About the website you’re reading.

Comment Counting [en]

Finally, after days and days of sweating, I found the solution to the “comment counting” problem. Thanks a lot to all the kind people who looked into it.

Now you can all see that nobody adds any comments to my posts ; )

Sitemeter [en]

Yay! I got a great cool free site meter. Peek at the little shiny square at the bottom of each page.
And hey, that means I have graphics on my site at last!! hehee.

RIP Music Section [en]

I just realised that I forgot to mention I had killed the music section. If I want to suggest a music pick to you, I’ll do it here.

Apart from that, I’m not really happy with the look of my site. I’ve tried changing all the fonts to Verdana, but I’m not even sure it’s better. The size of my titles collides with my text.
Sure, teeny winsy fonts look much more “pro” – but I have such a hard time reading them that I can’t bring myself to put them on my site.

I know my site lacks graphics, I have been planning to put up some pictures for nearly a year and a half, now. Only before that, I need to sort my slides and scan them – as for creating graphics, forget about it: I can’t draw to save my life.

The “comments” feature is now functional (except it doesn’t show the number of comments on the link), so go ahead and use it as much as you please – I’ll be happy to read them comments, you know…

There – done with the whining. Though if you have any constructive solutions, I’d be glad to hear them!!

Comments Coming [en]

While checking out my “places” these last days I noticed a really cool “comments” feature in jo’s weblog.
I’m currently implementing it on my site, and I’m very happy it uses PHP – I love PHP! – so don’t worry if it takes a day or two to be functional…
Here is the code for these comments. More information at blogger discuss developers forum.

Listed! [en]

Please don’t make any comments about people who blog every five minutes ; ) – I’m in the blogger directory at last.
Big thanks to the webmistress for pointing out the missing link.

UpdateFU [en]

There. Done. Too late.
I’m becoming more and more like the common weblogger.

I’ve registered at updatefu.com and weblogs.com…

Offline [en]

I hardly go on the net these days. I’m overbooked, for one thing, and I don’t have a computer – for another.
I’m starting to miss India a little. Probably because Somak, Aleika, Akirno and Cali are coming over next week-end on their way to Birmingham.

Site

I’m seriously considering merging the music section with this main weblog. As far as I can see, it doesn’t really make any sense to keep it separate.
Maybe one of these next weeks when I find a computer and a little time…

Netscape Ph33r [en]

I have hopefully managed to fix the style sheet glitches. The other day, I had the chance to have a glimpse of my site through Netscape 4.5 on a 14-inch monitor.

Terrifying experience.

Oooops… I’ve messed up the style sheets a bit – will be OK soon though, promise!

Archive Index [en]

The archive index is now functional. You can go and visit used logs as often as you like.

You should see a few changes around here in the next week or so, mainly a “writing” section that I am putting up for your eyes and minds.

    Je voulais écrire hier. Hier, deux semaines après la mort d’Oscar. Le choc a passé. Je suis de retour au travail – avec difficulté la semaine dernière, on verra ce que raconte celle-ci. Il reste le manque. Il me manque. Je commence tout juste à entrer parfois dans mon appartement sans ressentir très fort la présence … Continue reading "C’est pas le pied"
  • Ghosts in the Heart08.05.2026
    In the days of early grief, the pull towards the being you lost is still there. It pulls at your heart but has nowhere to go. It is a ghost. A ghost of habits and rituals, a ghost of familiarity, who feeds on unmoored love – another name for grief.  Like a phantom limb in … Continue reading "Ghosts in the Heart"

    Voilà, il est là. Il est là, le soulagement. Je savais qu’il serait là. C’est normal, après des années de soins, d’inquiétude, de peur de ce qui allait arriver. C’est normal d’être soulagé de ne plus porter ce poids. Il est arrivé plutôt rapidement, le soulagement. Mais je n’ai pas fini d’être triste. Je ne … Continue reading "Les invités moins attendus en temps de deuil"
  • Un univers parallèle sans Oscar04.05.2026
    C’est très déroutant. J’ai l’impression d’avoir été plongée dans un univers parallèle, à la fois familier mais pas tout à fait juste. Je suis régulièrement saisie par le sentiment d’avoir oublié quelque chose, par le besoin d’aller vérifier quelque chose, d’une absence anormale. Je sens le soulagement qui pointe le bout de son nez, une … Continue reading "Un univers parallèle sans Oscar"

Derniers médicaments du matin – je lui donne un Cerenia entier, parce que c’est le dernier de la boîte, et sait-on jamais, il sera peut-être un poil mieux qu’avec un demi. Et si c’est pas le cas, c’est pas comme si je devais garder la moitié pour demain. … Continue reading "Ce matin avec Oscar la Star"
