Blog

This will show up on RSS, and I’m sure someone will freak. Oh my god, she’s alive.
Have been. For a while. Newsvine has been taking up my time. I write there sometimes, and then sometimes I just link to stuff.
I’ve been debating about using this blog to talk about the issues that come up at work. No, not about work, but the law. Yes, yours truely has found herself some legal work, though for the time being I do mostly translation stuff. I think it might help though if I started writing down some of the interesting immigration principals I run across when I’m sent to do research for a client.
Nope. No confidentially breaking here.
It’s all just thoughts though.

TOUCHDOWN!!!!!!!

You know it’s a bad day when the offense decides to not show up for the third time in a row.
Appalling.
0-3 for the season?
Really?
Sad to say it, but I’m really missing Quinn and Ty.

See the Ipod Touch? It’s nice and cute, and it has wi-fi. I can go to Starbucks, access the net, check my email, and do some newsvining if I wanted to with a ‘touch. First, it needs more gigs. This is why I might pine for it in the meantime.

And it’s game time. I love the start of the game.
Oh crap!! Seriously? No. Please say that didn’t happen. Ok, they’re going to review it. Please don’t say it’s a fumble.
Yes!! It’s first down Irish.
So, this Demetrius Jones guy is interesting. He’s not quick. I just hope he doesn’t try to pull a Quinn.
I think I’m already nervous.
5 min. later: SOB! It’s going to be a long game. Methinks Tech may score. Damn It.

For the majority of us checking voicemail costs us minutes. Well I learned today that if I called my own number, I would be connected directly to voicemail. This in turn would be treated as an in network call. No peak minutes spent and no accidental charges should I go over my minutes.
Of course this trick won’t stop me from automatically pressing the #1 button each time I have messages. What can I say, habits are tough to break!

Courtesy of yours truly, my parents and I now own this years official ND Shirt. Just in time for the first game against Georgia Tech on September 1st. Of course what would make the experience even better is an Irish win.
No brainer, right?
There’s nothing like college football to pull me out of a blogging doldrum.

I’m now on the 4th release candidate of MT. I haven’t really run into many bugs during the upgrade process. The only minor annoyance has been fiddling with the templates to make them compatible with this layout, which may see its final days anyway.
The biggest problem has always been and still seems to be my server. Making any changes to the templates seems to throw the script into a kind of white out phase. Deleting more than three comments does the same. Since I can now place my archives into a dynamic state, I’m sure the load on my server is remarkably less, but it shouldn’t have been a problem to begin with. The truth is my server can’t handle MT right now, and my host can’t explain why.

Coming to you live from Moveabletype RC 1.

Comments will be closed soon. At least until the new version of MT4. It’s ridiculous how badly I’m getting bombarded. Oh, and my server still can’t handle rebuilds. It’s all so frustrating.
