Time for a turnaround

I know, I know, I haven’t blogged much.

And by much, I mean *at all*.

But that’s all going to change, soon. Here’s what needs to get done:

* Decorate for Christmas
* Upgrade to MT 3.1
* Integrate a better Linkblog/Blogmarks/Blinks with del.icio.us — I don’t like the default way it ships links off to your blog, I’m working on something more like Kottke’s remaindered links.
* Fix bugs in del.icio.us linkblog integration (continually posting the same entries)
* Migrate links from old posts, that I actually intended to post, to new linkblog
* Make future-proof, cruft-free URLs — I think I’m going to go with a slug for all future entries, and I’m also not fond of /archives … maybe /entries or /view…
* Move my non-blog pages to a seperate blog in MT.
* Create a drafts blog — in keeping with the openness and spirit of blogging, I thought it’d be cool to have a drafts blog (and accompanying RSS feed) so you could see what’s in the hopper. Might not be worth reading, but I think it’ll put the pressure on me to, you know, actually write something more than once a year.
* Start, you know, actually writing something in this space.
* Redesign — fixed, liquid, em-based, where she stops nobody knows!
* Add a “What am I up to” section — cool name pending, suggestions welcome.

Today sucks

Today America has spoken… it’s chosen moving backwards (or at best standing still).

It’s decided to throw its support behind a man — and let’s remember, that in this country, the president is just a man with an office that has a nice view of D.C. — who won’t take responsibility for his actions, who divides instead of uniting.

This country has, in many places, decided that bigotry is, and should be, a part of our national character.

I don’t know what to think.

Is this really the country that I live in.

Can those who obfuscate, confuse, and outright lie really win? Did America let this happen? Why?

Why is this country so afraid, and what do we really have to be afraid of?
