I Got My Mojo Back

Published by Kirsten at 11:08 pm under Blog, Random, WordPress

I haven’t been this excited about blogging in a long time.  When I first got the blogging bug, I was playing with code constantly, trying to figure it out and really make the blog mine.  I got to a point where I was satisfied with it for a time.  Then I started realizing the limitations of the Blogger service, and they started making changes so that Google can start implementing their plans to achieve world domination.  My comments went down, and I ended up having to change a lot of feed addresses in my reader.  I sorta new for a while that I could do what I wanted on WordPress, and a growing sense of dissatisfaction with Blogger made the decision to switch easy.  Basically, it got to a point where blogging was no longer fun - kinda like when you go to the park but can’t play frisbee, catch, swing on the swings, or anything fun.  That’s how I was starting to feel.  So thanks to Snoskred and her very generous offer of hosting and setup that’s affordable even with the dollar being in a nosedive, I am here.  I still have a lot to learn, but that will come with time.  As it was on Blogger, when I needed to know how to do something, I figured it out.  Here it’s a bit more complicated, but I hope I won’t seriously screw anything up.

I am in the process of getting ready to do a new feature, which I plan on debuting in February.  I won’t tell you what it is yet.  I gotta build up the anticipation, you know!  It is something I have been thinking about for quite some time now, and it will give my blog a bit of focus in addition to the usual babbling about my daily life and other crap going through my mind.  With that being said, I’m going to log off for the night.  I haven’t been feeling too well and we all know how this blogging stuff can suck time like there’s no tomorrow (which means if I don’t stop now, I’ll totally miss tomorrow and wake up on Friday sometime.)

    Lisa, don’t forget that Snoskred did a lot of the hard work in getting it set up for me. But I’m really glad you like it!

    Alyndabear, thank you. New feature info will be revealed soon, I promise.
