**UPDATE** How could I forget to mention a giveaway going on right now?! You'd better hurry, though, since it ends tonight, but the best part is for every 100 comments, there will be one winner. Hundreds of comments means hundreds of winners, although I'm sure poor Gus would be overwhelmed. Why are you reading my rambles when you could be entering a giveaway, for pete's sake? Go HERE to enter and, hopefully, win!
If you've looked at my blog anytime since yesterday afternoon, you've probably noticed something funky going on, and that's my fault. I guess I missed monthly makeovers so much that I actually went through with my crazy idea to change my background, and I'm pleased with the results...so much so I'm going to bring back monthly makeovers. True, I didn't get this one up until halfway through the month, but it took some courage to take away all my settings, header and such.
Speaking of headers, I'm not sure what I'm going to do about it. I like the plain look, without any pictures or anything, but I miss the way it completes the look. Thoughts? I'd love to hear them, so leave a comment!
Another thing that's changed is I've put up a contact tab, updated my profile picture (thanks for all your input, readers!) and actual profile itself, along with my blog sidebar names.
So, does the pretty blog make up for my lack of posting these past couple weeks? No? Well, that's okay, because I'm back and I've got post ideas coming out of my ears, so it's just a matter of uploading pictures, writing descriptions for them, and hitting the publish button. If only it were that easy to do!
