After just over a year's absence I'm more or less here again.  I removed and re-added plugins until finding the half-dozen or so that no longer wanted to play nice, and now I can see the "Add New Post" dialog, you don't see a 501 server error, and (hot damn) pushing the "publish" button does not result in an error. This is also a shiny new upgrade to WP 2.8.

There are a few smallish things that are missing or a little bit broken, but, for the most part, it's all here.

One of the really nice finds was that most of the 80-something comments that had stacked up back here were both positive and not spam - very, very cool. Thank you.

And, there are scads of drafted post ideas in there that are still pretty interesting. Yes, this blog already has a garden with working compost heap.

Are you with me? I feel like I'm waving at the house where I lived last year.

It's good to get this site functioning again.

What's Next?

Search me if I know!

  • I want a personal soapbox - got opinions, as usual. We live in a fascinating time. Are you up for some editorializing?
  • I need to fix a few things about this site. It needs an updated logo and "About" page, at least, and some replacement plugins, and htaccess will need attention.
  • I'm beginning to feel the need for a place to put creative writing - actual poetry and fiction. I haven't decided if I'll start that incognito until I get used to the idea, or if it will be a pen name thing for the duration.
  • I want to redesign QuoteSnack, to make it easier to expand and add services - been having a ball there, and on Twitter.
  • I may split the AbleReach WordPress stuff off onto a site of its own, or the non-techie topics may be better off with their own home, or this could be all-in-one moi.
  • And there are a couple other projects I've wanted to start. A couple? A few? Hell, I may need to admit I'm up to however many "fews" it takes to make a "lot."

So much to learn, so much to do. How's a gal to choose?

    Welcome back.

    I knew that if I waited long enough my feedreader would ‘beep’ that Miss Able was back within Reach. :)

    People are so scattered now, here a Twitter thought, there a Stumbled interest, a sudden Plurk comment, etc. An actual blog seems so old hat and together for contempory SM. Actual paragraphs and everything.

    If all else fails you could let the cat publish comments on your (mis)behaviour… :D
