If you can read this post, then I have successfully finished upgrading my blog software and migrating everything over into root.

If you can’t read this, then … well, then you’re not special are you? :P

If you encounter any bugs or down pages/images/whatever, please PLEASE let me know!

Ok, almost ready …

I’ve been having mega headaches, so I’ve been pretty much coming home, cooking and eating dinner, checking my email (note that I didn’t mention ANSWERING any :P), then going straight to bed. I feel a little better today, but I’m tired as all get out.

I’ve almost finished the new format. For a sneak peek, choose the test-ignore theme. Warning: I don’t have the theme chooser turned on for it yet, so if you do this you can’t switch back!

I’ll most likely move everything over tomorrow after I’ve had some sleep. The last time I tried doing an upgrade on little sleep, I hosed the whole damned thing and had to restore from backups. My patience is less than thin tonight, so I’ll probably wait, LOL.

I had to turn my cutesy little mood thingy off, so no more kaos ani’s. :( I might turn it back on later after I’ve figured out how to fit it into the new format. But then again, I might just leave it off.

I also have to figure out how to fit in a couple of other WP plugins that I’m currently not using but SHOULD BE. :oops:

Anyways *yawn* …. uh, what was I saying again?

Good night — yeah, that’s it.

WP upgrade and theme change (yes, AGAIN!)

July 6, 2005 by  

Just giving y’all fair warning … WordPress has yet another upgrade out, and I’ve been working on a new theme … actually I’m going to move the whole site into the blog, so look out! :)

I’ll be turning many functions on and off over the next few days, so don’t freak out if something appears broken or missing.

Beeeeen BUSY!

Spent the weekend working around the house and visiting my parents. They had gone on a cruise weekend before last, and this is the first weekend that we could get around to see them. Ate a LOT of food, swam in their pool, talked turkey, looked at vacation photos, ate more food, swam a bit, and it rained and stormed, *lol*

Hope everybody had a happy 4th. :)

I was reading the House Eclipse forums earlier today and my good pal Raven posted a piece that I absolutely loved and want to share with y’all.
