Some Thursday Tidbits
Still adjusting to the new job closer to home. As I was driving home last night, I heard on the radio about how heavy the traffic was on my former route and that it was �just going to be slow going�. I felt some guilt, I suppose, because my friends were stuck in it. I felt some relief, I suppose, because I wasn�t. There was also a little joy that I was getting home at least two hours earlier last night.
I�m glad the war is over and I�m even more glad that Blu Ray won. They�re still a little too pricey (Both the players and the discs) for CrabAppleLane but maybe we can indulge ourselves sometime this year or next.
Still fighting through issues here at the CrabAppleLane Blog. Movable Type Support is trying to help me through it. A comment here returned an �internal server error� message Tuesday morning. I am sick of that message. It was happening on the other server with the older version of Movable Type and it�s happening sometimes with this new, fresh, clean installation and version on a new, more powerful server. The other blogs here are working fine. It�s just this one causing trouble. It must be something I said.

I'm so glad your commute is much better. Traffic sucks. Sorry you're having blog problems, though.
Ironically, I have a brand new DVD & speakers system still in the box in my closet, unopened. Unfortunately I bought it 2 years ago, so I guess returning it is out.
You haven't been on the family blog for a while, I thought maybe you were on vacation or something. What is your new job. I imagine that the commute was a pain, good for you to be home sooner. Now you have 2 more hours for taking cool pictures of your beautiful yard :o) Carol
Thanks, Carol. The new job is essentially the same as the old ... just closer to home. I haven't been bringing my camera to work but I will before too long. As soon as I get everything working the way I want, I'll move everything to the new server and I'll get more active again. I'm down to one, single problem and it has been discouraging that I haven't been able to eliminate it.
To look at it another way, you were one less car that your friends, with the old commute, had to deal with.
So, in a way, you were helping them out. (Though I'm sure they miss you.)
Well, delmer, I think that will be my new perspective. I'm being very considerate, aren't I? :)
