So at work (display crew at Blvd Home Furnishings), I get 2-3 great ideas about what I should throw on this here blog later in the day. Now, due to numerous face plants while wakeboarding, including a couple minor concussions, I seem to have a weak short term memory. By the time I get home, the ol’ brain winds down and doesn’t recall what it was thinking earlier on in the day.
I’ve know of people jotting down little notes to trigger their memories later on that day. Perhaps I will try that out. Not that anything I have to say is all that important, but it would help me to update this site more regularly, which is something I’d like to do.
This is about the most exciting post ever, so I’ll throw in a couple cool links:
1 - What a Honda feels like (Commercial).
2 - You just got owned. You can throw any name (one or two names, a period for each name) in front of the justgotowned.com part, pretty swell stuff.

So, this site is obviously not on Drupal anymore. I switched to Wordpress 2.0. I figured that Drupal was a bit much for how I’m using this site. This has turned out to be a not-so-regularly-updated blog, and Drupal is much more powerful than I needed. Themes were another issue. To create a theme in Wordpress, you simply need to know some CSS and HTML; Drupal requires a bit more programming knowledge, and while I could learn to work with it, I am far too lazy to do so.
Soon I hope to have a neat little design on this site and some more regular posts. We’ll see.
I just spent over two hours manually transferring all of my content to Wordpress from Drupal. As soon as I finished, I went to the home page, and everything is set to the default Wordpress installation. My head is about to explode right now. I believe what happened is that I clicked the back button within another Firefox tab where I had installed Wordpress through Fantastico (I only use it because I’m getting free hosting and damn it all, I can’t make new databases outside of Fantastico).
So, I’m going to stop for the day. Tomorrow should see most of the content back up. I’m rather upset right now.
