Welcome. I think.

Well, here we are. I say “I think” up there because I’m not entirely confident that I’ve got the kinks worked out to the extent that I should be letting people look at what I’ve done here. I mean, I know for a fact that there’s some wonky shit happening downpage — scroll and take a look — and I am having no luck figuring out why some posts are bleeding into others and why my damn manual line breaks are not working and bumping the text down below the photos like they’re supposed to. I don’t know, and if I can’t figure it out on my own, I’m sure I’ll go groveling to some of my fancy web-developer friends. You kids with your programming languages. You disgust me.

Anyway, let’s all wave goodbye to the blogspot-era T&G pictured below:

goodbye, faithful blogspot blog

As you can see, my crush on Helvetica Neue 25 Ultra Light continues unabated. There’s just something about that typeface that makes me breathe a little heavy when I see it. You type nerds know what I’m talking about. I’m pretty excited to be typing body text in Verdana, too. I’m not sure why I didn’t switch to it sooner. And check out that justification! I can’t decide if I like it, though. Maybe that’s what’s causing all those muff-ups below.

So my master plan — it’s so important that I’ve got it scrawled on a sticky note — is to flesh out the domain and have a professional corner and a photography corner and some other corners I can’t think of right now because I can’t find my damn sticky note. (Right now if you go to theogeo.com you’ll get a very rude 403 error. My apologies for both there being an error page there — I’ve yet to build an index page — and for how curt it is. The world and the internet could use less of that rude shit.) This place could end up a proper website, if I do it up right. Or it could end up like this hot mess right here (warning, there is sound — hideous, hideous sound). We’ll just have to see.

  1. I like the new digs. For what’s it worth, it looks good in my standard Mac/Firefox combo, but just about everything does, really…

  2. I like it. You’ve grown up so fast. *sniffle*

    I personally think stoves are just accidents waiting to happen. Harumph. Hee. Squirt. Mmmph.

  3. Oh, and are those little orange vaginas or little orange hot dogs? Just wondering which way this site’s swinging…

  4. Thanks, y’all! Glad you guys like it.

    A-Rod, I naively thought they looked like little orange segments. Delicious, non-perverted orange segments. Squirt indeed.

  5. WANT. I love this!

    And I think that sometimes they look like laughing lips, and sometimes they look like hot dogs.

  6. A little something for everyone. Including the Red Cross, now that I’m noticing the cross pattern between the vagina-dog-oranges.

  7. Verdana has always been my favorite font. I hate when “the man” tells me I have to use Arial. It’s the poor man’s Helvetica. Or the rich man’s Helvetica, actually since it’s the Windows version. Anyhoo. I’m finally getting around to adding this feed on my flist. Yay!

    Seriously, there’s a Charlotte Church show in the UK where she sings, does a monologue a la Jay Leno and then painfully talks to guests (a la Jay Leno). I need to YouTube it.
