overenthusiastic

well, that was unexpected. i had a few extra comments pop up in the "recent comments" section and thought, hey, cool. and then i looked a little closer, and realized that they were from last september, when i was using haloscan before the switch to blogger beta. i guess it's nice that they still have a record of my comments, but this definitely seemed like overkill to me.

site maintenance

as you may notice, i finally switched back to haloscan for my comment system... this way there won't need to be any more anonymous comments from people who don't use blogger/google accounts. this means that i lost existing comments (again), but there weren't enough of those that i'll be mourning the loss. hopefully blogger doesn't go through any major maintenance that would require me to switch again.

boo!

so, it turns out my skills are still not quite up to the task of getting haloscan set back up. they've got a new auto-install function for it, but apparently that doesn't recognize the beta version of blogger i'm using now. so if anyone has some spare time on their hands and knows more about .xml than me (which, lets face it, doesn't take a whole lot), let me know and i can send you a copy of my template and what needs to go into it.

i'll try to save the comments this time, so feel free to begin again.
