A while ago I wrote about how I was mucking around with MAMP so I could run an install of Wordpress locally. It has been a godsend for tinkering with my new site. I’ve been poking around with it for about two months now - usually until I begin to pass out at around the witching hour of 10.30pm (y-a-w-n).
The template I decided on, after much trawling, is the Upstart Blogger Modicus by Robert Ellis. It is v.cool - but of course, tweaking around with the css, and various WordPress plugins, archive formatting and general layout is agony. I have to learn as I go. M wasn’t convinced that the redesign was a good idea, but now he likes the look. The other great thing about the theme is the support that Robert Ellis provides in the comments on the aforementioned site - he is patient with nuff nuff’s like myself.
So the point of all this seemingly pointless information? I am actually alive, but have been becoming so preoccupied with my shiny new layout, that I’ve been neglecting my online workhorse.
And… btw, real live prunes (six each morning) as well as hot water with lemon juice, porridge and walks around the paddock? They’re working. And I’m a much nicer person ![]()
