After the semi-crisis that was Version Two and a brief period of being in a creative coma, this is Version Three. I call it Version Three. (Before you make fun of me, you know how some mornings, your creative side just isn’t awake yet? This would be one of those mornings.) Alternatively, I suppose it could be called “What Would Happen if Version One and Version Two Produced Offspring.” Because it does look a little like that, even if I didn’t really mean for it to. That’s okay, though- I’m satisfied with this, at least for now…

In other less-blatantly-obvious news, I’ve tweaked the “About Me” page a bit, bringing it up to date (I’m no longer in anticipation of this year’s fall semester, for example) and played around with the site’s URLs so they actually make sense- now I have actual sub-folders and stuff like normal websites are supposed to have. (I think I missed that part in Website-Building 101. Actually, it may have something to do with the fact that I never took Website-Building 101.)

It still seems to me like people are disappearing from the internet. Every time I update my layout, I feel like there’s yet another dead link to remove from my “friends” list. And the process doesn’t get any more fun. I mean, I miss my friends, and I like having active blogs where I can comment. (Hint, hint- if you visit but don’t comment- or even if you’re a first time visitor- drop a comment! I like knowing who my visitors are and I like making friends even more!) I wish there was still that close-knit sort of feeling that there was when I was still part of the Warriors community.

Now, for the sake of length and interest, it’s time to introduce something completely unrelated. So a few months ago (or a year or so, I’ve lost track) my grandmother introduced a TV show to one of my cousins. Slowly, the TV show spread, and now my entire family (my extended family, that is) is pretty much hooked on this TV show. This TV show happens to be NCIS, which is pretty much awesome. And I don’t watch much TV, so that’s really saying something. Sadly, the individual who seems to be most addicted to this show is my sister. She literally will not shut up about it. It’s getting sort of irritating- two days ago, I bet her that she couldn’t go five minutes without mentioning NCIS. She scoffed at me- of course she could, she said. She couldn’t. Really, though, it is a good show. Does anyone else watch it?

Also related to television, last Sunday, because everyone was snowed in, all the Superbowl parties were canceled. So instead, my sister and I drove up the street to my friend’s house for a masculine Superbowl party. So my friend, her sister, my sister and I (all of whom, for the record, are female) partied like men, scarfed down an entire pan of brownies and a two-liter bottle of Coke, acted like we knew exactly what we were watching (okay, so now they’re lining up at the blue line, and now they threw it, and now they’re running and that guy just got tackled and HOLY CRUD did he just do a flip?!?! and…) and pretended to care about football. It was pretty fabulous. And that is my amazing snowed-in Superbowl story.
