(Because "Announcements OMG" just didn't seem to get the job done.)

1.) [livejournal.com profile] dethorats! Your package came yesterday and is full of awesome and win! :D I have the samurai figurine sitting on my desk at work (the USPS may have dropped him, despite your best efforts; I may need to glue his kuwagata back on). Also, whilst I have barely had time to scan the Journal of Asian Studies you sent me, ARE YOU IN IT OMG?!

2.) I did something stupid and bought xi-feng.org (no link because it's not configured yet). Or rather, I bought it back, because I used to own it and then for a while in there I didn't, and now it's mine again. MINE MINE MINE. I believe my XFO address was my default for quite a long time, so I may get residual e-mail from it, which will be interesting 8D

So it's like this:

I have had zero trouble getting into LJ. I probably wouldn't know there were outages if I hadn't heard people twittering and facebooking and the like about them.

I don't have any intention of leaving. I've been here nearly 9 years. I am told that I'm hurting fandom's feelings by not moving. Frankly, I don't care, because while I enjoy my personal fandoms I also have a job and other things to worry about besides ZOMG SOMEONE GOT BANNED FOR HARRY POTTER SLASHFIC.

However: in the event that the site goes down and never comes back up, there are other ways to get ahold of me. Some of you haven't known me that long, so I won't be emotionally devastated if you'd rather not keep in touch, but there's a list of places I am here. Feel free to stalk as you will. :D

This has been The Month Where I Have Nothing To Say, apparently. Other than:

1.) I killed a brown recluse in the basement the other day. (Those of you who follow my unexciting nonadventures on Facebook have probably already read about this, complete with J's baffled comments.) I subsequently thought there was another spider in the basement, but upon looking closely realized it was just the shriveled corpse of the brown recluse. Man, they sure look different after you gas them.

2.) Everything kind of feels like a huge ordeal right now. At least I didn't oversleep today, tempting though it was. I also wish it didn't take me forever to perform basic tasks and that more or less everything weren't more interesting to me than what I'm supposed to be doing. A "good" day, at this point, is one where I don't sleep too much, remember to take my meds, and get some exercise. I hope to work up from there, but I figure if I start with small attainable goals I'm probably not going to get overwhelmed and give up.

3.) I really, really miss having the domain and think I might resurrect it, but I'm in this place where I'm making myself earn it and so on.

Quick note for anyone who gives a shit, which almost certainly is limited to [livejournal.com profile] forgottensanity and [livejournal.com profile] jurhael--the domain will return in the next couple of weeks or so (HOREY). However, some changes will be made. Below, a précis:

1.) I've had it up to here with PowWeb, which as you knew was coming for some time. We're switching to DreamHost. This means that pretty much all the files that were up on XFO before are now going to be lost, so I hope everyone has backups. This is not a big deal for me, since TI had been taken down and I've got layouts and text for my other projects saved here and there, but it may be to you. Also, I'll have to reconstitute everyone's e-mail and FTP passwords and so on and so forth. Cat, DreamHost may have WebFTP; I'm not sure, I'll need to dick with it.
1a.) Also, we're prepaid for two years, so we won't need to worry about this again until 2009. WIN. I'm not paying significantly more than what I was paying at PowWeb, on the off chance either of you cared.

2.) The domain name will change. I still own XFO but am planning to quietly drop that name after the registration expires next year. The new domain will be xi-feng.net because I am ever so very creative.

That's all. l33 out.
