Thing #24: Refresh Your Blog

Well, I've given my blog a makeover. I went from washed-out and sedate to tutti-frutti. I needed to cheer up after a long dreary winter. I tried to give my avatar a makeover too, but decided after much trying on of different clothes and accessories that I liked me just the way I was. I did add a list of books I'm reading right now for school. I like to test-drive books for my library.

I confess I haven't done any blogging since the last 23 Things on a Stick. I'd rather write my thoughts down in my journal than put my thoughts out there for the whole world to see. I'm not that good about writing in my journal either, truth be told.

As for blogging, it has its uses. One of the coolest blogs I've seen lately was a friend of a friend's blog live from the Inauguration. He was blogging from his iPhone as events happened. Pretty cool, huh?

Here We Go Again

Well, here we go again. I'm going to try the next 23 Things on a Stick.

I know I've been bad -- not using the blog I set up this time last year. But it always seems like there's too little time and too much to do. Besides, I'm reluctant to open my mouth. I'm afraid I will say too much and get myself in trouble in one way or another. It's not that I don't have opinions, it's just that if you don't voice them, the people in charge can't use them against you.

So here we go again. I will try to keep up while testing, packing, cleaning and fixing.
