    We had chicken and brown rice with fruit salad (that Emma made). I had Salmon instead of chicken. How’s about you?

    I also bought some sugar free ice cream bars. I will be enjoying one of those in a little while.

    i’m still drinking diet soda, but besides that, i’m not eating anything “diet” or “low-whatever.” if it’s not good for me, i’m just not going to eat it…or i’ll eat it sparingly.

    Sugar seems to be the key for me. So I try to cut as much as possible. I will drink Diet coke, too. Quitting that would take more will power than dropping a few lbs.

    I love white bread and grew up on Wonder Bread!!
    It tastes so good.
    Try one slice of white bread with butter and sugar on top.

    Not a fan of whole wheat bread. Whole wheat tastes like it has small rocks or pieces of wood in it. Don’t like iceburg lettuce either.
    Update on Lunch - Tuesday - 1 large Jimmy Dean Steak burrito ( it’s in Valencia ). Today - 1 Carl’s Jalapeno six dollar burger.

    I’ve never liked “white bread” (wonder-bread style) either. It’s pretty much all the bad stuff and none of the good stuff about bread.

    For some reason when you said your togo’s sandwich was on “white” bread, I assumed that meant some kind of whitish colored bread (like french bread, etc.).

    The TOGO’s sub classic white is a french bread sub roll deal.

    again? I’m going to forget my weight.

  16. Posted January 30, 2006 at 10:36 pm | Permalink

    Yeah, yeah, yeah…. I restarted it before I went swimming tonight and I had messed up one of the startup scripts so the web server didn’t come up until I got back. It was only like an hour; geez.

    yeah, an hour right when i’m trying to check it!

  18. Posted January 31, 2006 at 1:01 pm | Permalink

    OK, I may have been generalizing, but I can say that it was one hour and 18 minutes at most.

    Probably less actually, but the last web server log entry before the reboot was at 9:10pm, and the next one was at 10:28pm.

    No you know how it feels.

    Anyways, why aren’t you using your web host? And don’t give a long comment about security and configurability because I’ll just say, “why don’t you have your blog on at home too?”.

  20. Posted January 31, 2006 at 11:05 pm | Permalink

    Well, I don’t know exactly how you felt, since I’m not using a package like Plesk, so I knew exactly what went wrong and fixed it in a matter of minutes. :)
    I am using a hosting service, just a different one than the one that I’m currently using for this blog. (I’m assuming this is why you were thinking I was running at home?) I set up a VPS plan a while back, and I just haven’t gotten around to moving everything over yet. I’ve transitioned most of my other domains and all my email already; this blog and Martha’s are the last things to go.

    I did used to (a couple years ago) run everything on my servers in my old garage, but that was when I had the wonderful Speakeasy as my DSL provider. When we moved up here, we were too far away to get DSL, so I had to switch to Avenue Cable (which became Wave Broadband). While the connection is much faster (4MB), they also have restrictive policies like not allowing you to run web or mail servers on your home account.

    Don;t bring up plesk again. That wasn’t the problem, the problem was not knowing what the problem was exactly. And Plesk DID not hinder me from knowing the real problem, because I know that’s what you’re thinking.

  22. Posted February 1, 2006 at 3:58 pm | Permalink

    I beg to differ. In my opinion, the reason you didn’t know what went wrong is because Plesk does all the changes to the config files for you, and so when something goes wrong you don’t have any way of figuring out what it did. Well, actually, I guess you could look into how Plesk actually applies the changes, but then if you’re going to go through that much trouble you may as well just edit the config files yourself.

    Even if I’m wrong in your particular case, I still maintain that this is the big problem (generally) with using things like Plesk, and why I will continue to bag on it every chance I get.
