Well.
Tonight’s goal was to alter the look of this blog, mainly to see if I could actually do it. And I’ve done it. Hooray.
In WordPress-ese, the new design on which this new lay-out is based is called a “theme.” As in, I previously was using the default “theme,” and now I’m using a different “theme” that I downloaded off the WordPress website. This particular “theme” is called “Pearly Grey 10.”
I’m not terribly crazy about it, but the goal was not perfection but merely alteration. Now when people visit my blog (ha!) they’ll need at least three seconds to figure out I’m a newbie, whereas previously they could tell instantaneously. I’ll be scouting up other “themes” in the weeks to come, and maybe even learning how to make adjustments within a given “theme,” altering it for my own purposes (he said ominously).
All of which is to say… progress. I’m picking up speed here a bit.

I’m learning more and more of this blog stuff every day. It won’t be long before I’m drunk with power.
