This blog now rolls over to a graphics free version for faster loading on your iPhone, so you can get Random Gemini Weirdness whenever you want it!

Why does this matter? Well, tsykoduk@The Roost has an iPhone, as does my hubby. So for the two readers that I know of that have iPhones, this blog’s just for you!… [Read More]

In the process of doing some puttering around online, my husband decided that he hated my old theme. He talked me into a new one and has convinced me to start working on some more… serious content for the blog.

So… after much mucking about with banner graphics, javascript, php and… also some generalized hacking of the theme… here we are!… [Read More]

New theme and etc.

Hi folks! I just wanted to welcome the new commenters this evening, hajimemashite!

Also I’d like to draw everyone’s attention to the sidebar and this article titled “Commenters Read This First!. Maybe it’s silly to post guidelines for commenting, but I did have one comment come in today that I had to delete because it was offensive. Let’s all be nice to each other and have a good time!… [Read More]

A Note on Commenting…

I’m testing out some new themes. Apologies for all the construction dust. I’m digging this one called vistered little and am currently customizing the wallpapers to fit in with my blog a bit better. There are plans to fully integrate my website into my wordpress blog, which would be very nice because then I could actually allow comments on my poetry and short fiction!

Anyway, please pardon the mess and safe and happy surfing!… [Read More]

Please excuse the construction dust…

So.. I have all these categories, and I’ve never bothered to tell anyone what they are for, so.. here goes:

Administrator’s Notes: This category will contain any site announcements regarding upgrades, changes or scheduled down time should I become aware of any such events, or be responsible for them.

News from the Random: It’s all about me. That’s right. This is my blog, you came here to read about me, right? Well.. okay maybe not. But if you don’t want to read about me and the random crap that I think about, go check out another category.

Oooh Shiny!: This one should be obvious, but if it’s not.. I am a gadget nut. News about technology, gadgets and things that just scream “Sparkly!” go here. I am a gemini after all, and we are required to get distracted by all things pretty and glowing.

Rants: Not so pretty and glowing. The rants are about things that irk me, annoy me and generally tick me off.… [Read More]

A Note on Categories.

It has finally become time to relocate the blog. I’ve been toying with the idea of hosting it on my own webspace for some time, but I never got around to it until I got fed up with having to turn on image verification to keep the comment spammers out of my comments on blogspot. Nothing against blogspot, I had my account there for two years, and will maintain it for archival purposes, but I intend to shut down the comment system, and run my blog here as a part of my website.

Yes, I require that if you choose to comment here, that you have an account on my comment system, which is maintained here on my servers by me. For my blogging software, I’ve chosen to go with WordPress. Tsykoduk uses it, and I have to say, I can see why. It’s a very nice suite. All the functionality of blogger, and then some, with some simple image editing, you can take the templates and make something unique and wholly your own, and talk about ease of administration, it even has it’s own little “Livejournal-esque”
client!… [Read More]
