Trainwreck Diaries

Hello again.

I’ve completely lost count of how many times I’ve changed this site. Seems like a couple of times a year that I screw something up or just get sick of what’s up here, scrap the lot and start again. This time it was both – I intended to scrap it all and go from scratch anyway, but the screw-up wasn’t my fault – something went wrong with the automatic update thing, which meant I had to delete the software and completely reinstall.

“So, what do I have planned this time?”, I hear you ask in my mind. Well. The last thing I tried to start up here (a music review site) was always a bloody stupid idea considering my eternal lack of motivation and accordingly never got started… so this time it’s just a personal blog. I know, I’ve had dozens of those and they’ve all failed, but this time I’ve decided I won’t pressure myself to write because that’s the one way to guarantee I have nothing to say, and I won’t say “my intention with this blog is (insert idea here)” because it never works out that way. So I’ll just write about whatever, whenever.

Oh, and for the record: this layout and colour scheme is only temporary. Searching for the perfect theme is invariably a waste of time – I always end up finding one that’s near enough what I want and then tweaking it to my own specifications. It’s been a bloody long time since I dabbled in any sort of coding, let alone PHP (which I’ve always struggled with, if I’m honest) and I’m far too stressed and tired right now to deal with it right now. It’s been a complete nightmare of a day already (long story short: someone in personnel or payroll fucked up big time, I’m not getting paid this month), coding troubles might just be the final straw.

As of tomorrow, or possibly later this evening, my internet connection is going down for maintenance and won’t be back up for a week… so I guess I’ll have plenty to rant about by then. See you on the other side.
