My life has reached a crisis state. I’ve been trying to hide it but there’s no use any more; things have simply escalated to a point I can no longer deal with. Even if that means ending a sentence with a preposition.
I need a new blogentity.
It all started a couple of weeks ago when I looked at one of my stupid Pages over there in the sidebar and said, “Fuck! Who was that bitter angry woman who wrote all that shit anyway?” and I stomped around angry for an entire day wondering who it was that broke into my blog and wrote all that stuff. Then I realized that person had been me, and I was no longer that person.
Fine. Change the stupid Pages then.
Right. Not. Because my stupid fucking blog is BROKEN and I can’t FIX IT. Yes, I have Googled “wordpress can’t edit pages delete posts” and I’ve come up with some threads where people tentatively say stuff like “you have to query your wp_options table”, a phrase which causes my brain to instantly snap shut as it requires digging into my database, and I don’t think my blog and I know each other well enough yet for that kind of unalterable intimacy.
I have upgraded to WP 2.5 and that did no good. Right now the message (in red, no less) “YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO DO THAT” is staring at me unblinkingly, taunting me. I never even asked WP 2.5 for anything! We only just met! And already it is telling me NONONO to questions I have not yet asked.
Also I want a new theme. Fine. Because I found my blog twin, and I am still stumbling about stuttering a little at seeing my very unique (but free! downloadable by anyone!) theme I never bothered to customize in use by someone else. Someone else quite like me in many ways, which is totally cool. But still. A little weird.
So I’m getting out. Making changes. This is no longer the ALL of me I want to present.
But the stupid fucking Pages. Will follow me.
So I need help.
Help? Anyone?

Wow kind of freaking. I thought it was like a 2nd identity and my mind was playing tricks on me!

Ooooo, that was creepy! I clicked on your ‘blog twin’ and actually jumped back from the screen. (I know, creepy!) I always thought your background was totally unique!
Oh, and apparently I like to use exclamation points today.

I know, weird, eh? I know its not a unique theme but I had sort of let myself think it was, or think no one else would use it. I think it’s cool that our interests are similar.
But I need to make some changes around here.

Hi!
I sort of like that we’re blog twins! I mean, two great minds, double the extraordinary content…
Anyway,
I sure hope what ever’s broken gets fixed expediently!!!

WOW, that was weird.
I wish I knew something that would help but it would sound like this “Where’s the wine bottle, somebody took my glass, why are you out of your diaper, don’t bite your sister” and so on and so forth…
This is tongue in cheek but can’t you just channel some dead computer geek to help? I mean really! What good is channeling if you can’t get the help when you really need it?
Muah!
