(no subject)

I know, I know, I'm harping...

Exhibit A (Needs tweaking. I like the picture I've put up, and the set up, but it might be a little too dark.)

Exhibit B (Not much needs to be done, besides the usual starting set up stuff, profile, links, etc.)

Exhibit C (The name is easier and the more thematically appropriate, but I can't find a journal style that I like. Not to mention a lot of work to do to convert it. Also, LJ is better at letting me put up PayPal donation buttons.)

If I go with one of the non-LJ ones, I will either figure out how to get it to RSS, or post the link until I figure it out. In the meantime, blarg!

Also, I should figure out when, exactly, I'm starting. *sigh* I hate being rushed by the Universe to do things on Chaos-mode. Maybe one of the other two might be better, given the Tricksterish nature of this whole thing...


In other news, a veterinary dental office I applied to do reception/occasional assistant at actually emailed me to say they got my resume and will be contacting people for interviews in the next week. So, that could be a plus!

Could I impose upon you to check both the PayPal button and the RSS thingy on here when you get a moment? (Looks like this is the one I may end up having to go with. I can't get Wordpress to allow me to put the donation button on. This one seems to have. :) )

*looks sheepish* Yeah, that part would probably help, huh?

The paypal link worked just fine.

To get it over to LJ, you need to get a syndication page (http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=137&q=rss&lang=). Only paid or permanent accounts can create a new syndication feed, though.

I have a paid account and can help if you need me to. Just let me know what you'd like it to be called.

My regular account is actually a paid one, so now I'm poking at the syndication thing to see if I can figure it out. So far, both of my first options for the Account name seem taken...

Well, I've either confused things more for myself, or done something, but I poked things until I came up with this.Did a "testing" post on blogspot, and am waiting to see what happens.

Hopefully I haven't just blown up the world.

Looks good!

There's a delay in the update, so don't worry on that score.

Cool. Yeah, that was the part I was a little worried about, but I haven't dug around yet to see what the lag time is. *crosses fingers*

Thanks for letting me know about that. I didn't even realize I could do that. :D

Yay. Glad it worked!

OH NO WHY DID YOU PUSH THAT BU-*

*world ends*

But why do they make buttons so shiny if you're not supposed to push them!?!?
