Man, I completely hosed this site today while upgrading to EE 1.6.6. I won’t spell that out so you’ll think I’m brighter than I am.

Everything was ducky until the last renaming of files and I couldn’t find the flipping index. The HOME PAGE. Gone.

So I’ve been having a heart attack for the last hour and a half, frantically renaming and refreshing and sending “the sky is falling” emails to Joelle at Moxie, as if she were my hosting provider and not this site’s designer, but thank goodness I did, because she remembered something about my installation that I’d forgotten. I needed three simple files for the multiple site manager. Imagine my relief when that polka-dotted background came up… and then I couldn’t access the entry page in the panel. WHAT? According to the cp home page, I had no entries, or blogs for that matter. Jesus wept.

Okay, one more language file for a plugin. And then I went and stood in line at the pharmacy for my prescription. As soon as the kids are home, I’m crawling back into bed. The three hours I spent there after school drop off weren’t enough, and I need to park my head somewhere so sinuses can drain.

You’re welcome.
