Happy Halloween!
Hope it’s a fun one for everybody. If I can find a nice spooky (public domain) story I might post a reading of it later. I really don’t have anything else on tonight and I feel like doing something besides sitting here watching old horror movies on Turner Classics, awesome as that may be. [...]
Home sweet home
I’m back from my trip, and finally beginning to function like normal again. I hadn’t realized just how much into a routine I’d gotten until I left it.
Our kitty seemed a bit out of sorts at first, like he wasn’t sure what to make of me, but now he’s even more relaxed than ever. [...]
More bullet points
Security check went fine, though my shampoo was in the wrong size ziplock. They gave me one in the right size for the return trip and were quite congenial about it.
I had a great seat right over the wing, and yummy lemony complimentary cookies.
My mom’s new kitty Millie is adorable!
I feel useful because I fixed [...]
Quick hits for October 9th
Just a couple of things I wanted to post before I get on my plane tomorrow.
Though I will have net access on my trip, I’m not likely to have much time for posting so it’s going to be pretty quiet here.
The net that I will have access too is going to be more stable then [...]
Brandon Illustrates Why Mono Sucks
I had a really bad case of Mono back in college (my guess is I got it from sharing a cigarette, another reason not to smoke kids!) so I can vouch for the truthiness of this video. I was lucky in one regard that I didn’t realize until I saw this just now, my tonsils [...]
My tale of woe
Our lovely new kitty Nibblr, has eaten through the power supply cord of our 4 day old Nintendo Wii, with a rental game still inside the console. I’ve read that there’s a sour apple spray you can get at pet stores that mostly made to keep them from licking wounds that need to be left [...]
Quick update
Still sick, but I’m going to have a go at fixing some things. In the meantime I wanted to share a couple of things that made me happy today.
I just passed the 3000 mark in spam comments blocked by Akismet (remember that I hit three hundred just a couple weeks ago?).
For the first time ever [...]
Upgraded, and only sorta broken (yay!)
The upgrade went okay, I had the wrong version of the google sitemaps plugin (and I was so sure I’d checked it) so that threw up some errors on posting until I installed the right one. Unfortunately it’s having a little bit of trouble with the plugin I’m using to power my galleries, so the [...]
Big damn upgrade
I’m putting the site into maintenance mode in a few minutes to upgrade to WordPress 2.3! I’m going to save all the other changes for sometime later in the week (at least that’s the plan) and do the transition having “categories” to having “categories AND tags” gradually as I figure out how I want to [...]
