Welcome To The Beginning

For a time, a long time, I blogged almost without fail..as consistent as I can at ADayInTheLifeOfRJ.com. It has been my favorite blog, a self-hosted one,. powered by WordPress. I loved the freedom and control that WordPress gave me, specially because it was a self-hosted blog. I install whatever plugin I choose, upload any theme I like and even edit php files as if I’m a pro (of course, I’m not a pro..).

But this recent update to version 2.6 has hurt me a lot. It’s very frustrating for me. I just couldn’t take it. I’ve always been the patient, persistent and persevering kind..I don’t give up easily. Nor do I lose hope. But this recent bug in that recent release which has caused me and a whole lot more of WordPress users to have blank pages is just too frustrating and disappointing. Hell, one of the toughest issues I had to deal with online.

My first blog has been with Blogger and I was content for a long time, until I felt the need to switch to WordPress because the many plugins I’ve been seeing had me drooling over my keyboard. That’s just me, always ready to try new things. It went on pretty fine and I had a great time., really. Until this new update came along. 

Right now, as I write this, I’m still working on fixes I research from the wonderful world of Google..but so far, no joy.

I hope I fix this. I’m just too tired now. I’m feeling cranky and grumpy from that sleepless night I had..I loved WordPress..but like many people I’ve loved in the past, it did not love me back — at least the way I expected it to..

And so begins this rjmarmol.i.ph blog.. aptly titled “The Reformed Blogger”. So far, it’s been very promising and intuitive. I’m loving it. I hope this time, I find what I’m looking for…because if I do, I’m never gonna leave..Never. 

Welcome to the beginning.
