It has been a terribly long day. Well, yesterday was. It’s after 3am Newfoundland time.

First off I didn’t get much sleep. I woke up around 9am but didn’t actually get into bed until nearly 5am. Getting into bed didn’t mean falling to sleep right away, so it was at least a good 30 minutes before I finally wound down enough to relax and drift off to sleep. After getting up and having a bite to eat I decided to finish working on the site. After a few hours off and on, I decided I was satisfied enough with it. After finishing up with that I decided I should probably go ahead and upgrade my Wordpress. This is actually something I don’t recommend doing when you’re utterly exhausted and feeling as if you’re going to pass out at any given moment. Seriously. It was just like my brain shut down as I began doing the upgrade. Thank goodness I remembered to back up my database, themes and plugins. Shoo. It came in handy when I wiped out everything by accident and of course when I finally got everything back up it was like I forgot how to import my sql file. Whoops. Thankfully though, I was able to sort through everything.

When I finally got everything back up and running, I noticed I haven’t been having those database errors. I wonder what that’s all about? I’m not sure if it’s just from upgrading or if it was something with the slim-stat plugin that I decided to do away with. Either way I’m happy to see those errors go bye-bye.

This upgrade sure was a pest though. I can’t recall ever having so much difficulty upgrading, ever, as I did today. What a pain in the butt!

I guess I should probably get to bed soon. I’m exhausted and it’s nearly 3:30am. I have too much caffeine (pop) in my system though, something I’ve been trying to kick but have been failing at.. again. We played dice for about 2 hours. Not sure if that’s a “Newfie” thing or what.. but it was (is) fun, even if my mother in law and I didn’t win tonight!
