lillilahI went out on another walk today. Amazingly, I walked up this _huge_ hill with no real trouble. I was pretty shocked. The poles help, but I think that the exercises I have been doing (treadmill sometimes, walking sometimes, squats sometimes) may also be helping. I am so pleased! I also got to listen to a chapter of each of the books that I cannot finish. Yay!! I was also significantly less exhausted than yesterday. I walked twice as much today. However, I didn't have a Portuguese lesson today, so maybe that is why.
I also finally fixed one of the problems that I've been having with the webpage for my podcast forever. A long time ago, I wrote some of the page to read the content of the RSS feed for the podcast and fill in the info on the podcast episodes based on that. It works well. However, not if there is an ampersand in the name of the band. I finally figured out a solution to that. It also freaks out if there is a period in the name of the band. It is pretty rare for this to happen, though, because how many band names contain a period. The answer is "a few", which means that there are times that it causes problems. Now, in the years since I wrote those webpages, I set up a database backend for the podcast to manage all the permission and contacts. The database also generates the files that are used to make the RSS feed. That's nice. However, I am still having the problem with the period in band names, and this time there is no easy way around it. Finally, I realized that instead of having this complicated setup (which originally saved me time editing webpages), I could just have the database generate the webpages along with the files that are used to make the RSS feed (and a couple of other pages). So, tonight, I spent a couple of hours fixing that. The website looks more or less the same, except that now, the most recent episode has a band name that has a period in it. Phew!
