There are still a few kinks to work out, but I’ve finally ported the site to [WordPress]. If you’re not sure what that is, don’t worry about it. All it means is I should start posting more often now (and replying to some comments that have been waiting for answers far too long).

At the moment, however, I’m very tired, so all this will have to wait until morning.

…being married is great. 😀

Well, smack me up the side of my head with a rubber tuna fish. Jordan over at swirlee.org has found what I think may be “the best way to keep track of a wish list”:http://www.swirlee.org/2005/01/06/a-delicious-wish-list/ using [del.icio.us]. It’s so devilishly simple I’m not sure why hundreds of people haven’t done it before.

After ranting about the inadequacies of both Amazon and Froogle, Jordan has this to say:

bq.. Having recently fallen in love with, and having rapidly become entirely dependent upon, del.icio.us, I believe it may be the solution.

The proof-of-concept is easy: when you find an item, click on your del.icio.us bookmarklet, add the “wishlist� tag, and that’s it, you’ve got a wishlist.

p. I think I’ll start doing this right away.

Incidentally, Jordan recently redesigned his site. I’m a little flattered because he seems to have copied my idea of using similar words for sidebar titles. I, of course, use verbs that have been changed into nouns with the “-ation” ending; Jordan is using adverbs. Maybe he didn’t realize he was copying me at all, but if he was I can only say that imitation is the best form of flattery. He’s also added a del.icio.us link list using the same method I use, though he seems to have actually made it work (imagine that!). Kudos on your redesign, Jordan.

Ever since I installed MagpieRSS on my server (it powers my [del.icio.us] sidebar links), the site loads a lot slower. I’m pretty sure it’s happening because Magpie’s caching isn’t enabled. I’d like to have caching anyway to prevent my site from overloading del.icio.us—not that it would with my piddly traffic, but it seems incredibly impolite to ping someone else’s server every time my site loads.

I’ve gone through the readme files and tried the steps outlined for setting up caching, but it doesn’t seem to be working correctly. If anyone knows anything (or can figure anything out) about MagpieRSS, please let me know. Thanks.

I’m writing this post early in the morning on December 31, 2004. If I’ve set the timestamp correctly, it shouldn’t appear on the site until just as I’m saying “I do.” I’m quite positive, though at this moment I can only imagine, that I’ll be having the best day of my life.

Janene, I’m so glad we’ve come to this wonderful point in our lives and in our relationship. I’ve had so much fun being your sweetheart for the last three and a half years. It’s hard to imagine things going up from here, but I have no doubt they will. We’ve only scratched the surface of what lies ahead. I’m so excited to experience my life together with you.

Congratulations Mrs. Day. No offense to any of my relatives, but you’re the most beautiful Day I’ve ever known. Welcome to the family. I love you!
