Asides

Invaluable plugin.

By Steph ⋅ May 28, 2008 ⋅ Comments

Do you run a self-hosted WordPress blog? Do you use the “Subscribe to Comments” plugin? If so, goodonya. If not, what the heck are you waiting for, chickadee? This plugin allows your readers to actually keep up with comments with minimal effort…this is a good thing.

My MIL has some ’splainin’ to do.

By Steph ⋅ May 27, 2008 ⋅ Comments

So, Bill and I were watching this VH1 “I love the 70s” thing. January 14, 1973, Elvis broadcasted a concert from Hawaii. (My MIL is a huge Elvis fan. Except not in that weird, crying-at-Graceland way.) October 18, 1973, William Eugene Ferrel arrived. You do the math.

Themes.

I found a brilliant new theme by Derek Punsalan at 5thirtyone.com. Utterly smashing. But implementing it means hours of work so that my blog doesn’t appear broken. Will I implement it anyway? Of course.

Blog projects.

I know there’s a “family friendly” blog project going on, but is there a “This blog is for fucking grownups, bitch” project out there anywhere?

Oh, Google.

Why, oh why, do you mock me with that stinkin’ ad all over my site? Here, let’s try this…I love my Dyson vacuum. It glides so smoothly that I’m able to wear my Weitzman stilettos while I use it. And I never, ever mess up my Vera Wang dress, either.

Photojojo.

Photojojo has this nifty little time capsule thing they do. Twice a month they e-mail you the “most interesting” photos from a year ago. (If you have Flickr, that is.) Go check it out, huh?

Whatcha think?

Those forums are going to waste, so I was thinking maybe I could link the question of the week (in the poll) to a thread in the forums. That way, if you want to debate the merits of D-SLR v. Point & Shoot, you have a place to do that. (No pressure, though.) Thoughts?

Clarification about the contest.

By Steph ⋅ April 19, 2008 ⋅ Comments

In my post about the contest, I forgot that LJ readers are able to comment via the LJ feed. Consider this fair warning - the only entries I’m considering are the ones posted here. Period.
I’m not trying to be a hag here, just trying to keep it simple. :)

Proof of the power of prayer.

By Steph ⋅ April 17, 2008 ⋅ Comments

Yesterday, I asked you guys to pray for Bill’s friend, Larry. Today, Larry got some much-needed good news. Coinkydink? I think not. So, thank you again. :)

Prayers, please?

By Steph ⋅ April 14, 2008 ⋅ Comments

There’s a gig that we want. It’s a good gig in a good location. If y’all could pray/send positive thoughts/whatever way you ask your Deity for stuff for us to get that gig, it would be fabulous.
