A Day In My Life

Since I learned to read, I have been fascinated with words. I quickly realized that, via words on a page, I could go anywhere and do anything I (or the books’ authors) could imagine, physical limitations notwithstanding. The world opened up further when I discovered I could write my own words.  Since then, I’ve never known a time I was not writing something, somewhere. Letters. Poems. Essays. Stories. Assignments for school/college. Personal musings. Lists. (I’m infamous with at least one of my friends for my To Do lists.)  Give me a pen and paper or a keyboard; I’m good to go.  Some people create art with paints, oils, or charcoal; I use words as my medium of choice, and I have long acknowledged the power of words.

Ever since I started learning to edit html to tweak my blog, I’ve never been one to leave it alone for very long. Now that the template has been updated (yet again!), I’ve decided to add a few features that I had before…

along with a new one I’ve been waiting a long time for. I still need to work on the Expandable Post Summary coding a bit (and will do more reading on that soon), but it is once more part of my blog.

before new templates and hacks became available for Blogger, since the update of the platform. I’m happy to say, I’ve found some new templates, and new hacks for later tinkering! I’ve never been the most patient of people, but these were well worth the wait. I like the new xml format for templates, and it’s an extra opportunity for learning. I may just jump in and see what it’s like…but I’m going to wait until I have a couple of days or so, because it looks more complex than html…although, come to think of it, there was a time that html looked like Greek to me…
