Hey look! I’ve got a blog!
Again!
(ahem..)
You know that old story about the shoemaker’s family having no shoes? Well, my husband is a computer guy. Who wanted to host my blog on our own server. So… yea… No blog.
I mean, I had a blog. Entries, pictures, heartfelt missives… Then I stopped having stuff to write about. Well, that’s not exactly true. PLENTY to write about. Let’s just say I got sidetracked with IRL stuff and stopped blogging very much. And I was coming up on my 100th post. Which meant I had to write the 100 Things About Myself post. Because of bloggy tradition and all… So I was kind of stuck on pre-writing that. Then there was the IRL stuff that pulled me away. Lots of fun. Some frustration, but no real drama. Just life.
So along the way somehow there was some sort of computer thingy where our server that hosted my blog stopped working right and it got put on the back burner by my husband because I wasn’t actively blogging. In his defense, he does work his booty off at work. Like the shoemaker’s wife, I hate to ask him to have to do even more work when he gets home.. I was assuming that my blog still existed if you happened to stumble upon it, but it didn’t. So if you found my recipes for gluten free graham crackers or gluten free goldfish crackers when I posted them a year or so ago, I really thought you could still access it. Sorry bout that…
When I told my husband that we needed to get those posts back he made one of those noncommital noises that only computer guys can make. If you’ve got a computer guy for a husband, you know the noise I’m talking about. Kind of a verbal shrug if you will. Better yet… I’ve realized over the years that computer guys are kind of like mechanics or carpenters. So in those terms, basically my husband took off his baseball hat and scratched his head. Then he looked at the sun, put his hat back on and wiped the back of his neck with his bandana.
As you can see, it’s a serious situation. But I think he might be able to get the parts in by next week.
Where I was going with this originally is that my husband also realized that rather than hosting my blog on our own server, he should cough up the dough and have my blog hosted by one of those website hosting places. So he got that all set up for me. To the tune of 80 DOLLARS A MONTH. Holy crap Batman! No pressure or anything! Geez…!
I feel like I should tapdance or something. I’ve got to earn my keep now. Ya ta da ta da ta… Shuffle ball change… Flap ball change…
