back on the air

Hey all,

LeavesSorry about the delay here at GL. What an October! Here’s a summary af what happened here, as well as why GL is just getting back up and running now. I can see that we still have hundreds of visitors still visiting the site regularly, I’ll get to posting some good stuff to you shortly. Drop a comment and let me know you’re still out there, I appreciate all of you! :)

(Sept 27 – GeekLimit.com goes down hard)

October 2006

Oct 1 – I get back from a long weekend vacation (and 50+ mile bike ride) to find the site is still down
Oct 3 – I still can’t get into the hosting admin panel, tech support says the server is fine

Oct 4 – Home inspection, refi

Oct 5-9 I’m busy preparing for a conference I’m speaking at on the 10th

Oct 12-15 Working on final projects for 2 of my grad school courses

Oct 16-19 Taking final exams for grad school classes

Oct 20 Troubles with home refinancing, poor estimate of home’s value

Oct 22 Grandma is admitted to Critical Care Unit, obstructions and heart issues

Oct 23-28 spending spare time at hospital, obstructions OK, heart worsening

Oct 29-31 Gma admitted to ICU, heart issues worse still

Oct 31 Start new semester of grad school

Nov 1 Gma heart problems significantly better, regular beat pattern, breathing much less labored, high spirits

Nov 2 I realize that GL has been down for almost a month, and get some time to address the issues. Hosting is OK, but bad plugin preventing page load. Reinstall wordpress and ystematically disable 40+ plugins one at a time, find the culprit. Found a new theme and moved upload folder to new install.

Nov 3 Back in business! :)

Ever have those months where you wonder where the time goes? That was October for me. I feel completely drained by everything that went on, but can’t really point out any real accomplishments for all that work. It might be a little depressing, if November wasn’t looking so good! :)

Stay warm everybody, and let me know you’re still here!

  1. Good to see GL.com back again. And this theme is definitely much better than what we had before.

    Great.
