I was reading up on the Technorati Ranking system this morning when I came across this interesting post and its accompaniment over at docsaab. And it got me thinking, why do we blog?

Is there a particular method to coming back from the dead? I like to think not. First, it’s a fantastical occurrence (doesn’t happen… often…), and thing like that don’t really have methods. And second, when I wake up from a bad dream, as I would venture to assume death seams, I sit square up in my bed ready for action… I don’t just lay there in a lazy stupor, like I do most mornings…
This in mind, I suppose running right back in to blogging after over a months hiatus is similar to hastily frying up some eggs at 2am after waking with a start from a truly terrifying dream… Or something like that…
I’m game… I’m back from the dead… I just want readers.
In a similar vein, it seems as though winter has risen from the ashes as well. I woke this morning to find just about a foot of snow covering everything. Not something I like to see five days in to April, or in April at all for that matter. What the hell is going on? And I hear rumors of more on the way… Not a happy camper.
So I took pictures… 
On another note, more of my posters got approved during the Student Government Social Committee meeting this afternoon. Now Pam has no excuse to not use them.
Also, come to find out, she doesn’t really like anybody, and nobody really likes her.
Glad to hear I’m not the only one…
So, one bit of fallout of getting the new MacBook Pro is that I am actually organizing my life a bit with iCal. I did this back at Susquehanna University, and it seemed to help, so I am trying it. I don’t suppose you could call this a bad thing in and of its self, but I (and your going to get lost here) just got this new plug-in for Apple Aperture, and the author’s site got me back into thinking about customizing my blog a bit.
Confused yet?
So I set out to set up Event Calendar 3 (a plug-in for WordPress), and that is where the trouble began.
Long story short, Event Calendar 3 and K2 (the template I am using) do not get along, and practically destroyed my WordPress install. But I prevailed, and with a little wizardry, I got thing working again.
This is all, goodnight.
Mulligan: 1
WordPress: zip
Thats right, after a whole hell-of-a-lot of tweaking, I finaly got the Gallery to work the way I want it to. Should be interesting. I’ll start populating the albums here after classes. There are so many pictures I want to put up, and FaceBook an MySpace are heaping peices of turd.
Ok, off to General Psyh.
So, I’ve been messing around with WordPress for the past 12 hours straight. Fun fun fun. I like the little layout I’ve got going. It needs a bit more tweaking; there are some sidebar elements I want to get in there, a few CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) changes that need to be made, the usual. But thus far… Pleased. With the layout at least… Then I got the great idea to throw Gallery2 into the mix, and WPG2… Thats when things got interesting…
Lets try this out.
There is only one album right now. If you are familiar with Gallery, clicking on the album image brings you to the… oh wait, we have to select an album again… shoot… So lets select an album we want to go into again… ok, so now we can select an ima… crap, what, do we have to do? Confirm again? Never mind, lets just select a random image from the side, that should work. Ok, so we got one… WHAT THE HECK!? Album page AGAIN!?
I think you get the point…
Hopefully there will be some peeps from the WPG2 forums heading this way to give it a looksee… I’d really like to get it working and integrated, that would be swell.
EDIT: Things have now since been fixed, move along, there’s nothing to see here…
