Moving over to Dreamwidth

Well folks...

It's a bit of a wave of movement, isn't it? Suddenly, more people are Beta'ing and a bunch of people I know want in. :) I feel all part of the herd. Baaaa and stuff. ;)

Anyways, I officially disconnected Loudtwit last night. I was only doing that to try to get SOME content into my journal, but... looking back, most of it wasn't, really. It was me just screwing around and singing to my twitter.

I suspect that this is going to be my last livejournal post. I'm in the process of porting everything over to my dreamwidth (as soon as we figure out what bug stopped my journal from being ported over in it's entirety), INCLUDING my CC journal (because alot of the gall bladder and wedding planning stuff is there, and nearly all of the weight loss/exercise/health stuff) and sorting through it all.

Somewhere, in all these pages and pages and pages of journal entries is the story of my life. From relatively humble beginnings as a student finishing up school, to finding the one whom became my wife, to moving to DC, getting my first job, to getting my second BETTER job, to losing my mom, to getting married to.. where I am today.

So, for those of you looking to keep tabs on me, I invite you over to my dreamwidth page: http://hkellick.dreamwidth.org/.

Goodbye and thanks for watching.

PS Do not ask me for invite codes. I don't have any. :) K thinks I'll get some when we go open. You can talk to me then. :)

OK: I set up a feed. dw_hkellick

Porting Stuff Over Manually (and thus a suggestion)

Well... after some thought I've decided it was time to conglomerate. I trust that eventually someone (zorkian or someone else) will figure out why my LJ port failed, but until then I'm porting over stuff from CC, so that everything I've posted of value in the last few years ends up here. :)

This means porting things over manually. By copying and pasting the entry, changing the time, etc.

Can I point out how big of a PAIN this is? Especially when I forget to click the backdate button and have to go back and fix that (losing the time).

If I might make one suggestion, make it easier to backdate. Here's what I suggest...
Let's get rid of the 'Don't show on reading pages (allows dating out of order)' button. Honestly, if I'm going to go to the effort of clicking 'Edit' next to the date AND to change the date, I intend to either backdate or.. foredate (?) and it's going to be out of order. The button's just a hassle.

Not a bug. Just a complaint/suggestion
