For the most part, I have been able to handle setting up my own domain… installing wordpress and even doing some basic SQL database stuff.

So why can’t I seem to figure out how to install a sub-directory on my website? I was trying to add a message board to the site… Should I be creating a sub-domain, or just a sub-directory? I tried both and no dice.

I even tried moving the blog to .com/blog directory and I’m too stupid to know how to do that either.

So I give up. For now. Because the only other way I can think of making it work is to make up a whole new domain and install it there… and even then I don’t know if that would work. Plus that just seems kinda stupid. There has to be a way and I just don’t know enough to even google myself the right answer.
If anyone has the patience and inclination to walk me through it I would LURVE you. LOTS. I catch on pretty quickly, and I have a feeling it’s something easy that I’m just missing somewhere. You can email me: lil AT bitchinterrupted dot com

Otherwise I’ll just leave it and try it again another day.

**UPDATE**

I figured it out!  I got it all setup and everything, and then decided I really don’t like the look/feel of that particular forum setup after all.  Dammit I wish invision board was free!

Errand day

I feel kind of cheated when I have to get up early on the weekends. The only thing wrong with the morning is that it shows up too early. But, it was time for my first oil change and I really didn’t want to be stuck there waiting half the day, or deal with getting rides from friends. Plus I have a lot of grocery shopping and whatnot to take care of today. I didn’t want to run the grocery errands first, because I know myself and I would have finished and then blown off the oil change, only to have it stress me out for another week.

So bright and early (which is 7am for me) I was up and stumbling through the morning shower/dress routine. I managed to get the oil change/tire rotation and a car wash and was home around 10.I’m off to the grocery store and then I’ll be home for lunch, and a NAP!

All that and I forgot to weigh myself before my shower this morning, so I have to wait until tomorrow to see what kind of progress I made this week.

Hope you’re having a good day.
