My lovely 3yr old daughter awoke at 315am this morning. I'd be up a bit before that to work on my website which is coming along gradually. Sophie just wanted cuddles....then toast.....then asked me to put tom and jerry on the laptop....then.....
Anyway....by the time I put the toast in the toaster and had pushed play on the B.S.Player all I heard was snoring...LOL
I'd been really quiet in the office/my bedroom so it was another one of those bad dreams shes been having I think.
Come nine oclock this morning and we were both awake watching tv. I'd managed to sort her breakfast....and get her ready for my parents who had promised to take her to Colchester zoo today. They left at about 915am which meant I had a good day to myself which I had no intension of wasting watching DVD or playing in the studio. So I spent most of this morning working the java code for loading the webcam directly through my wifi and stream it to the server...(something like that.)
The point is, is that I want to leave the camera running without it becoming a problem for bandwidth or for that matter a security risk for my setup. I think I've nearly sorted it thanks to getting the channels sorted and the port protocols for my Linksys which didn't like having my backdoor open for a while whilst I set it up.
I have a bad feeling that it'll give me more than the odd headache before I actually feel happy with it and the cam settings. Fingers Crossed.
I worked with Dreamweaver on the off site links earlier within my index page. I intend to host my block on my own server at home if I can sort it out somehow. I don't want to have to use any external links if I can help it. Obviously the links page which speaks for itself will have to be left as it is.
I'm pretty excited as I received news today .... that one of my friends whom I hung out with last summer has spoken with a mutual friend and is wanting to launch some kind of regular recording work with me. This is doubly great as not only does she play guitar AND is a wicked singer but it may hopefully lead to putting a new band project together that I've been giving serious thought to.
A few years ago I used to write for a band who used to record at a studio called LimeLite which was in Battersea London. It's a real shame it closed as the Engineer and Producer/Owner was a great guy who tried to help me launch my own music career back in the early nineties. Rick sylvan if your reading this (unlikely...?) get in touch.
I learned a great deal about music production etc and would love to get back into writing. I intend to put up some of my new material at some point when there's time. I have to get my college work up to date first but it'll be great to get some stuff put up online and allow friends etc to hear what I'm really about. I digress on this subject as I am starting to reminisce a little too much of the past.
My studio at home...
Anyway...I better go and get this site looking a bit better as my head graphic is a little iffy to say the least. Does anyone know the script to allow for mouse trails. I want to add a little something special to the site.
Before I go....I must say a quick hello to a certain someone who came up and sat with me the other day.I was sitting there and a really nice voice simply said "Nick" I won't say where or anything. She knows who she is. I just wanted to say hi and to tell you that you really made my day as it wasn't going too well. Oh...and sorry I couldnt come out with you guys for the night out. I will next time you can count on it.
Bye bye for now
