Any day that there's a blue sky above me I'm going to be feeling pretty good. Throw in a convertible, some tasty lunch and an increasingly interesting book into the mix and the result is a marvelous mood melange; excited anticipation of evening activities, a content feeling all over from lunch, etc.

It makes my multi-tasking abilities about 50% more efficient, as well, so that instead of juggling five things at once, I can keep ten balls up in the air.

Okay, there are still tons of things broken, including:

• comments
• staff/members page
• style on the back-end
• searching
• registration
• archives

Hopefully I'll have time over the next couple of days to get all that working again, probably in the order above.

Until then, though, feel free to keep posting stories. And e-mailing me to tell me how much you hate the new look.

Okay, I think I fixed the problems with logging in. To log back in, type in your nickname (or e-mail address, if it's been set) into the form to the left. Then click "pontificate" at the bottom of the page. Sound good?

Yes, I know about toast. But I haven't had time to link in the proper sections. And yes, submitting articles via the "pontificate" link at the bottom doesn't seem to be working for IE users. And yes, there's no "novus ordo seclorum" anywhere yet. Trust me, there will be.

But I'm just too damn tired to care at the moment. All play and all work and no sleep makes edward a dull boy.

Rather than continue to delay, I'm going to just put the new site up and work through the bugs as they come at me. Yes, I know that means that over 50% of the new site won't work, but the old site is simply too ugly for me to let live. So here goes:

The dredwerkz is now officially under deconstruction!
