Okay. Now I’ve really done it. I’ve broken my blog. I don’t know how and I don’t know when, but it’s definitely broken.
When you land on www.TheOnlyGirl.com or click on “Home” across the top of my page, you will notice that my sidebar disappears from the right side of my screen and jumps down, way, way down, to the very bottom of the page. And YET! If you click on any of the other pages across the top (Meet Me, Email Me, etc.) or on a specific blog post, you will see that the sidebar comes back to the right side where it belongs.
But why is it hiding on my “Home” page??? Why oh WHYYYYYY? (shakes fist to the heavens in sheer and utter frustration)
I’m reasonably technical – like maybe a 7 out of 10 – but this one has me stumped and I’ve spent far too much time trying to figure it out. So I’m putting out a proposal to all you clever Bloggies. Desperate times call for desperate measures.
If you can solve my problem, or at least refer me to someone you know that can, I’m willing to offer up a reward. You can have your choice of any one of the following;
- a shout out and link on my soon-to-be-fixed sidebar for a week
- full use of our backyard ice rink for the remainder of the winter
- 5″ x 7″ colour picture of me and my Haley Ga
- a blog award to display anyway you please
- loan of my pink feather boa for the month of March
- my ticket to the Olympics Closing Ceremony
(okay, maybe I’m lying about the last one, but all the others are for real)
Okay – I’m waiting. I’ll be checking my email all day. Help me. Puh-leeze. I’m begging you. Begging. Can’t you hear my desperation?

From my black and white photo, plain white background and lack of different pages and things to explore, it doesn’t take a genius to work out I’m no genius.
Which is a shame because I really wanted those closing ceremony tickets.
Best of luck resolving the problem.

Oh well. That just means there’s more for me to keep. I’m presently wallpapering my basement with Haley Ga pictures.

Sorry–wish I could help, but I barely have a sidebar. Did the Wordpress (this is WP, correct?) peeps help? They are purported to be helpful…

i’m not a wordpress gal, so i feel utterly useless. i assume you can’t just drag it because that would obvs be too easy. i would cry. i can’t figure out why this would happen? maybe wordpress knows you were considering a long drawn out custody battle with me over hagaga? either way, i know how mega irritating this must be for you and i hope you/we figure it out soon. my company has a wordpress blog (that we never use) so i’ll try to play around on that and see if i can find any solutions. in the meantime, dry your eyes on your pink boa. help is on the way!

The situation is getting desperate. Next step – sue Wordpress.
