Four years of MoodyTunes.

A few months ago I added the Archives link to provide a different method of searching for old posts. I noticed then that everything started in August 2006, and I made a note to write an anniversary post this month. So here we go…my thoughts on a four year old blog.

Blog slowdown, travels.

Sorry for the posting slowdown — I’ve been away from my computer more than I thought this summer. That’s probably a good thing.
Right now I’m preparing for another fall semester in Nashville. I’ll be teaching a little bit, hope to be writing a lot, and like I said a few weeks ago, that means fewer [...]

I’ll be rambling around a bit for spring break week so such musings might [...]

Greetings, Earth people.

Hello, inhabitants of planet Earth.
You never imagined alien life would arrive via snowflakes, did you? Well, the joke is on you. Ha ha ha.
Already we have appropriated one of your primary news sources and we will begin broadcasting out our demands as soon as our Limb Acquisition Engineers find implements more useful than these [...]

Backups and updates.

A random site update — comments on yesterday’s post reminded me to back up all the files related to this site. As a former IT professional I should know better than to go long periods of time without backing stuff up.
Thesis Time also means Procrastinating Time so I upgraded WordPress, too. That’s the software [...]
