Technical Difficulties

August 14th, 2008 by Karen 11 Comments

My server has a stomach ache, and the blog may be opening slowly for you or may not be working at all. I’m sorry about this, and I’m working with my hosting company to get things back to normal. It’s nothing terribly serious, so it shouldn’t take too long to fix.

I hope you’re having a good day.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

UPDATE 8/15/08: The problems with the server have been taken care of, so the blog should be working correctly again. We now return to our regularly scheduled programming! 🙂

    Hi Melissa,

    The blog was busier than usual, and I guess it did something to the database, blah blah, connections… dunno. My host is working it out. I freaked out, too, LOL! I went straight for the extra strength TUMS! There are more than 600 posts and 10,000 comments I would hate to lose.

    How was your Thursday? Anything exciting happen?

    hi Karen,

    About 1 month ago,i suddenly couldn’t browse your bolg as usual.I think my comment maybe can help you to get known what had happend to your website.

    This is my firt time to submit a comment though i had had an eye to your bolg for a long time. You couldn’t believe i’m in China~ For my addicted to your blog, i use a web proxy to catch your update! you know ,the proxy must use a server from US, or i can’t read it. (DNS Error)

    i hope your server could return to normol soon,

    your friend UV.

    Hi Karen,

    Recently your blog took forever to load in my computer, which makes me think if I got viruses. I’m glad to know you’re back to your normal schedule 🙂 Go Karen!

    Hi Dao,

    Aye! I dunno why it started acting so nuts, but I think the server folks worked it out.

    Hope you had a good Friday, girlie. Stripes/Tabs says hi.

    Hi Glosslizard,

    LOL, me too. It looks like I burned through the TUMS pretty quickly. I need to get a Costco sized one!
