Moving Day
I’m 37 years old and I consider myself fortunate to still have a full head of hair. At least, I assume I do. I suppose it’s entirely possible that the woman who cuts my hair has discovered a bald spot and has been humoring me with what beauticians commonly refer to as “air-scissoring.”
But even if I do possess the luscious mane I think I have, the random outages my website has experienced will eventually liberate me from all my hair; both from stress and from pulling it out in fits of rage. If you’ve ever been annoyed that my site is down, feel comforted that it’s but a fraction of the anger I feel. I’ve contacted my web host numerous times about the matter but have never been given a satisfactory answer. So, at this point I think the best way to remedy this problem is to simply switch web hosts.
Now, if I do this correctly (and by “I” I mean my friend, Kelly who knows much more about this stuff than I do) there should be no downtime during the move which I’m scheduling for this weekend. But if you come to my site on Saturday or Sunday and you’re greeted with a smoldering crater where my site once was – don’t fret. It’ll hopefully back up and running on Monday.
Wish us (her) luck!
Good luck to you Kelly!!!
Good luck! I’d hate to go a day without Bug.
Try using Cloudflare on top of your existing config.
Yay for Kelly! b 😀 d
Never saw so much as a blink over the weekend. Good luck with the new host and I look forward to what you have in store for us. 🙂
Well, we never got around to doing it last weekend. The move will be happening this coming weekend.
So, I’ll see you Saturday to watch the website go up in flames.
I cannot go on without bug.
I just want to tell you both good luck. We’re all counting on you.
Are you quoting “Airplane!”? Because if you are – awesome pull!
Yeah Dreamhost has never been that reliable or fast. Hope the new host works out. If not, I’ve had good results with WebFaction because they don’t overload their servers.
Good luck, my fingers are crossed!
Did anyone else giggle at “air-scissoring” with the thought of lesbians doing it in mid air?
Yay, it’s back, I really missed my bug this morning.
I totally missed this post and was greeted by said smoldering crater this morning. I spent hours preparing my finest hobo ensemble and doomsday warning signs, then on a whim decided to refresh the site again and found that the end times had not actually arrived. Quite the relief, I must say.
Good luck, Kelly and Adam! (Mostly Kelly!)
You could have had a laff if you’d been here. I happened to pick that moment to transfer my bookmarks to a new laptop … spent way too much time trying to retype the address by hand, cursing, etc. before it occurred to me that perhaps the problem was at your end.
Glad to hear the site is back up and running, when I saw the smoldering crater I honestly thought I was going to cry! WE <3 Love <3 Ya Adam! Bug is probably my favorite web comic at this point!
