It was the same old url-forwarding frame problem. Now all is well. Comment away!!

Comments on the site are not working since I switched servers. Working on it now.
I’ve updated my links page. It will continue to change a little bit. Not very exciting.
Here are some 2 year anniversary questions:
1. WordPress has a nifty feature that asks you to put in a password if you want to see certain restricted blog posts. As the job search progresses, I want to share some of the pieces I’ve worked so hard on with people other than the twelve people who will decide that I Am Not The One. But obviously I am not about to post this world-readably. How would some of you feel about going through the trouble to sign up for a mailing list to get passwords to sensitive entries? I know, I know, it seems INCREDIBLY self-important, but its either that or y’all will be getting two paragraph “I’m really too busy to write” entries for the next three months. You have to promise not to share the password.
2. Please respond to the following characters with either A) Angel of Light or B) Angel of Darkness: Cinnamon, Kathy, Bjork, Lessig (Lawrence), Sammy Davis Jr., Lessig (Willem).
3. Do you think a smaller font size would make this blog read better? Different font or line-spacing?
4. How do you think it’s going?
Let me know,

The blog is two years old today. This time last year it was a much bigger deal for me – I was excited and proud that I had managed to keep the thing going for three hundred and sixty five days. Today, however, the blog seems as much a part of my life as drinking coffee or not doing my laundry. Today it seems so much a normal part of my routine that knocking back another twelve months seems almost pedestrian. My shifts of attention and focus both within and without the blog no longer seem like dealbreakers, and my online presence seems has settled into an happy coexistence with my increasingly active career writing in real life. And so it turns out there’s not much to do, really, except to keep writing and thank you all for reading. Thanks – it’s been great.
I continue to putter. The permalinks are now gendered correctly. Old MT archives are now available, so you can read Leuschke.org fan fic to your heart’s content. Just click the archive link at the top of the page. Also, Golublog patrons actively interested in having fan fiction written about them can now view my amazon wishlist by clicking on the line about the title of the blog where it used to say ‘it doesn’t just look good on lynx – it looks like lynx‘ and where it now says ‘if you buy me things I will write fan fiction about you‘. I figured I’d cut to the chase. Any of the items on this list will make a much better present than soap or pictures of my face on cereal boxes. Not that I dislike soap or pictures. I just like hottie coloraturas better. Although please send only audio recordings – I’m currently all booked up in the flesh-and-blood hottie coloratura department.
Just a quick note for those who may have missed it – you can get to the permalink for a blog entry by clicking on its title. You can veiw all of the entries in the same category by clicking on the subject of the blog entry (this appears just under the date). I considered this an extremely elegant way to set up the website – unfortunately, it left no affordances for users to move through the site. Elegance over affordances – that’s me in a nutshell. I’ve also added a more mundane ‘permalink’ entry at the end of each entry. Also the blogroll link is back, and will soon be followed by RSS and archive info. Sorry it took so long to get around to this. Also, I’ve finally gotten around to adding analog to the site so beware – you’re being watched.

I think I’m back up and stabilized. Finally. Blech. What an unpleasant upgrade.
Ok. Naptime.
Well right after I got everything as I liked WP .72 was released – like literally the next day. Guess how the upgrade went? Grrrr……
