Total: 160 out or 239. I’ve seen 66.9% of these movies. I guess I’m pretty mainstream in my movie tastes. And yes, like the title says, I have no life.

While I was setting up some new plugins, I turned on posting via email. I was always a bit scared of this before. Tonight I decided to face my fears. Who cares if someone jacks my shit. I can always fix it later. Nothing is ever permanent in the digital age we live in now. That’s the beauty of web content.

So off we go with the new set up. I should be updating the look and feel of the site once I find a new theme to use. Sadly, I haven’t learned enough CSS to make my own theme just yet. I am getting better though. I should have my resume and portfolio online soon. That will give you a since of how far my coding skills have progressed the past couple of months.

After 75 years, Vandyland is closing it’s doors in June. My mom and I used to spend many an afternoon at Vandyland (then called Candyland) eating a banana split or drinking a milkshake before we headed home. We’d always sit up at the counter so I could talk to Mac and watch him work. I never wanted to leave because we were having such a good time. Plus, leaving meant we had to get on the interstate to head back out to Bellevue. I hated the interstate.

It’s sad to see a Nashville tradition shutting down after all of these years. I’ve been going to Vandyland all my life. I don’t know anything different. I feel like I’m losing a piece of my childhood today. I’ll have to make sure to make a few trips down there before June. If this keeps up, the Nashville of my childhood will be a distant memory.

As you can see, we’ve just made it through the initial ramp up period. We’re sitting on seven bloggers at this moment. Fill out an application if you’re interested in blogging about the “Athens of the South.” We’d love to have you.

The above statement is a lie. There was no snow in Nashville last night. After 2 solid days of meteorologist hype, the citizens of Nashville woke up thoroughly disappointed. Every weatherperson on every local station seemed to be using the same TelePrompTer. They were all claiming we’d see snowfall amounts in the range of 2-4 inches. Well, as you can see if you live in Nashville proper, we now know these “experts” don’t have a clue.

Now, some of the surrounding areas (White House, Portland, Clarksville) did see fairly significant snowfall amounts. I’m glad to they’re able to experience winter to the fullest. I wish I could say the same for us here in Nashvegas. All of those people who made the stereotypical run on Kroger are probably feeling a bit overloaded with groceries now. I feel worse for all the kids who’s parents ran out to buy them a sled or toboggan in anticipation. Lisa Spencer, Leeland Statom and Lisa Patton should have to drive around from home to home to apologize to all the children who were undoubtedly upset when they woke up this morning.

I don’t know about you, but I don’t really want to spend all of my money on gas for a 4-hour trip. I’d like to be able to have some fun while I’m down there. I also don’t want to get in a situation where I’m stuck somewhere without gas. I don’t think there’ll be a shortage, but you never know with the way the local news media across the country is sensationalizing these stories.

With that said, I’d like to think that I’m not going to let something like this affect my plans. This is America, and we do what we God damn please no matter what. I guess I can always rely on the old standby, the credit card.

This week has been insane here at work. Too much to do and not enough time to do it. Things should settle down and I’ll return to my normal activity.

I will probably do a little bit more modifying of this theme, but right now I’m still trying to learn the basics of both WordPress and CSS. I’m just glad I was able to do what I did.

Cleaning and Stain Removal

Too many morons start a WordPress blog and don’t even bother to change the style up to fit their personality. I don’t want to be one of those morons. As a graphic designer I owe it to you, my loyal fans, to give you a pleasant visual experience.

I saw a few themes during the WordPress theme competition that I liked. I’ll have to dig around with those till I find “the one”.

Soon I’ll have plenty of articles up for your perusal. I’m planning on purchasing a new Mac, so I should have an article up on which decision I make. I’m also planning on posting some interesting stuff about Aussie Rules Football here in the States.

Until then, stay cool (especially here in the South)!
