So Sunday was my birthday, and it was decided to have a deck party at Dede’s house.

Big thanks to her and Alex, from Tienda el Progresso, who supplied the food for the event.

Alex made me a special batch of Chicken Pozole, and a large peach/pineapple Tres Leches Cake.  I also scored 32 oz of Salsa Verde and Salsa Rojo from there.

I made Queso, Bean dip, and about 13 gallons of Sangria.

A pinata was pummeled, and Marc Laney, Merl, and Dirty Allie laid down some tracks.

Thanks to everyone who showed up and celebrated with me !  Jill took lots of photos, which I still haven’t looked through !

i’ve currently got some extra space on my server for anyone that’s needing to host their website.

it’s a linux server with php, mysql, perl, gallery2, and shell access.

I just updated the gallery software running on zenandjuice.com (URL: http://zenandjuice.com/gallery/).

If anyone had user galleries there previously, everything should be transferred over and updated to the new format. Let me know if there’s any problems.

i’ve been noticing a major amount of sluggishness on the domains that I host on my webserver recently.

finally tracked down some of the problems – linking to images on my site from places all over the internet. apparently people loooooove to put them in their sigs on forums and such.

so i starting playing with the apache mod_rewrite command and only allow referers (apache misspelling) from zenandjuice.com and livejournal.com since that’s where I intend my blog images to be seen.

so far, I haven’t implemented it site-wide (just in specific image folders), but I’m keeping a real-time watch on my log files to see how much stuff is stolen from elsewhere on my site.

those that do link to my images get redirected to this graphic:

zenandjuice.com (zenandjuice.com/) is 4 years old today.

I’ve had websites up on various domains since 09/1994, but I actually registered my primary domain 4 years ago today.
