i need to figure out why my Reading Now plugin and Flickr isn’t working.

my hosting company changed my DNS and server a few days ago…ugh.

i can’t figure out why my plugins are broken. can someone help me? i will pay you via paypal!

thank you to http://mysticmedusa.com

For some reason, my DNS changed and no one from my hosting company thought to tell me this…until three e-mails later asking WHY my site was down for this entire time. WTF?

Anyway…some GREAT news!!!

I GOT PROMOTED!!!!

Yes, PROMOTION!!!!

AND I got an AWARD along with $250 gift card to AMEX. It’s not a huge sum of money but it’s the fact that I was nominated for an award for my hard work is what makes me happy! It’s a “Performance and Team Award for Absolute Personal Best.” for becoming the subject matter expert in NetDMR and the O&M team. (woo hoo)

(I blanked out my last name) It’s a nice little plaque that I can put in my office and alongside are the little gift cheques from AMEX. I think I will invest in a Kindle or Nook with the money (or pay off some bills). I’ve been divided between which eReader so hopefully sometime this weekend I can go and take a look at both. My hard work for the past two years have paid off!  It was quite a way to start off my week as I heard about my promotion and award on Monday this week. Now…just more hard work to look forward to! haha. just kidding..i hope.

This is a new little website by a talented artist that I have to mention.

I have got some crazy deadlines and I needed to take a break….so I go to my blog and find no motivation to write.

I haven’t been to any new restaurants that I can write a review on about except this pie place in Vienna, VA called PIE GOURMET!

I picked up a slice of banana cream pie and a frozen chicken spinach pie that I’ll be heating up sometime this week….will let you know details.

Update: I think I’m slightly allergic to overripe bananas. I ate half of the slice - overwhelming happiness ensued -  then slight redness and itchiness started happening on my chin and in my throat. wonderful….but i still ate the crust and cream…pie. -insert dirty joke-

So. HAIRCUT time.

after 2 hours of cutting 10 inches of my hair, all-color black, and highlights…..HERE IS THE NEW AMY!!!
