Columbus and Comments
It took every ounce of my self-motivation skills to get out and go running last night, but I did. I thought about driving straight home, but I forced my car to Gilruth. After the run, I was glad I did it. It's been a good week; I've hit the pavement four times: 10K last Saturday, 3 miler on Monday, 30-minute tempo run on Tuesday, 3-miler last night. Small runs, and I want to ramp up at least one of my weekday runs to 5-6 miles. But it's a start. On tap for this weekend is a 9-miler, and next weekend is the USA 10-Miler. Some days I think I might actually be able to pull off doing this marathon thing again.
Some people have told me they have had trouble commenting since I upgraded and switched to a default Movable Type template. Maybe that's why I've had so few comments (or maybe I'm just boring). Once you click "Comments" at the top of each entry, there should be a "Comment anonymously" link at the bottom of the resulting page. Try that. Overall, I'm not loving the new Movable Type. This is partially because I haven't taken the time to really explore it, and I know that they have added a lot of functionality. But at the same time, I'm not sure I need that functionality. And it runs slooowly. Pages take too long to load -- maybe not for you the viewer, but for me the blogger, when I'm dealing with the backend. I played around with Wordpress a few months ago; I may be switching this weekend. If you experience blog-weirdness, that'll probably be the cause.
It's a three-day weekend for us government folk. Thank you Christopher Columbus. I plan to spend it doing nothing but fun activities, because the next two weeks leading to the STS-120 launch are gonna be nothing but busy.
Hey Sarah,
I had trouble the first time; here's what I ended up doing. I click on "comment anonymously" since I don't have an MT account.
Then I put in my name. Then...the important part...I have to put in my email address or it won't work.
Is there a way for you to hack that portion so it says something like "required, not posted" or some such comment in parentheses behind the part that asks for your email? It's almost as if filling in name and email is optional (since it's anonymous...but not really anonymous...).
Does that make sense? I think, if I remember correctly, that Jamoosh also uses Moveable Type which is how I knew what to do on yours...
A 3 day weekend? I'm jealous! BTW, I am catching up on my blog reading...I missed the space station! Grrr...
Gee, didn't want to break this to you but it's true, you are indeed boring.
KIDDING!!! Truth is, you should be a TV series. I'd watch :-)
woot, i can comment now :)
