The Update is Done!
Yippee! I am going to have to learn the new interface, and then the new changes that I am planning will take place.
Expect:
1. Less tolerance. Wait. That is not possible. I design work camps in my spare time. I probably have already assigned you a number.
2. More mercenary. Yes, more mercenary. I do not expect much to come out of this, but the occassional pitcher of margaritas supported by the blog will be good. By occassional I really don't mean more than once or thrice a week.
3. No new cosmetic changes for awhile. Perhaps at Five Years, we will do something different in terms of the look. Right now I like the Indian Red and Bullfight motif.
4. More food. I have been dropping the ball. It is fall. I have been cooking up a storm, as well as commenting on Mr. Riddle's literary foray into food. I should post this stuff here.
5. Spam. I am really hoping this change will reduce the spam I have to deal with. When I sit down with a post hot in my head, and then have to spend 20-30 minutes deleting spam comments, it gets tedious. The post then has to wait until I am in the mood. Less spam should mean more posts.
6. More pictures. I was having fun with the pictures thing, and just got out of the habit. I know that some have been awaiting my photoessay on Las Vegas, and I would like to post that. Also, speaking of things visual, work has started again on the Art Website. I hope to have it up and running soon. I will probably have a celebratory Art Sale, during which you will have a once in a lifetime chance to buy my art at prices that will NEVER be seen again. I am not kidding. I am not a salesman type, but I have a lot of canvases that need to get out of my house.
7. I dunno what else. Perhaps pictures of geology, as I seem to be taking a lot of pictures of rocks these days.
