more about my poor website

[gmonkey42]

It's not the worst-case scenario, at least not yet. I finally got an e-mail from seanic on my UCD address, saying they'd been sending notices about non-payment to my AOL address. So I've paid now. What remains to be seen is whether I can get my domain renewed in time. I have until Wednesday, at which point seanic will delete all my files. I think. I'm not sure what'll happen if I don't get my old domain back, now that I've already paid. Presumably, I could just get another domain temporarily. I'm waiting to hear confirmation from seanic that they acknowledge my payment. And from OnlineNIC about renewing my domain. The only thing that worries me is that OnlineNIC will be slow about it and I'll get the domain back but only after seanic's canceled my account and deleted everything. I have almost everything on my hard drive; there are maybe fewer than 10 images - banners for other people's sites, avatars, that sort of thing - that I just put on the server and didn't bother to keep but I can go and get those easily enough. So I guess, objectively, it's not all that bad. Not like I didn't have my files on my hard drive. ...the way my luck's been going, my computer'll crash next. So I'm just burning all my web stuff onto a CD. OK, there it is.

I just feel so stupid for not having realized earlier that they were sending me the e-mails and I wasn't getting them. Goddamn AOL. If I didn't get the e-mail address free with my parents' account, I'd cancel it. I'm going to stop using it for anything important, though.

I also feel bloody annoyed that all of this could have been avoided if seanic had let me give them my new credit card number when I tried to.
