I think I've finally fixed the LJ speed problem. I tweaked some connection things but mainly, I think, it was the style I was using. One of my friends posted some wide (and really lucious) photos that fanned the text out way horizontally. I had to scroll side to side to even see the entries.
So I decided to give one of my other styles a go and it not only fixed the scrolling problem but the LJ pages now pop right up instead of my having to wait. Interesting. Glad I nailed that problem. For you cable vs. DSL people out there, yes, they did seem to be a lot faster at Mom's with her cable connection than here with my DSL. Not scientific, just an observation. I'm not converting but it's an interesting thing to know anyway.
I am taking today off from work but it is still a work day. I have to wrap the Christmas present for my New Zealand friend and get that ready to take to the post office tomorrow. I have to clean up this stack of papers next to the computer - go through it all and deal with each piece. Put everything away that is not put away. Get organized. Once I do all of that, I can just fuck off for the rest of the day.
