I had high hopes of doing some serious rewriting tonight based on the input of some very special people. But despite realizing yesterday that I was starting to feel physically better, tonight when I got home it was back to feeling very poorly. Oh well.

Thank you, thank you, thank you Kurt!
The only (simple) thing I cannot swear to have tried yesterday was found by Kurt to fix my missing archives page. Heck, he even had his beer before I met him at the bar, so it didn’t cost me anything but a little time (and clearly less of [...]

I found a new theme for WordPress that I really like, Cutline. But its default installation doesn’t have a few things I want, like my new contact form, so I’m holding off on activating it. I’ve tried what it says for making the Contact page show up, but it isn’t working.

I seem to have exhausted all benefits of having one class over already. I have spent all day so far (till 4:30 PM) on Marked Exercise 2 for Allen. Unit 2 is on Data-oriented modeling: Relation-based systems. This is the 2nd entire unit that I “missed” most of; luckily it is the [...]
