As I promised in the previous entry, here is a new layout. It’s just as unfinished as the last one (no “easy access” to the archives, lack of the all-so-thrilling and original bio) but I’ll have it up as soon as I am able. My process for writing and creating has always been a private activity for me, something I would wait to do until I was alone or out of sight, and while it’s not a sign that I’m uncomfortable I still feel a little silly doing this with new eyes watching me. I’ll get over it soon enough.

For my 2008 New Year’s Resolution I’ve decided to deviate from my usual “lose weight” or “reach X financial goal” and try something a little different. So, to make it official, here it is in writing:
I will post at least 1 entry to this website every 3 days. The content of these posts can be anything – they can be like my usual lengthy entries, be short blog-like snippets, or even just a picture with a caption. Anything will work as long as it’s something more than nothing. The only excuses I can have for not posting will be illness, vacations, or lack of access to a computer.
I chose this resolution as a way to once and for all decide where I stand with this website. I have managed to keep it online since 1999, I continue pay for it monthly, and at least once a day I think about writing or designing something for it yet I have done nothing but neglect it for the past few years. I feel guilty about doing that, especially since this website helped me keep my sanity as I stumbled through the most difficult times of my young adulthood. As I turn 25 and start to head down another path in my life I feel the need to express myself again but it’s been a struggle to get myself started. A post here, one there, and another one 6 months later isn’t good enough; I need more. So, this is my way of giving myself a measurable goal and seeing if I can accomplish it. It’s now or never again.
Can I do it? Sure I can. But will I? That is what I’m looking forward to finding out.
A new layout will be up shortly, once I decide how simple or complicated I want it to be.
