13 Events in the last 24 hours

1. I woke up to find my web site gone.
2. GoDaddy, whom I thought I was done with, had their parking/ad page in place of my blog.
3. I sent off to Blue Host to as what gives.
4. Before I got an answer I figured it out by going to my old account at GoDaddy.
5. My domain registration had expired.
6. I screamed for a little while. I had done so much work over the summer getting everything moved over to where I wanted it and was so sure I’d gotten the registration transfered to Blue Host and that everything was set for the foreseeable future and now this?!
7. I tried to transfer the domain.
8. Again
9. and again.
10. I thought I had it done, and deleted my GoDaddy account.
11. My blog came back! Yay!
12. I checked my blog to find GoDaddy in my place again. The transfer didn’t take.
13. That’s when the nightmares began. $50 later I own my domain again. Not counting hair replacement therapy costs.

Don’t sign up with GoDaddy. They do the weirdest things to keep you from being able to leave.
