I almost had one big damn excuse to not write anything.  Ever again.  Getting this site up and running was quite the chore.  Perhaps I’m just old and don’t understand this brave new world of technology.  Actually, there’s quite a bit of truth to that.  But as I sit here banging away at the keys after midnight, my current frustration is really my own fault.

I had things set up on WordPress.com, but then decided I needed to be just a little bit cooler (or more nerdy) and get set up on my own hosted site, using WordPress.org.  Don’t worry, I won’t bore you with the explanation of the difference between the two.  I’m not entirely certain I fully grasp it.  But WordPress tells me it’s there, so I guess I’ll accept it.

Mind you, I hadn’t really done much with the .com site, so why I thought I had to upgrade things is a very fair question.  I just did.  I can’t (won’t) explain it further.

It’s hard to believe I got through this initial process without alcohol.  Of all the times to have a dry house when a little nightcap would be so well-deserved …

Anyway, now I think I have it working (I think), and though I doubt I’ll be posting something on here daily–I know I won’t–after all this effort to get things up and running I must commit to more frequent outbursts of pablum.  Some of it might even rise to the level of mildly interesting, but I won’t get too ambitious just yet.

I’m going to start with posting a couple of things I wrote awhile back just to get a little area filled on the site.  And to buy some time until I think of something else to write!

Now it’s time for this semi-old guy to get some much needed sleep.
