…to navigate from oldest to newest, I think I shall have to reverse all my sequences back to the way they were before. It makes more sense to change it back, so now I’ve made even more work for myself!

My sweetheart gave me…
…a wonderful idea! She mentioned that people hadn’t been looking very far back in time on the site. She thought that was a shame. That made me think along these lines:
“Well…” I thought to myself, “The site really is like a long book of verse isn’t it?”
“So,” I continued to think to myself, “Why not make it easier for someone to move through the work from the beginning?” Continue reading
I was not in a coma…
…but my machines most definitely were.
Can’tact me:
Of late, I find myself contemplating leaving the comment section of this blog “wide open,” i.e. deigning not to require logins or even unique UIDs. Would anyone like to weigh in on this matter?
In addition, I have recently added a contact page; although wordpress is still the best way to get in touch with me. I check my email approximately once a month unless I am specifically expecting an email from someone, or for some reason. I have therefore listed such contact information in descending order of effectiveness. I have never, for example, even run a skype client under my publicly known name; and wordpress does not allow active skype URIs in any event. However, in the event that someone is feeling very, very lucky and happens to catch me in an especially amiable mood, I offer up my skype ID in the event that said individual should wish to dial me over and over until his fingers bleed.”
On an unrelated note, I believe the next pay service I may buy on wordpress by way of celebration of some goal achieved will be the “No Ad” service. Even though such ads are only presented on individual posts and only to logged-out users; still, unpredictable content rankles my aesthetic sense–such as it is.
The Viking Situation:
Herein I attempt to link all the relevant posts wherever they may be:
- First: the location of the original exchange: February 7th, 2013 at 4:03 am
- Next, the whole enchilada: My first…
- Next, the introduction which you (kanzensakura) stumbled upon: Where is Waldo?
- And the sonnet I wrote inspired by the whole exchange: Sonnet:
- Finally, a note about the piece–titled referent to my research on the subject: FYI
Now, after and, I think during the hole affair, there were even some very peculiar emails exchanged. They seemed to appear in great heaps. Those, however, I did not save, and had I saved them, I would not publish them here for ethical reasons–even if I chose to redact the identity of the author of these.

The Big Merge…
…seemed to go off without a hitch. My final step this evening has been to remove all the post from “reflections.” I did have to modify a few elements. Some menu items were duplicated, as were all three blogs made to look similar. It appears that I could very well merge all three into one. The same effect as before could well be accomplished with one blog and three distinct categories. I believe I more fully understand the issue of “tags” vs. “categories” and would now have little trouble using both to accomplish this.

I have (un) done it!!!
I have, indeed, completed all the “<— previous — view — next —>” links. I have been working on it a little at a time. And now I am done! Sometimes I would add the links from the older toward the newer. Sometimes, since I have been adding the links to all the new posts, I have added some at the front, slowly working my way from the newer to the older. Occasionally, I have done some editing on a sonnet or introduction somewhere in between, and have added the links while I was there, which made the process seem faster–like being dealt a wild card, or a free square in a crossword, or in “Scrabble.”
Now I can go back to archiving the site posts in skydrive, which had been my “do it when I have free time” project, prior to this.
UPDATE: I have undone it! No more extending functionality unless it can be done within what is available. Otherwise such things are far too difficult to maintain.
