elcome back to the newly redesigned journal. People (i.e. Mary and Molly) have been giving me shit about never updating. But then I was overwhelmed with the amount of updates that I would have to do to get caught up. So I just kept putting it off and putting it off. And then I was like, "Wouldn't it be cool if I could postdate my entries?" And there's probably a way to do that in Greymatter, but I've been meaning to move my journal over to Moveable Type for a while so that I could have the whole site on one system. And this seemed like a good excuse.

Anyway, in reading back through my entries, I realize that way too many of them start with, "Wow, it's been a long time since I've done an entry. Sorry about that!" So no more. I'm not saying I'm going to update any more often. I'm just saying that I won't apologize for it. It's like a Guess? jeans ad over here.

There are definitely going to be a few bugs in this time of transition. One cool new feature is that you can leave comments on my journal entries, much like you can on my weblog posts. Just click the link at the bottom of each entry that says "Holler back" and type in whatever you want to say. I'm finally caught up to 1995 in terms of interactivity.

I'm also working on moving my notify list locally so that I don't have to deal with the whims of whatever ads various notify-list software companies decide to put on their e-mails. So look for that fairly soon.

There's something goofy where none of my pictures are showing up on past entries. I don't know what's up with that. Oh, and I've only imported entries back to January 2001, but I'm working on getting them all in here eventually. I have to do the older ones by hand, which is a pain, but I want them all in one place.

So I'll be backdating some entries to fill you in one what's been going on while I've been gone. Join the notify list (see the subscription box in the sidebar there) if you want to know when new entries are posted.

"Yeah, we tease him a lot 'cause we've got him on the spot, welcome back. Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back."
