I hate blogs, but I'm giving it a second go...

I hate blogging for a simple reason: I hate the mouse. I'm a keyboard girl. I don't like to have to use the mouse if at all possible. I love keyboard shortcuts. It makes everything so much faster. Now what in the world does this have to do with hating blogs you may ask. I will answer: everything. Most blogs I read (which frankly haven't been many due to this annoyance) you have to scroll down for an eternity to read a small portion of anything that is said on it. And this I find highly annoying. And annoying enough I set one up and didn't touch it for a really, really long time.

I've worked with websites...not really by choice and I'm fully aware of the capacity I have to edit the html. The problems comes in I don't speak html and if I was going to be fiddling with html it wasn't going to be for some blog for myself but to make certain annoying individuals stop calling my business and complaining something wasn't right on the website (as a side note that was only my job cause someone found out I was good at technology...it is not my main job by any stretch). Alas, my extra fiddling with html or php (and to be truthful I'm not sure which one it was) was spent on a far bigger project that got thrown out when I stuck it to my boss--who frankly has no idea that I stuck it to her.

Thus, I avoided at all costs the blogging. The incessant scrolling was frustrating and it made me angry to think about trying to adjust it while staring at a language I knew nothing about except that it includes a lot of < > and a br and p's for breaks. But it turns out today I had enough gumption to fiddle long enough that I got this template fixed. I did this by the great brilliance of looking at the page source of several bloggers who have successfully made their so that you can expand the text area and not just expand the pretty background that is all fluff and forces my hand to go to my mouse. The template I really wanted didn't like the code I stole...so now I have dots. It's much better than I expected it to turn out but it's still dots.

So here it try two to blogging!
