What In The World Was I Thinking???

Ok, so I decided I wanted some OJ with my dinner and went to the cubbord to get a glass. Didn't realize until I started pouring juice that I had pulled out a bowl. What is that about?

The Wide World of Blogging

Ok... so, I have this wonderful friend (Julie) who has been trying to get me to do blogging for my Storybooking business for a year now. But I just have not understood it. (ug). The closest I have come to blog is Myspace. Well, out of necessity, the past few days I've been trying to get my blog up and running (blog.beastoryteller.com) and after playing around with more than one blog site I think I may have found one that is suitable for what I desire.

I would like to go into detail about my experience though. So, Julie, in order to help me out, gave me a link on her TYPEPAD account. It's ok, but it's frustrating worrying about what I can change and not change because it's not my account. Then last night, I realized that I obtained a blog through GODADDY with my BEASTORYTELLER account. Well... let me just say GODADDY is not very user friendly and I need user friendly. I was talking to Julie earlier about my desire for my own blog account and she recommended WORDPRESS. I didn't like the choices in layouts though it was a lot more user friendly that GODADDY and TYPEPAD. Now keep in mind I've spent about 45 min working on each blog account I've obtained. Then I got an email for Book Club today (thank you Lisa!). BLOGSPOT...I loved the layout... so I thought... ok, I'm going to try one more account. I finally have a blog page set up for my business that I really like! (thanks again Lisa!!) And I've decided to do a personal blog (way cool). Little did I know that so many people I know have their own blogs... why have I been in the dark for so long???!!
