Site Update
Feb 6th, 2009 by Babs

<div class=\"pavatar\">Site Update</div>

Today’s post is being brought to you by the following search terms: babs,  babs sex,  megas xlr free torrent complete series,  emile hirsch,  collage babs.

Just a quickie to let everyone know that the chili recipe I used for the Super Bowl is now up at “Babs Get’s Cooking”. It came out really yummy. In fact Ben enjoyed it so much I was only able to get one bowl of it before he devoured it all. Damn teenagers!

I also wanted to pass along a tidbit of info to my fellow WordPress users: Avoid the “Multiple Category Selection Widget.” And if you have it, don’t upgrade to 1.0.  I had planned on using this widget for the recipe site — had even installed and activated it — however I never quite got around to actually placing the widget in the site’s sidebar. Even so, a recent update of the widget still resulted in it interfering with the links on the site. Every link would take me to the most recent post. 😛 As soon as I deativated it everything worked fine again. The same thing is happening over at The Pinkish Pages, where I do have it in use. *sighs* I guess I have some work to do.

ETA: I’ve just been informed that if you go to the widget’s page at WordPress and click the link for “Other Versions” you can download 1.1, which fixes the issue.

Weekly Weigh In (and Other Drama)
Feb 3rd, 2009 by Babs

Today’s post is being brought to you by the following search terms: babs,  babs sex,  sex babs,  drum corps torrents,  chris young torrents.

One of these days I’m going actually do this weekly AND on Monday. *laughs*

I’ve gained another pound. 😛 So yesterday I announced to the household that I would no longer put my exercise routine second to anyone else’s plans. This totally pissed off Glenn. He took off both yesterday and today, with a long list of things to do. Yesterday he said he was going to run an errand, before we ran out to pick up some things, and I could use the living room to workout while he was gone (how gracious of him *rolls eyes*). Then he left — without a word and with the TV still on so I thought he was coming right back. After about half an hour I realize he’d gone to do whatever he was going to do, so I proceeded with my workout. Shortly thereafter he returns with “You’re not done, yet?” Come to find out he hadn’t run the errand, but was helping a neighbor move into her new apartment, instead. I tell him I have about another half an hour to go, so he leaves again. This time for an hour. Still helping the neighbor. Now, on top of this, he wanted to shave his head before we left, which he could’ve done while I was exercising. But he didn’t. Yet somehow I’m the one wasting his time.

Today was more of the same. “We need to get out and do things before the weather gets bad,” he says. As this was early in the morning and the worst of the weather wasn’t due untill this afternoon, I wasn’t in any hurry. In fact I quoted his favorite mantra, “I’m not killing myself for anyone.” His response: “Fine! We just won’t do anything, then.”

Fine. At least I know I have three less obstacles to achieving my fitness goal.

Stuff

<div class=\"pavatar\">Stuff</div>

I had planned on getting at least one new fic uploaded to the Pinkish Pages today. Then I discovered the site was broken. At some point, between the last addition and now, a Starscape theme upgrade made several of my widgets produce errors. I’m sure the theme’s designer will say that the problem is with the widgets because his code is flawless (he boasts this in his read me.txt files), but after testing the widgets out with a new theme, at the still under heavy construction Lavender Room, everything worked fine. He is also responsible for the original rating system I was using on the site. One which I had to tweak, one way or another, each time he updated it. Needless to say both have been replaced. The new theme is a flexible/variable width one, so I don’t have to really worry about line length. Visitors can just reduce the size of the window (and zoom in, if necessary) for optimum ease in reading. It was also created by someone who knows just about as much about style sheets as I do (which is just enough to get by), so it was fairly easy to change the color scheme. My only concern is those who still surf using the dreaded IE. You get a runtime error on every page if you view it in that browser. Luckily, most of my friends have the smarts to be using something else. Right?

Glenn is sitting on his ass, watching the Super Bowl. I had planned on recording it — if only to watch the commercials — but then remembered what happened I when I did this last year. For three months Glenn watched the stupid thing every night. He’d probably still be watching it if it hadn’t accidentally been deleted. Anyways, I figure they always have them available for viewing online and I’m sure someone on my f-list will be nice enough to share the link to the site, if I don’t find it first. I made chili for the event. It wasn’t the traditional vegetarian crock pot recipe that I always forget to write down. Everyone and their mother seems to have wanted the book it comes from as all five library copies were on hold. I managed to find a veggie-ful recipe in another crock pot book. It contains meat, including bacon, and takes forever to cook, but it came out yummy! I’ll see if I can get it uploaded to my cook book this week.

I’m now off to confiscate the bottle of vodka Glenn thinks he is hiding from me. I just need some Diet Dew.
