Results!

After throwing my computer through the window and then realizing that rage won't solve anything, I asked one of the Web God's minions to help. Turns out he knows CSS. He fixed my no-picture problem, but now I need to get it centered.

Still a work in progress...

Playing

I'm still playing around with the look of my blog. Having trouble getting an image to show up in the background. Working on getting it transparent, but HTML is not my first, second, or 5th language.

Bear with me.

Time

Haven't had much time to post here over the past months - hopefully with the story ideas that have been boinking around in my head, I'll remedy that.

Checking out new blogger templates too. If anyone still reads this, let me know what you think about this template, and if you think I should change it.

Yep. Pretty much.

I have no idea what this means - how appropriate.

I hate Mondays.

This morning at the grim hour of 5am, I woke up to a blue-eyed midget staring me down, 1-inch from my face. Normally this face makes me sickeningly happy. Not so much when it is screaming "JUICE!" at a level that has the cat's fur standing on end.

Missing out on that extra 30 minutes of sleep caused me to forget not just deodorant, but gas money.

Then I left my sausage biscuits in the microwave for 20 minutes and now they are little bricks.

Yay, Monday.
