Weird

My paid LJ account is about to expire, and I’m not feel­ing any anx­i­ety about it. There are far more impor­tant things to pay for. Yeah, I’ll miss the extra icons and the sim­ple URL, but I’ve been try­ing to move to my blogs any­way. They’re syn­di­cat­ed here.

Oh — if you com­ment on the syn­di­cat­ed entries here, I nev­er see your com­ments 🙁 I love your com­ments and want to read them. Com­ments = Pos­i­tive Feed­back. Please, please, pret­ty please — go to the blog to com­ment! No reg­is­tra­tion is required or anything!

I keep tin­ker­ing with Ene­my of Entropy­’s lay­out. I love being able to add lit­tle thingum­mies here and there—random quote gen­er­a­tors, a list of my cur­rent cross-stitch projects, a Flickr badge full of pho­tos of Katie. I add or remove some lit­tle thing just about every day. 

Oh! I hit my Flickr upload lim­it for the month! I can’t believe it! After hav­ing an account for who KNOWS how long (for­ev­er, it feels like) that’s a first, I was upload­ing pho­tos of Katie. That’s real­ly the only thing that could do it (that or cat pic­tures). I was shocked that Katie was hit­ting her upload lim­it so quick­ly before she got a pro account, but now I’m doing it. I was jeal­ous of the abil­i­ty to do sets, though…

I was kin­da pulled into using Flickr more because of the Stitch­ing Blog­gers Ques­tions of the Week. Some of the oth­er SBs post pho­tos with almost every entry, which I like. So I did one pho­to to go with a post for one week. And then there was anoth­er the next week. And now I’m hooked, so much so that I had to put the pho­tos for this week on my Zooomr account.

I’d like Zooomr more if they had toys as Flickr does, but appar­ent­ly, most of those Flickr toys were devel­oped by users. So as they get more users, there will prob­a­bly be toys. Go, go! Join http://zooomr.com/! Free Pro accounts are still available!

Yahoo! Answers is the focus of my cur­rent lit­tle burst of enthu­si­asm, so there’s a badge for it on my blog. I get an inor­di­nate amount of hap­pi­ness from get­ting an email from the sys­tem say­ing one of my answers has been cho­sen as the “best answer” to some question. 

The oth­er blogs’ lay­outs are more set­tled and more seri­ous. Ene­my of Entropy is my play­ground. We have an actu­al sand­box blog, where we try out dif­fer­ent themes and plu­g­ins and so on in a test envi­ron­ment, but this is MY blog where I can have fun.

I think I’ll go put stuff in the Now Read­ing data­base and add it to the side­bar now.
