Yet another update on the website
Most of the stuff is done… unfortunetly the domain transfer is in limbo someplace. Man do I hate Network Solutions! First we had to transfer control from bigstep’s special Network Solutions reseller system to a standard Network Solutions account. That went through so then I sent the transfer request to have the domain moved from Network Solutions to 000Domains.com, my registar of choice.
Why do I use 000Domains.com? Simply becuase they just do what I want to do, manage my domain names. They don’t throw tons of crap at you trying to get you to use other services that are pointless. Sure they’re not the cheapest place to register domains names but $13.50 a year isn’t that bad. Betters than NS at 35 or whatever they charge.
So I sit here waiting for NS to do something. Everything is authorized on my end. The domain is listed in my 000Domains account but says it’s waiting for a response from the loosing registar. I’ll doublecheck with my GF tonight to make sure she didn’t miss an email from NS verifying the transfer request but I’m pretty sure she hasn’t.
This is just rediculous that hoops I’m having to jump thru to take back control of something that belongs to my GF in the first place.
Honestly, I’ll be so glad when I never have to mess with Bigstep or Network Solutions again! Blah!
Man sometimes… sometimes! he he he

It’d be a lot simpler just to go Amish, wouldn’t it?
