Well, the issues with Achroite seem to have resolved themselves, after enough hard resets and crashed disk checks. But the upgrade will still wait until I'm on winter break; I really won't have the time before then to work on it as deeply as is necessary.
With Ach' back up and running, I was able to FINALLY get around to doing some more site maintenance. There was the usual round of minor bug fixing (I finally don't have to restart IIS everytime I want to update this file!), but the big news is the completely revamped/rewritten personal page. Check it out and find out more than you ever wanted to know about me (eventually...the development framework is there, but the content is ...well...lacking).
Until the next crisis event (currently preemptively scheduled for this weekend),
