Phil801 – Geek Blog

Sometimes there’s just TOO much going on. One would normally decide to cut some things off entirely, but on some occasions, there are too many extremely important and critical things going on.

This is actually about my blog not being able to take comments for 4 days.

I’ve been putting off upgrading my blog to WordPress 2.x for well, since 2.0 came out. I finally did it, very carefully, over the last weekend. I ‘finished’ (read ran out of time) very late er, early Monday morning. Throughout the week I received several emails that comments weren’t working on my blog. But I’ve been totally slammed with back to back meetings from early morning to late at night, leaving me with little spare time. I actually prioritized fixing comments lower than excercising but the other day while I was up on Y mountain, I took out my laptop and started trying to fix the problem. I got frustrated with it and left it, it looked like it should be working but it wouldn’t.

Anyway, tonight I finally got fed up with it and just changed the theme, leaving custom programming behind. Comments are working now. But, the point I was making earlier is that it’s kind of ridiculous when you have so many big projects going on that you can’t justify stopping for a bit to make a simple fix on your blog. Clearly I need to simplify my life, but I’m not sure what to cut out. I’m not dropping excercising or date time with Adria so I don’t know what that leaves open.

Here’s to commenting working again….
