Hotmail rejecting comment notifications?
I don't know for sure that it's just Hotmail that's too blame, but I have verified that I have been receiving only about 5% of notifications I should have been getting. If you think I am rude or ignoring you or ducking questions, chances are I never saw your follow-up to my comments. It's easily enough fixed for comment threads in my own posts using the LJ "inbox", but there is no way to remember what comments I have made in other people's LJs -- and that comprises the bulk of my current posting activities. I just figured nobody was following up to me in these outside threads. Especially since SOMETIMES a comment WOULD make it through, creating the appearance of a working system.
So annoyed. :(
If you're using Hotmail, I suggest you switch, I know I will be. Their new "improved" Live service sucks anyway.
Am an uncle a second time.
Yesterday stayed home with a horrid migraine, missed out on seeing a musical I could have had free tickets for (sorry again, northbard). Am now thinking it was linked to the mouldy wet ceiling tiles I cleaned up this weekend. Oddly enough, when I called in sick to work, I didn't have the migraine yet, I just thought I should be having one and I might as well stay home and work on the website in the nude -- and sure enough, I got it as predicted!
Work is still holding me captive in the HTML Mines. There have been several cave-ins. My temper has frayed and I have stepped on several toes, some I am rather fond of. Am coping with the stress by surfing LJ and commenting whenever it builds up; however procrastination just means it builds up more later. Am coping with THAT by not sleeping. Spent Sunday night sleeping in my car in front of the office because I locked myself out but was too tired to drive back. Wife complaining I never cuddle anymore. Seeking to remedy this!
Feeling pretty good about things in general. Finances are getting better, work-doom has an end in sight, house is getting cleaned up, I am married to a wonderful woman... I love fall, that helps. The temperatures are finally perfect for me.
Was looking up some poems today, and I came across this old favourite by Cohen; it's how I feel right now:
THE WRONG MAN
They locked up a man
who wanted to rule the world
The fools
They locked up the wrong man
MUAUAUHAHAHHAHAHAHA! Ha. ha. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
