WordPress and Textpattern merging? Good April Fool&#8217;s Day joke. I don&#8217;t do &#8220;April Fool&#8221; stuff anymore, since I &#8216;grew up&#8217; but can appreciate it when someone pulls a good one, like can be seen on the wordpress official blog. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m tuckered now. I did some destruction in the kitchen a bit ago, and sat down afterwards to write a quick post about it, and that&#8217;s when I noticed the &#8220;announcement&#8221; that was made a few days ago about wordpattern. I was tired enough to look at it deeper, not &#8216;get it as a joke&#8217; right away, but I sure &#8220;didn&#8217;t believe it could be true&#8221; in any case since I knew it had to be impossible. Long ago when I decided to quit using MT, I looked at textpattern and wordpress, liked much about textpattern, but believed more in the vision for wordpress, and it&#8217;s actual future. So I got WP on my sites, and have enjoyed it immensely.<\/p>\n<p>As for my kitchen work: We have the kitchen torn apart, and there is something we still hadn&#8217;t done, by the stairs. There is a half-wall that comes down from the upstairs, and I have always disliked it that way. So DH gave me the go-ahead to tear that out today. We are going to build a full wall, which will be the first thing we&#8217;ve &#8220;built&#8221; for the kitchen, and the first real step towards getting new cabinents in, and getting an island built. This future wall will be nice since it&#8217;ll close off the steps from the kitchen, and make the depth against that kitchen wall more real, allowing for a small pantry to work there in the corner, and not have anyone throwing things into the kitchen from the steps anymore \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>I cut a piece of the used drywall to fit the shape of the steps profile. (There is an opening behind that wall area, and it has lots of dirt and junk in it. In the basement there is an opening where the steps undersides show, just above where the floor from the kitchen comes to. Our house is a try level, so it&#8217;s that the kitchen is on a crawl space, and about midway between the basement and upper bedroom floor.) I screwed that drywall piece in with just 2 screws, to hold it in place and keep that ick separated for now. It&#8217;ll get thoroughly cleaned out when we build the new wall.<\/p>\n<p>I had fun though, it&#8217;s very fun, to me, to rip out old building stuff. It&#8217;s tiring, but a feel-good sort of tiring. There is dry wall dust to get rid of now, sweep, sweep, sweep forever without getting it all out (the floor is just plywood subfloor, and holds onto dirt, especially something as fine as dry wall dust.)<\/p>\n<p>My nose was dripping from allergies already, and only dripping more now with this demolition. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ha ha ha.
