Well, yesterday was no fun. Our WorthDownloading server was hanging on by a thread for some reason and then ended up dying with a hard drive crash. While I was trying to tend to that emergency, the main WorthPlaying server went belly-up as well.
Both Web sites run off different, dedicated servers due to the volume of traffic they generate, and they're even in two different locations, so conspiracy theories were flying through my head. What are the chances of two servers in different locations crapping out at the same time? Slim to none.
While the WorthPlaying issue was easily fixed (a stupid router issue), the WD fix might take a little longer. Turns out our promised hardware upgrades never happened. The old equipment just gave out, and a new HD has already been plugged in, but we need to reinstall a bunch of stuff to make it operational.

Yesterday was such a beautiful day. It was nice and sunny but not too hot, with a nice little breeze. Doesn't get much better than that! Amazingly enough, we actually decided to put down the cookies, get off the couch, strap on the boots and go for a hike. Nothing too crazy, a few hours just to ease us back into it. Maybe we'll crank it up a little next week.
We also watched some more Amazing Race and a few episodes of Leverage. Perhaps later today, we'll head out to watch either Green Lantern or Super 8.
Apart from that, no plans whatsoever. Should be great! :)
