Look at these girls. Just look at them!

My mother and my daughter. A source of relief and comfort and a source of fun and pure joy (and occasional breaking of balls.)

Now, look at this girl. Just look at her!

My ridiculously beautiful girlfriend who is just such an awesome, awesome girl, and who never seizes to amaze me.

I am a very lucky man.

This spring I spring into a new and better existence.
This time I spring into life.

That is all.

Indeed. Why does this ordinarily quite burlesque and colorful blog suddenly look like the works of Jacob Nielsen?

If you are new to this blog; move along, but if you’ve come to expect bright colors and swirly shit all over the place, take a while and harken.

I need a project to get back to my former glory, and I need to deliver myself a prompt, swift kick in the rear to get going. The best way to do this is to just publish this new design for the blog while it’s still butt-ugly so that I’ll have an incentive to fix it the fuck up as soon as humanly possible.

If you really miss the old design go visit Kajas blog.

That is all.

This is a shortie. I just want to tell you a couple of things pretty quickly.

1. One microgram is one millionth of a gram.

2. One microgram of certain stuff may make an enormous fucking difference in your brain.

3. Happiness is chemistry.

4. As is unhappiness.

5. This is Kaja.

6. These are some stats.

7. That’s all for now. I’m good. Thanks for asking. I hope you’re doing alright as well.

So, yes. I met someone. Namely the inimitable Kaja. Which is lovely. More to follow.

Update: Bug squashed. So buried deep in the archives there was a comment in which the author had innocently copy/pasted the characters “⌃ ⌥ ⌘” from my post. This was for some reason not sanitized in the SQL, which somehow borked the XMLRPC endpoint to the blog. This in turn meant that tools such as Marsedit, the WP iPhone app and pretty much anything that uses XMLRPC wouldn’t work.

Problematic as that may seem, the worst part is when shit like this fails silently. I pretty much cut the database into bitesize chunks, wiped the entire blog and restored each bit of data manually before I tracked down the perpetrator.

Things are pretty much back to normal now, except for a bit of maintenance work such as restoring categories and plugin settings.

Thanks for waiting.

Original post:
My site is currently experiencing something analogous to a heart-attack after 50 years on a steady McDonalds diet. It’s a crying shame, but with all the garbage that has been put into it it wasn’t really a huge surprise.
What I’m trying to say is that the site is slightly borked, that it’s my fault, and that I’m sorry; but it’s late and I’m too damn tired to fix it right now.

If you actually happen upon this blog in the couple of hours before I can get it repaired, expect a few “stnanks” here and there. I’ll update this post when the waters are safe agai
