not exactly defeated…

I haven’t exactly declared defeat, but I have declared redesign, after spending a bunch of time futzing with embedding LJ and not having it react the way I wanted. (Deborah, when I said, “Fine, I’m REDESIGNING,” said, “Inevitably. How’s your hair?” *laugh* These people, they know me too well.) Anyway, I’ve tested the design on all four browsers I have and it works, so if you have problems, shift-reload. I have things to post about. Adventures At The Movies, and … other stuff. But instead of doing that, I’m going…

on converting to lj

After far, far more trouble than it was worth, I learned how to embed my LJ into mizkit.com. I am now attempting (for some value of now) to make it a seamless integration. None of this is happening on the front page, and for the moment I’m still using MT. If I do a switch, I’ll, I don’t know, announce 24 hours in advance that I’m going to, so people can sign off the mizkit_feed if they’ve got LJ accounts and can just get the updates through friending mizkit. In…

we have net. :)

We, indeed, have net! We’ve had net since about 2pm, and the entire family has been in the computer room All Day Long. My personal accomplishment for the day was launching kitsnaps.com, a photo blog site I’ve been talking about doing for years. Well, I got an extremely spiffy camera for Christmas, and I’m going to make a go of doing photography regularly. I’m hoping to post about three pictures a week (though I posted a bunch at once today, so it wouldn’t be hanging around with no content at…

we have NET

(feb 3, 8:32am): I said, on my way to bed last night, “I have to go to bed now, so I can get up and write 4500 words before the internet comes.” Apparently I sounded much more pathetic than I’d intended to, because Ted and Shaun both *roared* with laughter. *laugh* We are going to be a very sad household (*vewy* disappointed, as Breic said when *they* didn’t get the internet) if our DSL connection doesn’t get turned on today. We did get the wireless modem they promised to send…

cute boys :)

(written feb 2, 8:24 am): The pancake fairy came this morning, so I have less time to dink around and write a journal entry than usual. I mostly just wanted to recount a story Deirdre told about Breic. :) The other day he was eating some cereal, and suddenly said, “Damn, that’s good!” Then he got very big eyes and said, “I said damn! I said damn, ’cause, damn, that’s good!” Gavin said Deirdre nearly ruptured something, trying not to laugh. :) :) :) To work. :) (five minutes later):…
