It was 'early to bed' last evening, but there was little sleep until I probably finally lapsed into some from a form of exhaustion, I suppose.
My wife had been home when I sought my bed as soon as I witnessed the arrival home of my younger brother as I passed time in the darkened living room with a constant eye to the outside through our large living room window.
My wife had actually arrived here just as I was closing out of yesterday's post, so I never had the opportunity to mention her arrival in that post.
Anyway, the arrival of sleep was not long-lasting, and I was again awake in the midnight hour and rose then to potentially get some work done online. I had retired fully dressed, for this has become my routine.
Well, that intention to engage some work was to be delayed, for my wife was shut up in this room ─ she often resorts to spending time here in the evenings when she is home.
I obligingly went downstairs and reclined on the chesterfield in the darkened living room to wait her out ─ that may have taken a half hour at most, but I was so comfortable downstairs that I felt it could have been quite easy to relax into some sleep while I was there. I chose not to see if it was possible, however.
So I got my time here, and now I have what I suppose are the three most crucial pages for a website ─ specifically, the "About", "Privacy", and "Terms & Conditions" pages ─ set up on my new website Thai-Iceland.com.
As a result, I suppose I am free to start creating my first post.
Nevertheless, I am finding that as I negotiate through the WordPress interface of the website, I consistently meet with an error declaring that the website is offline, even though this is untrue. What I see is an error page declaring "Error 521 ray id:" followed by a 16-digit code comprised of intermixed letters and numbers.
I use Cloudflare, and the error is apparently specific to problems related to Cloudflare and my web host (InterServer) failing to connect.
I haven't yet found the time to explore a correction of this issue, but it is quite serious. The error can and does manifest even when I try to update a post or page, or even to publish one; and when that happens, and I back out of the error window, everything that I had added to the post or page editor field will have disappeared.
Because of my concern about this happening when I have spent several hours in the creation of a post, I now have the browser addon Form History Control (II) to ─ I hope ─ retrieve all of my work on a post whenever this occurs in the future if I do not manage to figure out how to be rid of the error problem.
It is already after 7 p.m., so I want to finish and publish this post. However, before I go, I want to mention something I discovered just this afternoon while performing a search to see if any North American radio stations have yet embraced the all-Christmas music format.
To my enormous surprise, I learned that radio station WWIZ (West Middlesex, Pennsylvania / Youngstown, Ohio) made the music format change over a month ago ─ specifically, at 12:25 p.m. (as in December 25) on Friday, September 25. You can find the 'play' button at the bottom right area of their web page.
Sure, they have their usual commercials and station breaks, but I've been finding that they tend to play several Christmas songs consecutively before they make any such interruptions.
I also learned that a U.K. radio station ─ Magic 100% Christmas ─ that is one of the subsidiaries of Magic Radio, has been in the all-Christmas format since August 26, if you can believe it!!!
I wanted to try it out, but to do so requires visiting their website and choosing to accept their "cookies", and I refuse to willingly do that for any website.
I have no problem at all with a website depositing its cookies my way when I am not aware of it ─ that's what websites have done for many years. But I am not actually going to say that I want the damned things, as if they're some kind of gift!
Just deposit the stupid things, and leave me out of the equation.
Because of this resistance on my part, I am not linking to that station. You'll have to find it for yourself if you want to give it a hear.
