A Resolution

Alright, I’ve really neglected my blog over the past few months and I feel bad. So, I’m going to turn over a new leaf and try my darndest to blog more regularly this summer. All of the craziness that happened today was kind of like a wakeup call for me, and it’s one that I’ve desperately needed. I know that I didn’t really explain what happened in my last post, so I’ll do it now.

I received an email from my host saying that I had used too much disk space and needed to do some housekeeping. I logged into my blog to try and see if there was anything in particular that was taking up so much space, and I found a bunch of really old backups. I decided to purge the older ones and ended up deleting everything. So now, I have nothing but my blog. I lost all of the themes/plugins that I had uploaded for my blog, but those can be replaced. What cannot be replaced and what I am sad/worried about is the fact that I lost all of my uploads (the images in blog posts) and the design for my Independent Research project, which is due on Monday. I’m trying to obtain a backup, but things are looking bleek.

So that’s what happened today. But back to the summer thing. I’m going to start blogging and vlogging regularly. Hopefully, things will actually be going on that I can blog about over the summer.

For me, summer officially starts in six days. I have full days of school on Monday and Tuesday and then exams from Wednesday to Friday (which means half-days). I have a party on Friday night, and then I’m getting my molars surgically removed the next Monday (6/16), which means that I’ll be spending the first few days of summer laying in bed, getting pumped with oxycodone. At least I can get those painful little bitches out.

Then, UHL starts Friday. I can’t wait. :)

OH MY GOD.

I just broke my blog. Like majorly.

I got an email the other day saying that I was using too much disk space (in other words, I had uploaded too many files). I went into FTP to try and delete some of them, and in the process I deleted all of my files by accident. Shitfuckhelldamn.

My databases are alright, but everything else (including all of my image uploads) is toast. Shoot me.

Blah, April 2008 Edition

This week has been hella busy. End of marking period in school = tons of work to do. And by tons, I mean too much. And my too much, I mean presentations to assemble and papers to write and Cappies shows to review. And, even after ten hours of sleep and a pretty low-key day, I’m still really exhausted.

On Friday, I had a huge government test. I didn’t have any time to study this week (mediocrity seemed to manifest itself in everything that I did this week), and I got an “F” on the test (50%). Then, I went to turn in my Independent Research AP presentation and my teacher gave me that “look” and made that “noise” when she saw it. I have a feeling that it didn’t go over to well. But here’s the worst part: my horoscope had some business about something bad turning out good that day. So, uh…what happened to that? I’m not sure.

This week, WordPress 2.5 was released and I upgraded. I like a lot about the new backend. Except for the color scheme. The color scheme looks like blue pastel paint palette ate some bad Mexican food and got pretty bad indigestion all over my blog, plus some random disgusting orange business here and there, although I will say that the ‘Classic’ theme is much better.

On a closing note, I’d like to link to two blogs that I’ve been enjoying recently: The Panda Page (which is full of hilarious randomness) and The Confluence (a pro-Hillary blog that has a ton of food for thought).

Happy Saturday.

Upgrade Madness

Alright, so the upgrade to WP2.3 has been stressful and has broken my categories…somehow, they don’t display on the home page, but they do on the category pages.  Some of the plugins that I use are screwey, and I don’t know how to really fix any of it.  Hopefully I can get this all figured out soon.  I’m so frustrated!

See? What Did I Tell You?

I’ve just upgraded to WordPress 2.3, and I’m already having problems….the upgrade screwed something up with my categories.  Crap-o!

This might take a while to fix…other than that, everything should be okay.  If it’s not, please email me!
