Okay, here I am! I survived without Internet! There was Internet at the airport, but you had to pay for it. There was even Internet on the airplane (!) but of course you had to pay for it.
Jetlag has been almost no problem. Now that is amazing! When we first got back from the airport, it was maybe 7 pm and me and my sister were falling asleep. We slept all the way through the night except for from 4 to 5 am and woke up at a decent time. Next night we went to sleep at 8 pm and woke up a good time again. Hurray!
We first arrived at the house of a family that has 12 acres of land with lots and lots of forest, three ponies, one horse, and the biggest yard in the world. They had three boys which were very fun to play with. We spent the day climbing around in the forest and getting muddy and wet. It was totally awesome!!
So today we set off at 11 am to go to my grandmother's house. It was just a two hour drive. She has a really pretty yard with running-around space, lots of flowers, a swing, and a fishpond. She also has a snug little house.
I can't wait to keep going on with my America trip! It's been really fun so far!

I love wikis! I found some great free wiki software called WikiRootry. You can go to www.sourceforge.net and look up WikiRootry, and there you go, you can download it. I'm making a neat wiki for all my imaginary planets, and boy is it fun! Even my sister loves it!
The related link is to my wiki. Please check it out and find out about my whole neat world!

I'll keep you guys updated when I have the chance.

P. S. When are you going to start leaving comments for me? I don't want to nag, but I would really super appreciate it!!

Okay, first things first: I'm going to America tomorrow! Can you believe I forgot until now?! We're going to be picked up to go to the airport at 7:30 pm, and I'm bringing the laptop with me. Maybe there will be Internet at the airport!

News number two: I've added a wiki and forums to my website! However, they are only for my friends. No offense to the person who happens to stumble across my website, but my parents feel much safer when I only allow people I already know to contact me through the Internet.

News number three: I'd also have to install an Apache web server to be able to set up a Wikipedia-style wiki. If I'm going to be doing all that anyway, why not turn my laptop into a web server? I don't know...I might be acting a little too ambitious. Comments, PLEASE! If you are looking at my blog, I would ABSOLUTELY AND COMPLETELY THANK YOU for leaving a nice comment!

The related link is MediaWiki.org, where you can download the wiki engine that was used for Wikipedia. It is absolutely free for people who are blessed with a database-and-PHP-equipped server.

I have MySQL installed!
I could install PHP!
I don't care if I can't make an official website, you know, something like alison.com or anything like that!
Could I install MediaWiki and have my own Wikipedia-style wiki? Now that would be absolutely and completely cool!!! Personally, I would rather switch to a different server than make my own mini-server, but I take what works!
Or do I?
Comments, please!! If it won't work tell me!
