Taxonomy upgrade extras:
So, to my three fans, I'm posting a warning note, and this is not a Halloween joke. I'm currently having some technical difficulties on a number of fronts.
I've upgraded the ol' computer to the latest and greatest version Mac OS X. I've been on OS X since the public beta, and on the mac for a lot longer than that. So I had very few reservations about upgrading on day one, and I must concede that it was a mistake. The installation was a nightmare, but I think after 3 days and countless hours of waiting on hold with apple, I think I'm in a place where I can maybe get some work done.
That said, my productivity has taken a major hit, and the things that don't work right in 10.5 is A LOT.
As you may know from a previous blog post, I am also a Scrivener user. It's a great app, and while I started writing Being Christina Chase before I became a Scrivener convert, it's now indispensable.
When I was reinstalling the world by hand to cope with OS X install woes, I grabbed the latest version of Scrivener. When I opened up my project in the new version, it attempted to update the format of my file, and completely hosed it.
Being good and paranoid, I pulled the old copy of Scrivener and my old copy of BCC off my backup and I'm mostly back in business.
I don't think I'll miss my Friday posting, but this is a warning notice just in case something else goes wrong.
