Comments(4) …that every time I have a pause in blogging, then I post one big post, that there’s an update to WordPress waiting after I publish my post?
Well, it was there before the Publish button got involved, but it’s almost the same thing.
Oy.
Off I go to backup and download and extract and upload and upgrade and test.
Oy.
Skåll!!!
Comments(2) When everything feels so firmly planted in the thunderbucket lately you feel like there’s no way to climb out, (read: politics, gas prices, politics, cost of living, politics, stock prices, politics, housing market, neverending politics etc.) how can we make sure to take that left turn at Albuquerque?
Since this blog is about me, here’s my perspective: I work at a bank and I see everyone leaking a little brain-juice from the ears over all the above listed crap. It’s a low-level constant worry: the fear that cuts will have to be made, and that one of those cuts will be you.
I just can’t stand around and watch everyone going insane in the most subtle of ways. I feel it’s my duty to do what I can to buoy morale.
So I got a Darth Vader helmet.
Well, there’s more to this story than just that.
It’s so gawddamned frustrating. I’m busy: writing, re-writing, editing, arranging and rearranging information all day at work, dealing with things as they arise and generally don’t have the time to sit and daydream, but behind it all, that little part of my brain that keeps itself separate to catch me when I’m doing stupid stuff is just looking around nervously, jumping at little noises, not keeping me out of trouble.
What is that little mental-me’s problem? How can I figure out this thing? What is this thing anyway? Why does it bother me so? And why am I thinking this stuff on 08/08/08?
