Reef Tank: January 2009 Archives

I went through an hour of frustration yesterday while I tried to, once again, fix the stupid problem with comments. It actually works in a sense - just not the way I wish it would, and there may be no way around that. As long as people comment with the same username and e-mail address every time, it usually won't get spammed. My frustration stems mostly from when people want to change the e-mail address they use - once you're registered with a particular e-mail address, there seems to be no way to change that. I've even tried outright deleting users, but they somehow stay in the system. It's annoying as hell. Plus there are other a few other problems that I just haven't worked out and haven't had the time to. Sigh.

This week seemed to breeze by pretty quickly, which is always nice. We've got a few things to take care of around the house, so I'm looking forward to having the time on the weekend.

I'm trying to get back in the habit of blogging daily, or semi-daily, even when I don't have anything interesting to say. This could be interpreted as a Good Thing or a Bad Thing. This is certainly not a promise, however, as we've seen how good I am at sticking to goals.

I almost can't muster up the energy to write, because I'm so tired. Marc came down with some sort of nasty stomach bug last night, and ended up spending most of the night running to the toilet. When he was actually in bed, he was fidgeting and moaning. I felt bad, but at around 3:30 am I finally had to go and sleep downstairs on the couch just so I could get some rest. Needless to say, waking up at 6 wasn't easy. Marc, obviously, stayed home from work today. I think the vomiting has subsided a bit, but it sounds like he's pretty weak from the ordeal.
