Peruse
Sunday, January 28th, 2007
I don’t know what my fascination is with this damn thing. For the past week I’ve spent redesigning, redrawing, and everything else under the sun in regards to this site. For the life of me, I don’t know why I keep doing it. For the third time in three years, I’m starting my site up again. Three different hosts, two different domains, and most probably my 10th layout I’ve tried and tested. Much like 2005 when I shut my site down, I kind of missed it. I found myself doing nothing during that period. Much like this time when I shut it down last year. I might have shut it down for completely different reasons (I was too worried about what everyone else thought that I forgot that I did it for myself, and a few other reasons..) but the principle was still the same. Over the time where I shut it down until now, I found myself doing nothing. Absolutely sweet fuck all. I’ll tell you now, it sucked hard. I was sleeping more than someone clinically depressed. Here I am, at another crossroad and I find myself driving down the same path, ‘cept this time I plan on making some better choices. I’ll see how it goes.
As of right now, I’m still working out the kinks in everything. I’ve decided that I’m going to move everything over onto Wordpress’ system and use that for things like small content pages, this journal, and a handful of other things. My plan is to make everything easy to update and shit like that, possibly get myself somewhere with my site and maybe publish a few things. Until I begin to write, it’ll look much like it did before, with my posts covering the majority of it. I’ve also decided that I’m going to cash in on my website too. See those links down there at the very bottom of the page? Yeah, those are Google ads. That’s right bitches, I’m a sellout. I sold my soul. Personally, I don’t give two shits what you think! But really, the only reason I decided to stick them on now, is because Google can wire you the money that you make, instead of sending you a check. In other words, you need to randomly click those links every now and then just so I can have an extra couple of dollars in my pocket (or to go towards paying for my site.)
What have I been doing since october you ask? Fuck nothing. It’s depressing actually. Eat, sleep, shit and work has been the monotonous drool that I’ve been doing since a little before christmas. The most active I’ve been since then is possibly Christmas day, and Australia day. Oh, remember my beardy thing I had going? Originally, I started growing my sideburns, had them for two weeks or so, and I gave up and grew the rest of it. Truth be told, I kind of just didn’t shave for two weeks and got sick of my stereotypical internet nerd neckbeard that I had going on and shaved that off. What I’ve kind of got now, is kind of weird, but like before, I’m not going to shave for a couple of weeks (oh, that and I’m sunburnt under my neck so it’ll be a pain to shave under my neck to begin with) and see where that pans out.
It’s a little unsettling when I’m talking about facial hair as something incredibly important. Like I was saying before, I’m going to attempt to bring in more visitors to my site with some kind of important article that I’ll write randomly, otherwise I’ll just turn it into what it was before. I’m not too bothered, but that’s my goal. My plan, alright!
And oh, for the sake of people knowing, I managed to write a post 01-01-2007!
