I have a new blog look! A completely unintentional, accidental and mistaken (mistakes, apparently, being my raison d’etre) blog look, but new, nonetheless. With Christmas little more than a week away and my house (finally!) decorated, including one of two dollhouses (alas, I fear the other will have to go without this year but there is plenty of dust to mimic snow so it’s all good) I decided it was time to jolly up my blog. I thought I had chosen something that would cover the old world beauty of my (formally) existing template rather like a sheet of Christmas decorated plastic wrap over a plate of delicious cookies, (a perfect example of such can be found here). But, because I make mistakes, I got this, which is fine, I guess, only I don’t know where my beautiful old world template went and I don’t know how to get it back (wah!!) If I have to re-do widgets again, I think I will get sick (the ugly, urgent, projectile kind).
I was going to chat about blog comments today but Mombabe did such a good job of it here that I will refrain. She did give me a good swift kick in the pants regarding blog rolls. I never use mine anymore (I depend on the following, er, service--for lack of a better word, though I am sure a better one exists, I just can’t think of it this very dadgum moment because I am so worried about my lovely template) so I just don’t think to add new bloggers I love to read to my roll. So, please don’t take it the wrong way if you aren’t there. (This is what I tell myself when I continually fail to find myself on various blog rolls around blogdania. I mean, really, shouldn’t I be on all of them? Right? Yes? RIGHT?)
While I sit here wetting my pants over my lost template and the prospect of replacing widgets when I find it and whether or not Blogher is going to refuse to pay me the millions due me for having their ads in my blog b/c one of them is below the fold making me totally out of compliance (and off the payroll) I recommend you lower my blood pressure via proxy by listening to beautiful and gorgeous Christmas music sung by my fellow bloggers, here and here (to which I might add, They knock my socks off! and-- Why aren’t they famous, already?)
