Are You Doing IComWeLeave?

If you are here for IComWeLeave this is my personal blog and I’m not really using it that much. WordGrrls is the blog I am using for IComWeLeave.

This blog is only coming up when I leave a comment on Blogger blogs, when there isn’t an option to sign in with a different URL. When I can I take the extra time to give the WordGrrls link in my comments.

If you are using Blogger check your settings, see if you have enabled commenters to sign in with any link they like, not just the Google login. Thanks!

Dragging a Corpse Around for Fun

I give the impression of a living person quite well. But I’m actually brain dead. I picked up something not very nice from my little nieces when babysitting and helping with the birthday for the 4 year old on the weekend. Now the back of my head is sliding down my neck, or I wish it would so I could get rid of this dragging head ache. Not that I’m whining, much.

I’m having a lot of fun and adventure with the communications here too. Last week I was offline due to a modem being fried. I changed to Rogers. Now I have everything possible hooked up in my bedroom with wires and cables all over the fricking desk and floor space and even running right in front of the TV screen. I don’t think it is right that I am paying $150 a month for this fricking mess. I hate the clutter.

Also, I do not see how the phone line was working before Rogers arrived and by the time they left only one phone jack works in the whole flipping house! Of course it is the phone jack in my bedroom. I started with two power bars which let me have space for the computer and TV and radio to be hooked up here. Extra space was there so I didn’t feel I was sitting in the middle of a fire hazard. Now, it is so plugged up wtih stuff that I had to move my radio and not have it at all. That is just not right. Bloody Rogers.

Now I have to phone and bitch, Bitch I mean – with a capital B. That is not easy for me. I’m nice. I am understanding. I don’t bitch.

So unfair. I have to be up at dawn to see if I can get into a workshop which was already booked up. If someone doesn’t show up I can attend. But I feel dreadful and don’t even want to move my dead brain and body into the shower.

On the bright side… I did get WordGrrls.com pulled together, mostly. I just want to do something else with the blog skin. Need to figure out the code to convert blog skins to the code for b2evolution . Or just customize one of the skins I’ve already found and test driven. I am liking b2e though. I think it is not hugely different from working with Blogger once you get over the different dashboard look.

Must drag my corpse into the shower now.

List of Blog Designers

I’ve been wanting to put something like this together for awhile. Eventually I will move it to Word Grrls I think. But, to get it started it will rest here awhile first. If you are a blog designer, for Blogger, WordPress, Movable Type, Typepad, LiveJournal, etc, leave a comment with your link (to your blog design site).

I not discriminate about listing any blog designer unless the site is choking on ads or the designs really don’t seem to have anything to offer.

Blogger Backup

Found something new for backing up Blogger blogs: Blogger Backup . Will be giving it a try with Word Grrls later today/ tonight. The real challenge will be this blog which has far more content. A heavy duty job for any blog backup software.

I did use Getleft before and it seemed to work well, on this blog. I have not done it in awhile and never had an urgent need to test it. So far. Kind of good to know there is a backup plan though.

Claire Tribute

clairegrrl


Claire is my choice for favourite Entrecard blogger. Just thinking of her gives me at least a little smile. Her boobiliciousness, her firey brain (see the latest doodle on her blog) and of course her blog illustrations. I’m glad to have her involved in Doodle Week. She keeps making it fun. ( Mo too).

See the Entrecard Outage Post for your favourite EC blogger.

Pink for October

pfo_trans

Go Pink for October . Change your blog template to something pink. Too bad no one donated Blogger or WordPress templates for Pink for October. You can do it yourself fairly easily on Blogger. Just go into your “Layout” then “Fonts and Colours” and make a few changes. Even just change your background colour to something pink. That is going pink. Happy Pink and Cheers to Cancer Fighters and Survivors.
Get the Pink Hope Firefox theme.
