WordPress 2.0
1Wow.
In the middle of peeing accidents, I upgraded to wordpress 2.0 today. It’s a stellar upgrade. Even after working with it for just a little while, there are some interesting features that make it worth the “effort” of upgrading:
- enhanced editor: the editor I type this post on looks a bit more like frontpage than the previous versions. It makes me really want to teach a section on wordpress to my accounting 168 students.
- blogger import: I had, perhaps, one of the most stressful events of my recent history on October 16th of this year. I blogged about it, for no other reason, than to mark it as a memory. It was in blogger.com and now wordpres has a blogger import. I did it and you’ll find the entire run of ‘A Day in the 100 acre woods’ and ‘Notes from the terminal ward’. Stellar stuff. I can hardly wait to explore this product in depth.
Day 2
0Today’s morning score: pants:2 potty:3. We’re still on top, considering both pants issues were in his ‘nigh nigh pants’.
We watched a video this morning called ‘Once upon a potty’; wow. Quote from the video ‘Boys have a penis to make wee wee with’. I’m looking at you Randy; reality is not too far away (laughs all evil-like). I’m waiting for Celldweller to do a potty song. I think I’m getting ‘Poopsmith’ out by Over The Rhine this afternoon.
We’re dialing it up a notch this afternoon and we’re going to work the house and not camp out in the bathroom.
Notes from the bathroom
0Today’s notes are from ground zero of the potty war.
Aidan, our dear lil’ toddler, has started potty training. Today’s score toilet: 5 (including a poopy assist), underwear 3. This morning’s work was on our toilet, and we realized Aidan has inherited daddy’s *ahem* small*ahem* backside and we ended up picking up a potty chair @ Target this afternoon; it’s working out a ton better.
The potty chair is a hoot. It basically is a 6.99 bedpan that (in some cases) plays music when you pee in it. The one we *almost* got plays Sir Mix Alot’s ‘Big Butts’ when you sit down on it; and who said parenthood wasn’t fun.
Better yet, what was Sir Mix Alot on when he decided that he would attach his song to a potty chair…

New Aidan photos.
0New photos of Aidan are up. It’s been really nice having Gallery; it’s been freeing to be able to upload photos a ton easier.
The pitctures are from Christmas morning/day.
