Silly Me

I have a habit of starting something new and abandoning it 5 minutes after investing a bunch of money into it.  Tony points this out constantly.  Let’s see, there was stamping, knitting, crocheting, glass painting, sewing.  The list goes on and on.

When I was pregnant, I starting blogging on my myspace.  I know, I’m like so totally cool.  I figured it would be like every other thing I start and I would quit in a month.  Then a year went by.  I decided if I was still blogging when I hit a year of non-myspace blogging,  I would buy my own domain and find a host and all that.  And 7 months after that, I finally went through with it.

I think the biggest reason I decided to make the switch was so I can go annonymous.  Not like I won’t tell you where it is or anything.  I just don’t want to use our real names anymore.  I don’t even care if you hear them in a video.  I just don’t want my blog to show up on a search for our names.  It’s not for me or Tony really.  It’s because kids are cruel and google is powerful.  I don’t want some bratty teenager searching Eliana’s name and finding pooping stories (or a video, ahem) and I don’t want her teenage self to have to deal with that.  So after I make the switch, I will leave this here for a month-ish and then set it to private.  

Except I apparently don’t know what I’m doing.  I can not for the life of me figure out how to get wordpress to work or maybe my host is broken or the site I bought the domain name from OMG kill me now.  I’ve already paid for a year.  And time is ticking.  And I am just as lost as I was 2 weeks ago when I started.  And if you want to help me I WILL LET YOU.  I’m going to keep trying and I’ll let you know when I have it figured out.

(I know it is ironic that I say I’m consistently blogging after having not blogged for a week, but my laptop has been away at the fix-it place.  Still under warranty.  Go me!  But it’s back now and I promise I will be a better blogger.)
