I just found a bunch of comments in my system that, for some reason, Typepad failed to notify me about.  My apologies to those commentors who have probably spent the last couple of weeks thinking that I was ignoring them when, in fact, I have not.  Hopefully from now on it will notify me. 

For some reason I cannot get my URL to work without the www.  It kills me to lose the readers who were used to finding me simply at snarke.net instead of www.snarke.net and I hope that they will realize the change soon.  The Typepad instructions said to set up domain masking but now all it does is send people to a page that says "this webpage is temporarily unavailable, try again later."  Arg.

I've set up my "professional" site via this typepad account and have been having some troubles getting it to work the way I want it to.  I have the domain forwarded and everything while Typepad figures out why that site isn't showing up for domain mapping.  That? Is kind of taking a while.

I realized that Typepad does not convert line breaks when it imports blogs, so if you try to read my archives it'll make you feel….um….there is an author who once wrote a sentence that was a page and a half long (and grammatically correct!).  I can't remember who it was, but I bet reading my archives will feel a little bit like that.

Also? Our friends have arrived and are now on their way to see their concert.  I like spending time with our friends but I can't help but feel a little irritated and put out and used.  We noticed today that whenever they want to ask us a favor they'll send the message to Will (who has trouble saying no).  When they want to ask us to do stuff together, they send the message to me.  Funny, I always thought that when it came time to raise teenagers they would have been birthed from my own womb. 

Today the seventh season of Scrubs is on sale at Best Buy for twenty bucks!  This has nothing to do with anything else I've written but I wanted to end this post on a positive note.
