Blog Stuff: Updates

The wisdom of Homer Simpson: "The internet? Is that thing still around?"


I really miss blogging here. :( I've just been focused on other things, and it when it comes to blogging, I'm usually working on Ambitious Blog. And to think, I started that blog so I wouldn't have too many entries over here. :|



I wanted to work on this site as soon finished revamping and moving that one; however, some of the other things I've been working on includes helping Noel with his album. I designed the cd label and cover for him, designed and coded his Myspace, and just yesterday flyers fliers for his release party. I still have to design his official website, which will include several other sites. So, that got me to thinking that I should probably work on PurrMeow Designs. While that was my first time designing an album cover, I did stick my site in the credits and should probably get working on that.



/// SOME BLOG STUFF: Old Entries I love looking back at my old posts. Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I shake my head. :laugh2: LOL. Not too long ago I went and put protected some posts. Now I'm going through and protecting about 99% of them. I do miss my style of writing and hate to close posts from so many years ago (first post was in December 2003!); however, I've moved on from most of that stuff. Nothing I posted was bad and I don't care who has seen it already or who will view it before I get finished, I've just moved on. It sucks that there's certain points in my life that I documented and would like to keep up that will be closed. This time around I'm not going to read through each post, I don't have the time. So far I've kept some of the shorter posts I could quickly skim through. These were mostly site updates. I may start reading more around my pregnancy and keep those few posts. I may even keep a few from senior year. I was considering backing the blog up to my computer and just deleting it to start over. I don't like that idea.



So, from December 2003 and up to just a few months ago I've been locking down the entries. Like I said, nothing I posted was a big deal I just want to move on, especially if I'm going to stick with the long planned idea to have a business under the name. Stupid high school stuff just doesn't mix.



/// SOME BLOG SITE What else? I purchased a domain for this site. I'm not sure if I'll even use it. I like the "juice" I get between this site and the domain, so I may even make it a redirect to this subdomain. :cool: I purchased it because there was a discount going on and I can name several times I waited too long to get a domain before it was too late. >:( I loved PurrMeow.net when I registered it, it just wasn't my first choice. :eek:



I think that's it for now. As a plus, that means I have a lot less entries to go back and add tags to. :p



/// SOME SITE STUFF: About the site... It appears as if personal (life) sites aren't as popular anymore. At the same time, I haven't been trying to look around very much. There's a few of you still out there from back in the day (Shelly, Simply-Precious, Sheila, Terin, Brandy, just to name a few I just put in the sidebar ;) ) and that makes me happy. :heart: I don't care about the decline. I started this blog mostly for myself, to document my life, even if that means talking about the little things. When I do get back into regularly blogging here it will still be my personal site. I plan to post more pictures like I used to. It seems like during the last few years while I had a lot more to blog about with the many changes going on in my life, those same things going on in my life kept me too busy and disinterested to do so. I'll also add back a lot of the user content. :p



Well, it's almost 5:30... In the morning. :dead: This entry is long enough, but most of this stuff was long overdue to be posted. More posts more often also means less to read each time, LOL, so this type of entry won't be an common thing... Hopefully. Oh yeah, I did fix the broken smilies issue from the upgrade. :)



If there's any personal sites you frequent, feel free to recommend them. :) And even though I don't comment very much, I do visit my friends out there. ;)

Woah. Good luck with all of Noel's CD stuff!

Hehe, I know what you mean about locking the entries. I don't do that, though, but I haven't read through many of my entries either. I don't really mind, it just gives me memories of all of the things that's happened. Hehe. I've started reading some entries again the past couple of months, but I've been too busy to continue... Hehe.

Yeah, my site's been declining since like last year too. A LOT of people stopped "web-designing". Oh well. I still like to blog, so I'm still here. Haha.

Geez, you're up so late!! Hehe!
