 * when i enabled force ssl for the admin area it made it to where i cannot login
   to the admin area without disabling the plugin through ftp (by renaming the plugin).
   how can i disable this? is there a setting in the mysql table i can change? the
   thing is i had feeling this exact thing would happen

 * actually relatively painless.
 * How do I reset the plugin’s settings?
    Go to /wp-content/plugins/wordpress-https/
   wordpress-https.php and uncomment (remove the two forward slashes before) the
   line below, or go to your wp-config.php file and add this line. Hit any page 
   on your site, and then remove it or comment it out again.
 * `define('WPHTTPS_RESET', true);`
