Flickr

As much as I hate to, I joined flickr. I don’t like sites like flickr because it takes the control out of my hands. Sometimes though, convenience out weighs the desire. I can’t get the blog by email function in WordPress to work correctly when using w/an image so I figure this is the next best thing.

I routinely like to upload pics from the phone and would like it to post automatically vs waiting so expect more random photos! Wahooo!

Funny Conversation

A guy I know rather well stopped me in the ‘hood today for what started as harmless conversation.

Guy: Hey, how are you? I haven’t seen you at bbs lately, how have you been?

Me: I’m good. I still go but just w/work it tends to be very erratic.

*And here is where it gets funny* He sorta stammers here.

Guy: Can I ask you a question?

Me: Shoot.

Guy: How often do you go? To bb’s I mean?

Me: It varies based on my mood and schedule. Sometimes, I’m lucky if I go once a month but I’ve been known to go twice in the same weekend.

Guy: Oh, that is too bad cause I’d date you if you didn’t go there.

Me: No you wouldn’t.

Guy: Why?

Me: Cause I don’t date hypocrites.

*I walk away as he stammers to pick up what is left of his jawline*

I tried my best not to laugh but I think he heard me as I walked away. You have to understand, I met “guy” there and our only interaction has ever been when I happen to see him there. And considering, I see him almost every time I go, I’d be willing to bet he goes a lot more than I do. I could care less however, the audacity of his comments cracked me up. Pity too, he has a really big one.

Upgrading

I’m upgrading to the newest version of WordPress today. If things are missing, broken, or look funny don’t worry. All will be back to normal by days end.

*Update to the upgrade* lol

All done. The update was simple but I’m always paranoid something will go wrong. I hack the hell out of my blog so I’m surprised it went so smoothly. The only glitch came w/the catergory restriction plug-in. I did a little code tinkering and managed to get it working again. (Pure luck mind you, I was clueless to what the part I took out was supposed to do.) I tested a few comments on the hidden posts however, if you discover a bug or a problem, let me know.

Gentle Reminder

I just had to ban the 3rd person ever from my blog today. Only after a very snotty email mind you. I don’t have time for such antics.

I certainly don’t begrudge anyone the right to make money however, don’t do it at the expense of my bandwidth. Or, at least have the common sense to ask me beforehand.

If you link to your own personal profile and/or blog, I’m happy to have your link. However, if you link to the main page of a commercial site in a vain attempt to drive up your site traffic, I will ban you and your IP from my blog permanently.

I doubt I get that much site traffic to really make a difference however, I consider it very rude to do so.

Now you know. *g*
