Hot Buns . . .
I spent part of the morning on the phone with Godaddy again, trying to work out the problems with my PHP script that connects with my MySQL database.
Actually, I’m pretty sure the problem is not with my script but with the info I’m getting from Godaddy, since I can’t even get the script to open the database. All that needs is the hostname, the username, and the password.
I know the username and password are correct because I set them on the database. And Godaddy tells me that the hostname is the server’s IP address and port number. And I know the script is actually executing, because it gives me the programmed error message saying it can’t connect right now.
So the only thing that makes sense is that the hostname info is incorrect. But I know the IP address and port are correct themselves, since that’s on the database page. So maybe the hostname is not the IP/Port name.
So it’s back on the phone with Godaddy tomorrow.
Jan and I often buy the King’s Hawaiian Buns to make slider-sized sandwiches, and King’s has come out with something new that bumps the taste up a notch.
It’s a jalapeno version of their regular ones, and they’re really good, and fairly hot. For lunch today Jan made us each a couple of Pimento Cheese sliders using the new buns, and with Jan’s great homemade Pimento Cheese, they really hit the spot.
A little before 5pm Jan and I headed right down the Interstate to meet up with Dick (not Ed) and Judy Mott for dinner at Mama Juanita’s Mexican Restaurant. They had their grandson Logan visiting them so he was there too.
We had invited our friend Randy Lazarine to come along with us, but he already had plans, so it was just us.
Dick and Judy had been here before, but this was our first time. Our friend’s Brett and Frankie O’Neal had also recommended the place, so with two great recommends, we knew it had to be good.
And it was.
Jan had the Combo Fajitas Gratinada and I had the Beef Fajitas Poblanas,
with Dick and Judy both having the Lemon Shrimp.
But even better than the food was the company and conversation. And as many times before, we were there over 3 hours, talking, laughing, and comparing stories.
We finally shut the party down a little after 8pm and headed home for the night. Hopefully we’ll be able to get together again before we leave for Colorado River on Sunday.
Tomorrow afternoon we’ll be driving down to our daughter Brandi’s in Katy to have dinner and pick up our packages, including the part needed to repair our Sharp Microwave, which Jan is really looking forward to.
Thought for the Day:
Don’t knock on death’s door. Hit the doorbell and run. He hates that.
