Database Confusion

I feel I must find out more information about domains, databases and such written for the terminally stupid. I have a new domain which is hosted free with Hosting Matters. Nice deal, just pay once a year for the domain itself (it is added to my account where I pay to host wordgrrls.com). Anyway, I am trying to set it up with a lifestream blog-like thing. But, I keep stumbling over databases and passwords and whatever else. I don't know which are the right ones to use any more. There are some from the main domain, some from my installation of WordPress and some from other things which I have uninstalled. I kept them all in the same Notepad file. Maybe that was my first stupid mistake. Now I am confused. Luckily, Hosting Matters has very patient and understanding technical support. I will probably have it figured out by tomorrow and finally know which database is the one I should be using for everything.

Pick Your Flowers

Sunflowers Say You're Very Buoyant

You are a truly warm person with amazing bursts of energy. You bring happiness to everyone around you, and you are adored by many. You're bright, bold, and cheery. You nourish friends you with your optimism. You can rise to the occasion whenever you are needed. You have boundless enthusiasm.

What Do The Flowers You Pick Say About You?

Considering Domain Selling

I'm getting less fond of the whole grrl thing. Originally I had the domain thatgrrl.com but it was hijacked. Then I bought thatgrrl.ca which I will keep forever, I'm pretty sure. Never say forever.

But, I am thinking on and off about not keeping thegrrl.com. It seems to be liked by SEO types. I've accepted a paid ad to run on the domain this year and an invite to renew it next year. But...

I've never sold a domain and it seems I shouldn't just leave this one to be picked up by someone who will do nothing with it. My old thatgrrl.com is has been a dead end ever since they hijacked it. Sad to see it made into a spam page after all the thought I put into choosing just the right domain name for me, at the time anyway.

Has anyone sold a domain before? How did it go? How did you decide what to sell it for? Did you have regrets later?

What Do You Need?

Seen in the blog of Lady Banana, who needed security. Mine is probably true too.

You Need Acceptance

You aren't truly happy in life unless you are able to accept yourself, flaws and all. You also need to be accepted by other people. You like feeling you belong and that you're not being judged. You are a welcoming and open minded person. It's not hard for you to accept others for who they are. You believe that everyone is happiest when we live without judgement or prejudice. And you're doing your part to make that happen.

What Do You Need Most?

Zack Attack

My nephew, Zack, is visiting for awhile. He likes when I mention him here. I'm not sure why. So for Zack...

I'm writing about paper airplanes and paper boats for the Creative blog. I came across this along the way. I also made my own, very first, paper boat.

Happy Face Pirate

These were on boxers. I would have bought them but Zack said he didn't want them. Maybe 13 is just too serious for happy pirates on your butt.

Mad Men Avatar

I've never watched the show but the avatars are kind of fun. You can make them in three different sizes. Here are my close up and my desktop wallpaper. Make your own Mad Men avatar.
