Please… just grant me this little break…
I am dying a slow death by To-Do list
By BBoyd • Apr 14th, 2008 • Category: Blog, FeaturedPlease, just kill me now. Because I am never ever going to catch up. There are some days that I think to myself :
“Self… You cannot possibly put one more thing to learn on that to do list.”
And then I catch some iffy behavior from visitors poking at wp-admin files on various installations. Mainly, those I upgraded. (specifically, some jquery includes and the browse happy image.) And I go about spending the day tracking down offenders and making a plan for hardening my installations…the day that was crucial to spend doing something else so I stayed on track with my precarious budget. And with resign, at the end of such a day I read about the rumors of a sql injection attack on the wordpress admin login . Damnit. I really, REALLY need to sleep. And see the sun before summer hits. But as it is…I.Never.Will.Ever again.
I really advocate to people who operate a blog on their business website (like myself) to avoid complaining and sounding whiney. But … I just can’t help it today. I’m not launching into the litany that IS the personal financial crisis I find myself in or what it’s done to my health or mental state. Just suffice to say….GRRRR.. Can’t you hackers pick on someone more important, with more resources? Just this once? I’m a struggling single mom who hasn’t seen daylight in months, I’ve been working so hard to keep afloat. There just isn’t the time left in my days to suss you out. And there’s millions of WP blogs out there. Can you just stay away from mine for a week or two so I can catch up on my mortgage payment, please?
