*sigh* I don't think that I have the heart to try and rebuild my journal thread, so I'm just going to make a new one. Work and my other daily activities went about as normal as they do everyday. But today I was rather sad all day long because of what happened to the forum. The ezboard people didn't seem very optimistic that they would be able to recover the posts and I saw other boards that were damaged far worse than this one. *sigh* I guess all that there is for me to do is carry on, hopefully the MKR community will hold together and not drift apart because of this. v_v

*sigh* I'm sorry for everything that has happened here Hikaru-chan T.T

*Huggles* ^_^



As long as we still have our friendships I guess that's all that really matters. The hackers can't take that away from us, even if they ruin our boards and the happy memories that we've had here we can still treasure in our hearts.

*Huggles* It's okay Batou-san, there are times when it's good for me to be reminded that I'm not the only person with difficulties and that I shouldn't be selfish and dwell on only my own problems. v_v



Another day has gone by but no restore yet from Ezboard. The initial shock is over for me now I think and that things will slowly get better from here on. The weather outside was actually very nice today, it was bright and sunny and very warm, just the way I like it. ^_^ Work went pretty good too for the most part. Someone there did get rather pissed at me today because I didn't sign something off for them. Not every day can be perfect I know all too well. This evening I got to watch some anime for a little while and visit online too. Now I'm back here at the forum even though it seems to be working dreadfully slow.

Oooh, I noticed too. Pages took at least 3 minutes to load. Sometimes they just go to a 'this page cannot be displayed.' *sigh*

The forum seems to be working a little better today although there isn't any evidence that Ezboard has tried to restore it yet. Work went a little better today than yesterday and I didn't get anything thrown at me today. The proposal that I was working on got finished today, so now I can go back to doing some real work next week. :P The weather was really nice again, so no complaints in that department. This evening I came home and visited online for a bit and also watched a movie on TV and now I'm back here again. Oh, I did play PSO for a little while too. ^_^

Today was a very nice day outside as far as the weather goes, so for the first time this year I was finally able to get out and ride my bicycle for a couple of hours. This time I went for about 20 miles which is good for the first time out. ^_^ After that I had lunch and watched a movie on TV. I also burned a stack of anime CD's and visited online with friends. I know that the Ezboard disaster has affected all of us, but the quietness of the forum for the last two days has me pretty concerned. So I made a new forum section just for the purpose of open discussion about the future of our little place here.

Okies, Hikaru-chan is back again. ^_^ The weather was very warm and sunny again today which is always very nice except when I have to dress up for Sunday mass like this morning. But it really wasn't so bad, the car was worse because the air conditioning is still broke. >_< This afternoon I was pretty lazy and just visited online and played the PSO game with some friends. Mee went up two levels today. ^__^ This evening I went to this meeting with a whole lot of other people that are starting up a new social action group to put pressure on state and local governments to change things. For the most part I agree with them, but I'm not someone that eagerly gets involved with politics.

Glad that it's all alright for you now, Hikaru-chan. =D Your day went fairly well. ^^

Today went fairly well also. Work was pretty quiet and not too stressful. The weather was warm and humid with some thunder, but no storms hit where I was. This evening I went to a meeting at one of my church groups and got to socialize for a bit afterwards. Right now I feel a little iccky like the sickies are coming on, so hopefully I'll be okay tomorrow. This evening I've been here at the forum trying to get things going again, and I've had a lot of help which ahs been reassuring for me. ^_^

Uggh, today was a rather iccky day for me. This morning I woke up feeling really sickies. My head and ears were all stuffed up and that made me feel pretty dizzy like I was drunk, but it was a very bad drunk feeling. So I had to stay home from work today and I stayed in bed for most of the morning. Around noontime I got up and ate and then set up the Invision prototype forum for everyone to have a look at. It's too soon to start talking about moving, but I am concerned about Ezboard Inc's financial viability in the wake of this disaster. If the company goes under and the whole system goes offline I need to make sure that everyone has a place to escape to. This evening I've been mostly chatting for as long as my head holds up. ^_^;;

Ooopsiess, mee forgot to do this last night. ^_^;; Actually I was able to meet up with Docs and we played PSO together for a while. He got disconnected for some reason and once you leave a quest apparently, you can't join back up again. Actually that's one thing that I've not liked about PSO. Quests need to be completed start to finish in a single session and your progress can't be saved in between. If you get kicked out or log out before you're done, you'll have to start over again next time.



Yesterday was quite a bit better for me than Tuesday was. I still felt tired and a little iccky (still do today) but I was able to go to work and do everyday things. Work went pretty good, but was relatively chaotic, so it could have been better too. In the evening I didn't do much except visit online and play PSO and by the time I was done with that, I was too tired to come back again. *yawns* Also, I noticed yesterday that the stuff that had I cleaned up and moved to the archives this week had all disappeared ... another 13,000 posts all gone ... -__-

Okies, here I am again. Today went okay I guess. Most of the day I've been pretty tired and the sickies haven't quite left me yet, so it could have been better for me. Work was busy in the morning, but after lunch things quieted down and I was able to get a few things done. This evening I came home and napped for a bit because I was tired and now I've been able to visit online for a little bit. ^_^

Hehehe, I did another "ooops!" and forgot to do one of these yesterday. Today was another hot and humid day and I tried to spend most of it indoors in the air conditioning. However I did got out a couple of times today. The first time was a trip to the post office and I mailed some CD's to a friend in England. Later this afternoon I went to a barbecue at s friend's house. The food was good but it was very sticky outside. On the way back home I saw a gang of people riding buck naked on bicycles through the downtown area of my town. It was almost enough to make me throw up. >_< People should be arrested for doing stuff like that. Don't they care if children see?

Okies, here I am Hikaru-chan is back! ^_^ It was another very hot and sticky day here where I live. So of course I didn't feel like going out to do anything today ... so I didn't. :P Well, that's not completely true because I did go to mass this morning. This afternoon I just stayed inside and visited online, and played pso because today is the last day of the free beta.

The hot sticky weather continued again today, but I had to go to work. So I spent all day in the air conditioned office, but the temperature seems to have only one setting - freezing cold. Because of that I still had to run my heater anyways, otherwise I'd freeze. >_< This evening I came home and visited online with friends for a while, but that's about it. Now I am back to the forum again. ^_^

Today started out very much like the other days this week, very warm and sticky in the morning. However, around lunch time the heat finally went away and it cooled off a lot. It's much more pleasant outside right now. ^_^ Work was a little more quiet today so it was less stressful and I got a few things done. This evening I just chatted online for a bit and then came here again. ^_^

This was a sort of uninteresting day for me. Work wasn't really busy, but there were enough little things getting after me that I had a hard time concentrating on my own work. The weather was a lot nicer and cooler than it had been recently although I did get a little rain here this afternoon. This evening after I came home I chatted online for a while and then played around with forum themes after dinner. Now I've found my way back home to the MKR forum once again. ^_^

Hello, I'm back again after another day. The weather was cool and gloomy again like yesterday, but I had to work so it didn't really matter anyways. Work wasn't too bad, but it got really boring this afternoon until someone pulled the fire alarm. We all had to go outside, but it was almost quitting time, so I went home early. :P This evening I've just been doing online stuff ...

It's another Friday night and since Shii-chan has no life, I'm here wandering around the net again tonight. Things were kind of slow at work today, which is okay - I don't like being stressed all of the time. The weather was wet and rainy again today, so the plants are doing well, just rather depressing for me though. This evening I've just been visiting online, but I did watch a movie tonight. My son also brought a class video thingy home from school today and I watched that. It was soo adorable! ^__^

Aww cute! ^.^ What was the video about?



Ehhh.. the weather has been really horrible here too Hikaru-chan -0-; Non-stop rain and thunderstorms...

lol Adorable can be evil. ^.~



Oh and I wish it would rain here...lol its like everytime I hear the sound of water falling I look outside hoping for rain.

Ooooh, sorry that I didn't do this yesterday. The class video was just a slide show that they made from various field trips that the class went on. It was really cute and not evil Docs. Methinks that you've been watching too much anime. :P



Yesterday was a wet and iccky day, so I stayed in except for going out to lunch with everyone. A friend of mine got her Ragnarok server going again, so I set that game up and started playing again. That's about it for yesterday.



Today's weather was much better than yesterday's and the best day that I've had here in a week . This morning I went to Sunday mass as usual, and this afternoon I was actually able to go outside and do some yard work. This evening I've mostly done online stuff and watched a movie with the kiddies. Now I'm finally able to visit the forum. ^_^;;

Coolies. What movie was it Hikaru-san?

Erm, it was Monsters Inc. I think. ^_^



Things didn't go too badly for me even though it was a Monday. There were the usual problems at work, but nothing spectacular to get me all stressed out again. The weather was very nice today, warm but not humid and sweaty. After work I met with the tutor that will be with the kiddies this summer and I think that everything should work out very nicely with her. ^_^ After dinner I played WoW for a little while and spent time at the forums. And here I am. ^_^

Heh...my brother watched it. He really enjoyed it.

Kid's movies are fun to watch and I usually like them. ^_^



Things at work were very similar to yesterday today. However, I did have to sneak away from work at lunchtime to go to an appointment at the school. This evening I went and tried to play Ragnarok again, but every time I play it seems that I'm more convinced that I'm the worst player ever to set foot in the game. >_< Now I'm back to the forums where I feel more at home.

I was bad again and didn't do this yesterday because I was goofing off playing World of Warcraft again. :P There really isn't all that much to tell from yesterday anyways. Work was a little nutty, but not too bad. The weather was very nice yesterday afternoon when I got out so I enjoyed that a lot. In the evening I visited online for a little while, but I avoided Ragnarok this time and played WoW instead, which I'm somewhat better at, but not much. :P

Here I am again, back for some more tonight. This evening I've just been chatting with people online and whatnot, nothing very unusual. At work I was able to almost finish this project that's been lingering around me for a few months now, so things are looking up there too. The weather was sunny and pleasant here today, but the weather people are saying that it could become very hotness tomorrow. ^_^;;

Teeheehee, yesterday was so boring that I didn't even bother with one of these. Hopefully today will be betters. *melts* ^_^;;

Still all melty melty today. v_v Things were a little busier for me today than yesterday. This morning I went to Sunday mass and i sort of dressed up for it, but it was too warm to wear a jacket, that's for sure. This afternoon I visited online for a short time because I had a birthday party for my sister-in-law this afternoon and evening. It ended just a short time ago. Her boyfriend had never seen Japanese anime before, so I played a couple of episodes of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles for him and he was very intrigued. A new anime fan in the making? ^_^

Another hot and sweaty day here where I live, so again this evening I find myself hiding from the evil heat. Work wasn't too bad today, but it was nice to be there in the air conditioning. This evening there was just dinner, but besides that I've been hiding here in my room. ^_^;;

Today went pretty well for me. There weren't any big problems for me to fix so I was able to get some work done. The weather is still rather hot and sticky so I spent most of the evening hiding in my room in the air conditioning. I also played FFXI again for the first time in a little while which was some good fun too. ^__^

Ooopsies, I didn't come back to do this again last night. Actually, yesterday was pretty much a carbon copy of the day before, so yes, I have a dull life. v_v I suppose that reading this stuff in here might help people sleep though. There was a new person that I met in FFXI the day before, but I didn't see him last night, so hopefully he didn't give up on me already. ^_^;;

Teeheehee! I left a little time to do this after playing FFXI tonight. Things went pretty slow for me at work again today, but I really don't mind that much. The weather was as hot and sticky as ever, so once again I found myself hiding in my room to escape from the heat. This evening I mostly chatted with friends and not a whole lot happened. ^_^;;

Okies, here I am finally. I've been really tired all day today, so that's why I haven't been here until now. This morning I slept as late as I could, and then went to this local circus thingy with the kiddies. It was fun, but because I've been a little sickies it drained a lot out of me, so I took a nap this afternoon and didn't do very much online visiting. This evening we went out to dinner and I had this delicious salmon dish. That cheered me up and made me feel somewhat better. ^_^ I just came back a little while ago, and now I feel like seeing what's been happening here today. ^_^

Mm...sorry you felt sick...but it looks like that dinner did you some good...nice to see you here tonight...

Ah. Anyway...hope you're feelin' betters, Hikaru-san.

I'm doing better today. ^_^ The tiredness and headache aren't bothering me, but I'm still a little stuffy in the sinuses. v_v This morning I went to Sunday mass as I always do, so nothing different there. This afternoon I did a little yard work, but the in-laws are here visiting this weekend so I spent pretty much the rest of the day with them. It wasn't bad or anything, just no time to do any online stuff. Now I'm finally back here again. ^_^

This topic sort of got screwed up somehow. :P Yesterday I stayed up playing FFXI, so I didn't stop by to do this on Independance Day. For the most part it was a nice day off. The weather was very sunny and nice at first, but it got to be very warm in the afternoon so I stayed inside for the rest of the day. I was able to visit with friends online as well as play games, so it was a relaxing and fun day. ^_^

I missed doing this again last night, but it wasn't my fault this time. Yesterday evening there were a lot of thunderstorms rolling through the area, so I stayed off off the comp after about 6pm. It was a pretty normal day although it seemed like a Monday instead of a Tuesday. Last week a friend that I had known for a number of years at my church died and her funeral was yesterday, so I escaped from work for a little while to go to that. She was a contagiously fun person that loved to laugh and joke around alot and I'll miss her. v_v In the evening, I didn't do a lot and went to bed early for once. ^_^;;

There's not a whole lot to say about today, but a few things happened. First thing this morning I caught one of the late crew still hanging out here when I first got up. :P Work went pretty good, but there were quite a few miscellaneous issues that I had to deal with that broke up the day. So I didn't get much done. ^_^;; This evening I was able to chat online with friends for a while and play a little bit of FFXI too. Now I have a chance to come back to the forum again. ^_^

Things were a little more interesting today than they've been in a while. Work went really well today for the most part and I was able to finish a stack of preliminary documents for the job that I've been working on. The weather was pretty nice and not very warm either. This evening I came home from work and chatted with friends and that's when I found out about the bombings in London. My friends in the UK were kind of shaken up by it and I don't blame them. I know that 9/11 wasn't all that long ago. This evening I visited the forums and played WoW for a while, but now I have to go for the night.

Well, here's Shii-chan finally. Things went pretty well for me today except that I got very little online time. The internet at work was brokiess today, so no visits here when I was on break or during lunch or just goofing off. :P This evening I went to see a baseball game with my son, so that used up most of the evening. It was a lot of fun and something that I don't get to do very often. ^_^ Now I finally get to come here, but it will be a pretty short visit I'm afraid. I'm really tired .. *yawns*

Hmm, the only thing that really stands out about today was how iccky the weather was (still is). From the minute I got up this morning it's done nothing but rain all day. I never even went outside once, so pretty much the whole day I stayed in the house and did online stuff - chatting, visiting forums, and playing online games. Things were actually kind of slow too. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. ^_^

Today the weather was much better than yesterday - nice and sunny and not very warm. Well, this morning it wasn't very warm, so it didn't bother me to dress up for Sunday mass this week. Later on after lunch it did get very warm, but I did spend a little time outside anyways. This evening I played some more of FFXI and finally came here to the Rayearth Forum to see how everyone is doing. Sorries for being absent today. v_v I also posted my Rayearth fanfic on ff.net today, but I have to go dig up the linkie so that everyone can go and read it. ^_^;;



EDIT: Here is the linkie - www.fanfiction.net/s/2477542/1/

Hmm, another boring post from Shii-chan coming up! :P Today was another Monday but things didn't go very badly at work for me. I started on a new project today that promises to be quite an iccky mess. I've gone through all of the old documents and sent it back to sales already to have it rewritten. :P This evening I've just been visiting online because it's been too warm outside to do anything else. Early this morning a milestone was achieved by one of the members here. Yuzuki-chan overtook my post count and for the first time since I started the forum, I am now in second place. ^_^;;

Teehee...That's probably my fault. lol And I'm likely to pass you in post soon. =P

Sooner or later yes, but you still have 1000 to go. XD



Okies, time for the latest news from the world of Shii-chan ... Things were pretty busy at work today, but I also got quite a bit of work done too, which was a little surprising. The weather was sunny and warm again today, but not quite as warm as yesterday. This evening I've been chatting online quite a bit, but I might want to go and play some sort of game tonight ... I'll see about that.
