Whew, that was close!

That title there? That’s sarcasm. More on that in a bit.

First, I’d like to point out this week’s Worth a Thousand entry, The Knight’s Tale, based on some super-sweet artwork provided by Patrick McEvoy. Give it read, tweet it, share it, and spread it around like a cheap paperback with a well-thumbed page 124.

I would have doing this pointing yesterday, but…

On Sunday I got a panicky e-mail from my web host anxiously informing me that, while they’d love to automatically charge my credit card and renew my domain, the card on file is expired and time is running out.

Well. I wasn’t about to let one of the the dozens of squatters just waiting for a chance to snatch up darrellhardy.com do any early bird-style snatching, so first thing Monday, I hopped on and updated all my info. That must have flipped a switch somewhere on the mothership, resetting everything, because within the hour this lovely front page was replaced with a nasty “The owner of this site is a looooser” placeholder. How embarrassing!

Long story short: Problem solved, domain secured for another year, and the mothership has been reassured. Everything’s okay now, mother. Go back to sleep.
