Live redesign
I’m throwing it all away and starting from scratch. I think this will be the best way to understand what is going on in the wordpress style sheet and truly end up with a site that is all my own. By throwing away all the styles I can hopefully force myself to put the pieces [...]
Read MoreFrontpage of Digg!
Now from that misleading title you may think that something I did made it to the front page of digg but it was actually just a story that I submitted. You can digg it here: http://digg.com/mods/Hack_up_your_MySpace_profile Over 1400 diggs last time I checked! And yes I know how lame it is that I’m excited by [...]
Read MoreWordPress 2.0
Working on getting the site upgraded to 2.0 so things may look a little wonky for a bit. Stay tuned! Update: I’m up and running on 2.0.1 with the K2 default theme and lots of plugins. Now I just need to get it personalized

Read MoreGood Writing
Is it something you are born with? Or is it something that can be learned? I consider myself fairly good at carrying on conversations, telling a lively story, making people laugh. But I don’t consider myself a good writer. There are a million blogs out there with 2 million different types of content. Do you [...]

Tammy the other day asked me what was going on with the site. I wasn’t quite sure what she was talking about, but she mentioned that the site was looking pretty plain.

Read MoreStagnation
Things are getting somewhat static here as of late. I blame it on the busy, but who knows how true that is. I would like to do a redesign and throw in some neatness, just to stay up to date on what is going on. The boys are good, we are good and school starts [...]

Well, we are now officially homeless and living with my parents. Granted, it’s only for two weeks, but it will be nice to live in our own house again. The boys are being relatively good and actually took a nap today. Thank goodness for small miracles. We’ve had a lot of good memories in that [...]
