Surprise! I’m bringing back one of my favorite series from the original Pintucked: Some Kind of Wrong. This series features all the ugly crap (to be blunt) I can’t believe I find on the Interwebs. Eeesh.

Blue, fine. Black, fine. Color blocking, fine. But when you put it all together like this and the dress looks like a SCUBA suit? We have a problem.

No wonder this dress is on sale. It’s too ugly for anyone to want.

A new beginning

Looking at the blog today, you might notice some thing is different.

We got hacked and, like a genius, I hadn’t gotten around to backing up my blogs, and there you go. For Stuff About Cats, that’s one year of blogging work gone. For Pintucked, that’s four years of blogging work gone. AmyNievera is still around because it was the last to get hacked and I had the sense of mind to back it up as soon as I found out about the others.

So, what now? I don’t know if it’s necessary to say I’m pissed. I’m pissed at the hackers, yes, but mainly I’m pissed/frustrated/annoyed with myself. I’m not stupid. I know backing up my blogs is not just a “good idea” but instrumental, like scanning your computer for viruses once a week or eating your vegetables. But I was lazy/lackadaisical/lame and didn’t implement any backup plugins.

Give me a second to angry. I have to figure out what to do next.
