Black Saturday Marathon: The Good Wife

Today, I got acquainted with a show from CBS that started airing late last year: The Good Wife, starring Julianna Margulies. The Hallmark channel had a Good Wife marathon this afternoon and I was able to catch a few episodes.

I don’t have the full story for why Alicia’s (Margulies) former DA husband is in prison, but the series revolves around how she is trying very hard to stand by her husband. This despite the scandalous affair that he had, and the controversies thrown at him, including being a corrupt public servant.

It is about a woman who tries to keep her family together while she restarts a career in a big law firm. It’s different from the other lawyer series that I’ve enjoyed watching in the past (Ally McBeal, The Practice); I can’t explain why though, hehe. I would like to watch more of this series. 🙂 Check out The Good Wife.

This is the first year in a long time that I’ve watched a different TV show on Black Saturday. Every year at Holy Week, for many years, Studio 23 has shown marathons of the Seventh Heaven  TV series. We’d go through an entire season in two days. This year, there was no 7th Heaven. I guess it’s because the series is already over. 🙁

My mom’s monopolized the PC all afternoon. Here I am sneaking in a post through my dad’s netbook. Can’t help thinking about the iPad and how it would be awesome for bloghopping. Anyhoo, I gotta go, my nephew needs some fish food for his fish tank. We can’t let the fish go hungry now!

What’s your favorite TV show these days?

Dilbert and Garfield

Years back, I subscribed to receive daily strips from Dilbert and Garfield. I don’t get to read them everyday though. So I was cleaning out my mailbox just now and saw these two for March 30th:

How do you feel today?

March Entrecard Roundup – Thank you!

It’s April Fools’ Day! Did you get pranked? Did you pull a practical joke on anyone? I didn’t. I thought about tweeting a line knowing that it would automatically be shown on my FB status. Something like – we’re no longer together; or it would have been – hiwalay na kami (we’ve split up). I just wanted to see if friends and family would react. Then I would have said, April Fools! and that it’s only because the boyfriend is in Bicol, spending the holidays with his family. But I couldn’t do it. corny din eh. 🙂

I haven’t been able to solve the mystery of the missing sidebars. Thank you Calvin for the suggestion, but it was the same even without the Adgi code. I will try other options this weekend…

It’s been sooo hot that even as I was very sleepy when I got home from work about five hours ago, I only managed a short nap and then became wide awake. The heat during Holy Week is killer! Our usually sufficient stand fan isn’t enough, reminds me of our old house that had a ceiling fan right at the center of the room that does an awesome job circulating cool air. With the heat we’re experiencing now though, even a ceiling fan may no longer be enough, you need a stand fan to compliment it!

Hay. I don’t have much time as I’m really supposed to be in bed by now, but I wanted to take time out to thank my Top EC droppers for the month! Time to drop ECs and place ads again 🙂

          

Thank you for my consistent droppers, I hope to see more of you in my comments boxes too 🙂

Missing Photos

My Project 365 for 2010 has crashed. I knew I missed taking photos on some days, but the greatest blow is that I can’t find some of the photos I downloaded from the camera on to the PC. At least they’re not important photos, I mean, they weren’t from any important occasions, but they were everyday photos that I was just now looking for because I wanted to blog about them.

Now they’re gone.

I can’t tell whether the mistake is mine or someone else’s. For all I know, I could have forgotten to actually download them and then just went ahead to delete the photos in my camera. Or, I might have downloaded them but saved them somewhere else. Or, someone might have downloaded new photos and accidentally overwrite them. Sometimes the photos are just named numbers instead of Month-Year-Number and it messes things up if that happens.

In a way this is an eye-opener for me. I should definitely get to organizing my photos, and get an online backup system up and running. Besides, one reason that got me derailed from P365 was that I wasn’t uploading daily. If I’m to restart 365 by April 1st, I gotta start cleaning my act up, er cleaning up my files. Once I get that cleared, I might just be able to digiscrap again. Might.

Sidebars move to the bottom!

I have had no readers or commenters say anything to me about this, but I get this issue every time I look at individual posts: the sidebar moves away from the left side of the page, and goes at the bottom of the post, below the comments.   

Let me illustrate:   


   

So, when you land on my main domain, http://verabear.net, you see my whole site with the posts, the header, the sidebars and the footer. Like so:   

all elements still shown

 

Once you click on the post title or the comments link, it will show this:   

Where are my sidebars?

 

You’ll have to scroll further down to find this:   

There you are!

 

The Adgitize ad group is supposed to be at the very bottom of my page, so the sidebar starts where it says Subscribe. I have no idea why my blog is behaving this way. I am also not sure when it started or if it’s only doing this for IE8 and the updated Chrome browser.   

Can someone please help me?   

I’m due for a site redesign anyway but I wanted to use this current theme as my base theme and just change backgrounds and stuff. That won’t do if it’s broken this way.   

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Or if you’d rather build me a custom theme for free then that would be super! Haha 🙂
