MJfM version 2.0
As you can see, changes abound. My picture has returned, I have a new layout, and I have a new logo-header type thing.
And I hate all of it right now.
You see, I wanted to do it all at once and be done with it, but I screwed up and posted the changes by accident because I was doing it at 1:15am last night instead of sleeping so I could get up and go to work and all. So now I'm stuck with a somewhat broken layout that it turns out has to be fixed by replacing 500,000 different little tiny elements on the page. And the only way to be sure they all work is trial and error.
Thank jeebus restaurants don't work like HTML coding does. You'd be getting a steak that tastes like it's been rubbed on a salt lick when you first order. Then they'd be like, "sorry, that's not quite right," and then bring one coated in honey. That would taste like crap, so they'd bring one drenched in A-1 Sauce. But you don't like A-1 and end up getting just a plain old steak with nothing on it. But then it's undercooked. Once you finally get it, you don't care how it tastes anymore, you just want it to be over with.
That's exactly the way editing a blog template works. My advice to you is to pay somebody else to do it if the urge ever strikes you. Like a "release" at the massage parlor, some things are worth the extra expense. Just a little tip from me to you.
While I'm busy tearing out hair follicles over this crap, you guys can try to figure out which images you recognize in the header. There's something in there for everyone, after all. Enjoy.
The 1 a.m. Edit: It's looking much better than it was. I'd say it's version 2.05 right now. Still not 2.1, but nobody's perfect, right? You'll get the director's cut super extended DVD edition tomorrow night, I think. I'm too tired to continue and I'll probably just break something else if I don't stop now. That white sidebar is driving me completely insane, though. UGH.

Dog, on the real tip, you look fucking massive in the new profile pic. Could never understand why you went with sneakers when you packing the guns of the Navaron.
And because you know I could not leave without saying it:
I do good work.

that is a hot ass template. HOT ASS.
Liz, I never can tell if you're making fun of me. I'm going to assume it's a compliment and leave it at that.
Natalia, I'm a graphic designer. It's my job to fuss over these sorts of things.
Dreamweaver.
(I just wanted to send you into a fit of rage)
not making fun. im not always sarcastic. (not always)
i really do like the template. (ew, sincerity is so...sticky sweet)
Yeah, sincerity is so early '90s.
Holly, Dreamweaver sucks. We all know this. Using it is like giving yourself a lobotomy.
