A Twist of Things to Come

I'm very happy to have carved out some time from my website obsession to mostly finish another episode of HMOWK. It's getting near the end, and I have to make sure I concentrate to get it right, because if I blow it now, it is well and truly blown. ;) I'll tweak a bit more before it goes to beta, but I'm feeling pretty good about it. It's kind of harsh and emotional in places-- not something that's easyto write when the floor is flooded and I'm obsessing over the website, but I managed.

Speaking of the website, I was thrilled to post deadcatvagrant's hilarious review of Dead Rising: Chop Til You Drop! (for the Wii). I'm not much of a gamer, but it had me giggling like mad. Zombie parrots? REALLY?

Plus, I just a got a new one from jedi_diplomat that compares operating systems to frozen desserts. It's awesome! I'm still working on learning stuff about being a webmistress, but Jax continually inspires me to be less afraid, and just go after it.

Today I learned that sometimes some of Joomla's control options are not shown to me when I visit the admin side in Firefox. (I'm sure it has something to do with my settings.) In order to follow my step-by-step instructions on how to publish poll results, I had to switch to IE before I could get it done. But I did it! The closed Poll results are available, and a new poll is up! Woot!

*shrug* Gotta take your victories where you can get them! ;)

In any case, I think I'm getting to a place where I can more successfully juggle the webmistress stuff, the writing, the site-building AND still generate some original video content. As well as the mom/wife stuff. LOL!

Wish me luck.
