I finally got the bug out that was screwing up the columns for Internet Explorer. It ended up being the Digg Reloaded plugin. I guess my CSS and HTML are better than how concerned I was getting about my skills. I could have kept looking at the code all day every day and never found anything wrong with the code for the styles.css
I have everything the way I want, except I will be making the header fade move over to the right enough to cover the third column. I will be brainstorming some ideas to make my blog fresh. It needs something special to stand out. The graphics aren’t great, and the coding is pretty plain, so it is desiring some bang. I got the idea to get some more bang from Copyblogger’s post: What Prince Can Teach You About Effective Blogging.
On the life note, we took K’s care to the auto shop last night. He ran some diagnostics this morning, and it was one of the three things I feared: the engine, computer,รย or transmission. It was slipping and refusing to shift and stalling at the worst possible times. The tests showed it all being related to the torque converter putting strain on the engine for the stalls, and the obvious issue of slippage. Married for three weeks, and financial strain already. It sucks, but we’ll get through it. I’ve got a decent position that allows me to work more overtime than I’m physically able, so getting hours won’t be an issue.
I played for about half an hour this morning before work, just trying to wake up after such a nasty awakening this morning. My alarm went off! This was my first morning being tired since we got married, so I guess it was long overdue. We had a long day yesterday, so we’d best get some sleep tonight, because we BOTH have work tomorrow. K has Thursdays off to catch up on errands and housework. Errands are getting postponed until I get off work because of a lack of a “K-car.”
