I’m back

After an outage, it’s a relief when a system returns as before. If a piece of gear works it’s taken for granted; few praise the magic box that is technology. And the magic box always purrs, right? Of course it does, Virginia. What functioned perfectly yesterday, last week, and last month, no longer does. There must be gremlins loose, hopped up on glue.

But, when something mission critical malfunctions it’s like inheriting a car with a busted radio. Eventually one adapts to a stereo free experience, yet the silence never feels right.

In any case, I’m glad things are sorted out and running smooth.

Off to work, write, work and then errands.

Lots of books

And boy, are the boxes all over the place. Much listing awaits me Wednesday.

Implemented a workaround for the word count meter ( I’m not proud of the kludge, but it works ) and disabled the polls temporarily because of a spastic issue with incorrect tallies. Have faith, the polls will return once a proper fix is in place.

I should have enough focus for a proper blog entry tomorrow.

Technical Difficulties

Ever feel like the Internet is toying with you?

At the present time, I cannot:
1) Send/receive/access email at the domain
2) Access most the site management tools

On the plus side, the site is working and available. However, I’m not sure how comments will function in practice, or whether notifications about them will work. When this will function again, I also have no idea. An investigation is under way.
