Just tell me to stop it.

I've been driving myself nuts with all the fussing and fucking up  fixing I've been doing to this here blog this week.

Once I got everything back up and working and my sidebar items mostly all reloaded correctly (I know I still have to put up links.) I decided I didn't like that brown theme. So I went looking for a replacement. I like this one. It is bright and funky. I still want to get rid of that "marten timan" at the top and try to figure out why My Eclectic Mess doesn't show up somewhere. ButI'm chicken shit to start messing with the .php again for fear I'll lose my cookies, mind, blog again.

I also found another theme I liked (Melissa-20) but when I ran it I noticed that my Pages links didn't show up anywhere and again, didn't want to mess around and try to fix that so I went back to this one.

Then I decided to finally enable and load my flickr account and put my pics there instead of using imageshack or directly uploading them to my site. Flickr has some nifty stuff and I figured since I use Yahoo webhosting and Wordpress getting everything to work together would be easy peasy, NOT! I'm now referring to it as fluckr. It won't let me set up my blog for photo posting directly from fluckr. I've read every FAQ, and help forum thread related to the problem. Seems like I'm one of millions that have this problem but no one seems to have the solution that will work for me. I also activated the Falbum plugin with this theme and thought I did everything right, but it doesn't work either and I again read every support item I could find, followed all the directions (for such a popular plugin the support sucks!), and still nothing. It is supposed to be the Gallery Page linked up top. I give up. If you want to see my pics, click on the the little flickr badge in my sidebar. So far that is all I've managed to get to work.

After spending intermitable hours working on all this bullshit, I realized I hadn't made any substantial posts. So I decided that I needed to just knock it off and post some pics of my FO and other stuff. So watch this space for more and more of the inane postings I'm so infamous for and I've been storing in the dark recesses of my dirty mind for weeks now.
