[Obligatory hatred of cleaning here.]

I am ridiculously pleased with myself over my meager efforts to update dailydigestnews, because, let's face it, three days in a row is a better record than I usually had at the old site anyway. I'm still going slowly, but I'm trying to put up just enough each day to get myself back into the habit. So far I've put up bits ( Read more... )

I'm hanging out at the party page, working on pool stats while the earlybird E! coverage drones on. (Fun fact: Charlize Theron tried to get the lead in Showgirls.) The tagboard is up, although the features FOR WHICH WE PAID have not kicked in yet. GRRRRR ( Read more... )

This song is totally about heroin, isn't it?Arggghhhh. Updated the Digest. Only took me five hours, but that's what I get for getting sick/busy with school and letting the news pile up for three weeks. I wouldn't be so hard on myself except that the name of the damn site is "The Daily Digest." Sigh ( Read more... )

Tag Board! Still! Not! Upgraded! Paid! On! Tuesday ( Read more... )

So. Throat hurts, but in a really weird way only on the left side, so I actually called the dentist to make sure it wasn't a wisdom tooth complication. (It wasn't. Felt dumb. Oh well.) Am tired and achy and in the middle of trying to update the news for the first time in three years weeks, my computer flipped out on me. I knew I was in trouble when ( Read more... )

So. The latest entry on the Literature of Antebellum Reform reading list is Ten Nights in a Bar-Room And What I Saw There (1851), and it's gone from sort of quaintly engaging to balls-out melodrama in a matter of chapters. My favorite chapter is "The Seventh Night," in which debauched young gambler Willy Hammond is stabbed to death by swindler ( Read more... )

Hmm. Remember my "boys drool, girls rule" theory of webmaster working-together-ness? Yeah. We're gonna test it out today. I hope I didn't come off sounding sexist--I wouldn't choose one site over the other just because of the webmaster's gender; I choose the best site available to me. And my Trailer Park staff is currently all male, so I'm not ( Read more... )

All right, we're gearing up towards the show tonight. Pretty much nothing has happened so far, but I suspect that people will start arriving on the carpet at 5 pm (Central Standard), which is when I'll start enduring the Crone & Melicious Show. Six pm is the NBC red carpet, and seven is the show itself. We've got a tagboard up on the play-by-play ( Read more... )

I would just like to take a moment to say, God bless female fansite webmasters. The funny thing is, they're almost all I run into these days. Guys are the ones who run movie fansites--Batman, Superman, Hulk, etc.--but it's the girls who run the actor fansites for the most part, male and female actors alike. Of course there are exceptions, but this ( Read more... )

Well, here's the outcome of the Great Plea for Help Finding Affiliates: I'm in talks with cellardoor28's Matt Damon lead ("in talks." Sounds so very Hollywood, doesn't it?); alysscarlet's Clive Owen lead is a fait accompli already on the news page; and Gunther, who is my new hero, sent me a metric ton(ne) of link suggestions, and of those I've already locked down the ( Read more... )
