My laptop’s wireless card appears to have died on me. It did this suddenly, without warning, and of course right in the middle of an IM conversation.
I only hope the problem really is the card itself, which can be replaced pretty easily. It’s also possible — and unfortunately rather likely — that the issue is [...]

Someone on a message board pointed me toward GoodReads. I’ve been poking around it this morning, and I think I like its interface better than LibraryThing.

There are times when I wonder why I’m paying for my own website, with URL registration and hosting fees, when all I really do here is blog. Then I read crap like this and I realize it’s totally worth the pittance I pay (less than $10 a month when averaged out) to not be at [...]

Miss Snark, the anonymous New York literary agent who has spent the last two years expounding upon what the publishing industry looks like from her perspective, is retiring.

One of the things I’ve always envied LiveJournal users is those fun little mood tags they have. So I decided to try a WP plugin I came across (My MooMus) that mimics it. But something seems to be wonky with the way it picks its path to the images. So now I have mood tags [...]

Yeah, I’m messing with my layout again. I’ve decided that my latest theme just isn’t doing much for me anymore, so I’m looking for something else. You may see a bit of jumping around for a little while. Please bear with me.

I’ve upgraded to the new WordPress 2.1 and now my links are gone.
They still exist in my control panel, thank all the forgotten gods, but my template doesn’t seem to be able to find them.
And I don’t have time to deal with it right now. So, I am linkless at least for the night. I’ll [...]
