| All posts are being simultaniously posted on Blogger and on Xanga. I'll do this until my premium runs out in october. No sense in not using it. Then I'll switch to blogger for good.
* I must endure trivia night at a local bar with my brother, which wouldn't have been bad at all if he did not insist on making homophobic jokes all night.
* I argue about various things with my brother's friend including choice, death penalty, the 'war on drugs', intelligent design theory in schools, and of course Iraq. I owned his ass. I hope he knows that.
* I have to listen to my mother passive-aggressively attempting to have me read this bookshelf full of evangelical christian crap that she has installed in my former room.
* Also have to endure my mother saying "let's move the furniture around" and then proceeding to (rudely) toss away all the ideas my dad threw out. Did I just miss this dynamic for the first 20 years of my life?
* I want to be back in Phily NOW NOW NOW. | | |
| As I get ready to leave for Alabama tomorrow (staying only for a week
there), I an drawn into working out my blog stuff and have discovered Blogger
truly for the first time. I am serious considering dropping Xanga
and switching over there. Let me know what you guys think
of the current layout of my blog over there.
Advantages of Blogger:
1. WAY more customization options.
2. More connection to the blog sphere
3. Skins that are BETTER than Xanga's WITHOUT having to pay for them.
4. The ability to host trackbacks
5. Oh, and you don't have to be a member to comment on people's sites.
So...thoughts?
