more. It’s looking a hot mess right now. Every time I do make a new layout, I get sick of it right away and trash before it even becomes live. Its becoming a bad habit. I’m just not satisfied with my designs for this site. Anyways, hopefully in the future, I’ll have a design that’s worth putting up instead of these crappy themes I keep stumbling upon.

In other news, I bought another domain and will be creating a “network” of sorts with it. I’m thinking design & hosting, that will be a part of this network. Sounds exciting in my head! I’ve already made a logo (that I can’t wait to see on a business card!) and am currently creating layouts for both projects. When I have a more solid foundation of the two projects, I’ll let you all know more about it.

So a couple of days ago, my mother and I were at a red light. Her window was half way open and I had the music a tad bit too loud when from the corner of my eye I see this guy come up to the passenger side window. As I turn my head to see what he is doing, my mom out of reflex, as she said, closes the window a little bit, sort of scaring the guy from asking us a question. On closer inspection, I notice that he looks to be more of a boy, then a man, probably no older then 16 or 17. I quickly turn down the music and ask him what he wanted, politely of course, but he just gives us this really sad look and turns to walk away.

I swear I’ve never felt so bad before. The look that he gave my mother and me had us both wishing we could turn back time and re-do/think our actions. I don’t think he was a “hobo” or anything, he was dressed normally, a little dirty looking, but what teenage boy isn’t sometimes? In my head I thought that he might have wanted to know the time or something? That’s why I felt so bad afterward. I asked my mom why she had closed the window like that? She said she didn’t do it on purpose, it was just reflex, since she also saw him from the corner of her eye. He literally just popped out of nowhere next to the car and so I can understand since it surprised me too. Also a long time ago, when my mother was still in college she said she had her necklace snatched right off her neck when she was driving in her car and was stopped at a red light. Her window was wide open and some guy just walked right up to her and snatched it off and then took off running. My mother said she was too stunned to do anything. So, I could understand the “reflex” part.

Ugh, but did we feel so horrible afterwards. Its the look he gave us, even now I’m thinking about it and sighing sadly…

On a happier note, I suppose, I’ve updated my site with a few more plugins. I’m sure you have noticed the slight “slowness” of my site’s page load and I’m assuming its because of a widget I have installed. I’m not sure which one, but right now its between the gallery plugin or the Twitter one. Hmmm. Also I’ve closed down my hosting website and moved it back here to my main site. I only opened it long ago when ST was still alive and I had quite a few hostees, probably like 14 at that time and felt it would be much better for them. Now I only have a close knit of hostees and decided it would be much easier this way. So for whoever needs some free subdomain hosting, look no further, its only a click away in the “goodies” page. =D
