At my wit’s end

Yes, Otto, I KNOW: Switch to WordPress. Well, if using MySQL were easier…

I just upgraded to MT 3.2, and as you can probably tell, I’ve f’d up my site. Well, this is nothing. At first the upgrade locked me out of the site. Then, when I finally got MT working, I discovered it had blown away 99% of my comments, so I had to delete the entire weblog—Three times I had to delete it, because MT kept timing out—then reimport all the entries.

And now I have to fix the template. Well, I was getting kinda tired of the old one, but damn: don’t want to start futzing with a new one. Jeez.

Life is too short to have blood pressure this high.

    Uh.. I also vote for switching to WordPress AND you can get your MT archives in there. I did. 🙂
    Heck, you can even have the same template.
