Exquisite Turmoil

I hate Wordpress.

Category: General

I mean, I know that it is a useful program and makes blogging easy for idiots like me. Well, easy for idiots like me if we never have to “update” or want to change themes, add functionality, etc. Thankfully idiots like me occasionally have intelligent husbands who can take care of these things for us.

Now, not to brag but — my husband is one of the smartest husbands in the world, I am quite sure. So when he has to spend a few hours trying to make something work it says to me that something is wrong. Yes, my blog is now working again. Yes, this stupid gallery program is installed. It doesn’t, however, appear to do anything other than put a new bar in my administration page that uh.. changes absolutely nothing no matter which options I check / uncheck / select / whatever possible thing there is to do to them.

And I HATE this stupid upgrade. All of my pictures now look like shit because it has decided to arbitrarily crop them wherever it feels like cropping them rather than resizing and / or making thumbnails. I am.. extremely displeased with this. I am a bit of an aesthetic, as anyone who reads my blogs agonizing about how to paint little plastic men should know.

The fact that my blog now looks like a random bit of text that chopped up pictures got vomited up onto.. well.. it kind of breaks my heart. Hopefully with a few days of blogging and posting pictures I’ll actually get used to this version and figure out how to make things look how they should look.

In any case, despite Wordpress sucking… Honey, thank you for spending hours fixing things for me and even going through my computer and refinding all of my old pictures to put them back up. You’re the best, and being with you makes me an extremely lucky woman.

    I have to admit, after looking through your blog (which I like, otherwise I wouldn’t still be posting on it), I’m not too impressed with wordpress either. I think that should I ever endeavor toblog, I will be doing it with someone else.
