I sold my first toque yesterday!
Kikkert bought it for $10. I feel happy. I also beat Tanton in ping pong yesterday. Here comes the Boon.
The other day I had a record of records day for my other website, www.garrettsbridges.com. I had over 5100 unique visitors in one day. That is more than double my previous record. Over 13000 pageloads across the site. I was pretty stoked. I made more through Adsense that day than I had any other day, despite the CTR being low. I also saved $200 by paying for school now through the nice exchange rate. That paid for my ticket home. I am also way ahead on my homework, at least for now.
I had a sweet talk with Dustin last night. He introduced me to a “steamer,” which is basically heated and frothed flavored milk drink. It was pretty good. I would buy one again.
Most merciful God, we confess we have sinned against You in thought, word, and deed. By what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved You with our whole hearts, we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and humbly repent. For the sake of Your Son, Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us. That we may delight in Your will and walk in Your ways, to the glory of Your name. Amen.

WordPress 2.7 is going to be released on the 10th. I am actually super stoked because it has some sweet new features. It will be useful for my main website, garrettsbridges.com and also fun to play around with here. I wasn’t excited to upgrade to 2.6, but 2.7 is way better. Two of the new features are actually two things that I had thought of suggesting to add, which is kinda cool.
