I’m just wanted to say I am planning on coming back on a more regular-like basis. I have a whole lot of opinions and things to work through.
However, behind the scenes here, the blog is a few versions behind and some of the scripts and plugins seem to not be working correctly anymore. So, I’m giving in and doing the upgrade to the latest version ofWordpress and as a result, dumping a lot of plugins because they don’t work with the new and improved Wordpress, and as a result, redesigning the blog — hopefully this will lead to a simpler, cleaner, sleeker site.
On the backend, I’m going to be doing some cleanup and moving around files which might result in some broken links (mostly to images), which I’m going to try to find and fix manually. I might be moving more of my images over to flickr.
There are a whole bunch of files that just aren’t needed any more that are just taking up server space.
So, anyway, right now I’m working on the redesign in my sandbox, but if you stop by in the next few days and the sight is unavailable, don’t get too discouraged; it’s just me trying to clean house.

Call me paranoid but I’ve suddenly been getting a huge number of subscriptions to the site lately using the email notification plugin for Wordpress. That always makes me wonder if the little hacker-types think they’ve figured out how to use the function to do something nasty, though I have no idea what. All of the emails look similar and are yahoo-types.
So, I apologize for the inconvenience for those of you who legitimately had previously subscribed but I have deactivated that plugin, which was old and hadn’t been updated in over a year, and replaced it with Subscribe2. To get notifications via email of new posts to The Naked Truth, go here.

I ordered a lime green pet carrier from PetEdge.com for Pugly that looks like a purse. We are going to be so styling going around town now.
I hope it arrives today because tomorrow he’s going with me to visit the gals at the beauty parlor/spa while I get my hair done and I know he doesn’t like his regular carrier. (I also ordered him an exercise pen for outside since I don’t have a yard.)
- I’ve had a low grade migraine most of the week that nothing has helped to reduce the pain of.
- Happy Cinco De Mayo! I was going to make Tamale Pot Pie, but I think I’m just going with the usual traditional Friday Chinese take-out.
I’ll make Tamale Pot Pie tomorrow. (see the comment about the migraine above.)
- I’ve got to pick up around my apartment. Sunny’s coming tomorrow and with Pugly around, I kind of let a few things backslide this week. I really want to get a Bissell Spotlifter too. I have the cheapest Bissell spot cleaner and it’s o.k. but I’d like the one in the commercial where the woman talks about the mystery stains and how she just leaves it to do it’s work and comes back. Actually, I’d like an upright. I’m forever spilling Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper, which it turns out is a red soda. (Am accepting suggestions on how to get this out of light tan carpet)
Netflix sent me Brokeback Mountain (Widescreen Edition), Casanova, and Price of Milk (Ws) this week. It’s going to be a weird movie weekend.
- Oh, and surprisingly, The Naked Truth got mentioned on The Hotline Blogometer yesterday. I had no idea anyone but like ten of you were stopping by.
- I really would like to find a spellcheck function that works with Wordpress 2.02.
- I’m sorry that there’s been a couple of disruptions with my server (Libby) on my new webhost the last couple of days. Not my fault and nothing as bad as the old host.
- I like the look of this new theme “Almost Spring” by Beccary, though I am still trying to add a few finishing touches of my own. You know me, always fiddling.
