I’m Back

Thanks to Flo, I’ve now read and watched Twilight.  If I was still a teenager, I think I would be in love right now.  As it is, however, we laughed.  A lot.  Inappropriately.  Ha!  To be fair, most of the audience in the theatre laughed along with us, so it’s not just that we’re getting old.  We wore our “Cullen Boys” shirts and I was pleasantly surprised to see that there were quite a few adults in attendance.  We struck up a conversation with the ladies behind us and found out they are English teachers and have enjoyed the books, but wanted to know if the film would help or hurt their chances of convincing more teens to read.  Um, good luck, ladies.

Sean Bean finally returned to Crusoe this week.  I’m currently watching on Hulu, and I’m hoping it’s more than the cumulative 3.1 minutes we’ve had so far.  The show’s alright, I suppose, but let’s face it–I only watch for Bean.  SGA was another skip for me this week.  I watched the teaser that showed Shep and Ronon going camping, realized it was the McKay/Keller ep, and promptly deleted it from the DVR.  It still boggles my mind how this show managed to go from my #1 to an automatic delete.  Wow.  As usual, Merlin entertained, even though it was pretty much a filler episode.  Some relationships were heightened slightly, so I guess the ep had its merits.

I’ve been using the new WP for a month or so now, and with this newer version, I can use widgets.  I could never get them to work properly in the past, and to be honest, I didn’t care if they worked or not.  Now, however, you can hardly get through the directory without people calling their code “Plugins” but actually meaning “Widget”.  If you can’t run it as a plugin, you shouldn’t call it as such.  I think WP needs a separate “Widget” listing.  Luckily, some widget authors are willing to help you convert their code to standalone code, such as Peter from AVH Amazon, but most requests go unanswered.  There’s a widget that allows you to execute any standalone code, so to be assured that you can use that dandy new thing you’ve found, you’re almost bound to the use of widgets.  Grr, and OK.  As for the theme, if it won’t load properly, hit the site with a ctrl-f5 and that should do it.

Tuesday and Friday were snow days.  Hooray!  :cold:

  1. Hey there! I’m at work browsing your blog from my new
    apple iphone! Just wanted to say I love reading through your blog and
    look forward to all your posts! Keep up the fantastic work!

  2. My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
    I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
    But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on several websites for
    about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
    I have heard good things about blogengine.net.
    Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it?
    Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!

  3. An interesting discussion is definitely worth comment.
    I believe that you ought to publish more about this topic, it may not be a taboo matter but generally people do not speak about these subjects.
    To the next! All the best!!

  4. It’s remarkable to go to see this web site and reading the
    views of all colleagues regarding this article, while
    I am also keen of getting knowledge.

  5. Thank you for another wonderful post. Where else could anyone
    get that kind of info in such an ideal means of writing?
    I’ve a presentation next week, and I’m at the look for such
    info.

  6. I know this website provides quality based articles and
    extra material, is there any other site which offers these things in quality?

  7. Whats up this is somewhat of off topic but I was
    wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code
    with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding experience so I wanted to get guidance from someone with
    experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  8. all the time i used to read smaller posts that as well clear their motive,
    and that is also happening with this paragraph which I am reading here.

  9. Thanks a bunch for sharing this with all folks you really understand what you are
    speaking approximately! Bookmarked. Kindly also talk over
    with my site =). We will have a link trade agreement among
    us

  10. Hello I am so happy I found your site, I really found you by error, while I was searching on Yahoo for something
    else, Anyhow I am here now and would just like to say many thanks for a incredible post and a all round thrilling blog (I also love the theme/design),
    I don’t have time to read through it all at the minute but I have book-marked it and also included your RSS
    feeds, so when I have time I will be back to read a great deal more, Please do keep up the great work.

  11. What’s up, yes this piece of writing is really pleasant and I have learned lot of things from it about blogging.
    thanks.

  12. I’m really enjoying the design and layout of your website.
    It’s a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often. Did you
    hire out a developer to create your theme? Outstanding work!

  13. Aw, this was a really nice post. Spending some
    time and actual effort to create a really good article… but what can I say… I
    procrastinate a lot and never seem to get nearly anything
    done.

  14. Hmm it appears like your blog ate my first comment (it was
    extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
    I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to the whole thing.
    Do you have any tips and hints for beginner blog writers?
    I’d certainly appreciate it.

  15. Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this site.
    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very difficult to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appearance.

    I must say you have done a great job with this.
    In addition, the blog loads very quick for me on Chrome.
    Outstanding Blog!

  16. Howdy! I realize this is sort of off-topic however I had to ask.
    Does managing a well-established blog like yours take a lot of work?
    I’m completely new to running a blog however I do write in my diary on a
    daily basis. I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my own experience
    and views online. Please let me know if you have any ideas or tips for brand new aspiring blog owners.
    Appreciate it!

    all vital infos. I would like to look more posts like this .
