I liked the previous theme, don&#8217;t get me wrong, but it was difficult to work with and had some nasty bugs of it&#8217;s own.  This one is simple and quite a pleasure to use so far.<\/p>\n<p>One thing I&#8217;ve come to accept is for the past 7 years I&#8217;ve been blogging, it&#8217;s been largely an emotional outlet.  I have Twitter that serves admirably in that regard, and it&#8217;s taken away from the amount of other writing I do.  I&#8217;m hoping I can keep motivated through 2011 and stick to the weekly schedule of Music Mondays, Wildcard Wednesdays (photography, gaming, rambling), and Fragrant Fridays.  The latter will be crossposted on <a href=\"http:\/\/aromierotici.blogspot.com\">Il Mondo di Odore<\/a>, a blog run by several high-profile Basenoters and some good friends.  I&#8217;ve never been a contributor to a blog that wasn&#8217;t my own, so I&#8217;m quite excited about that.<\/p>\n<p>The site is more secure than ever, I&#8217;m seeing the occasional 500 error I can&#8217;t pin down, but a refresh always seems to clear it up.  I have four days to finish my final group project for Professional Writing and then I suspect I&#8217;ll start trying to get a feel for the self-set schedule and how much work and design I want to do.  Stay tuned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I did a pretty major reskin of the blog, in anticipation of some upcoming projects.
