Blank Slate

I know that I was overly eager to get settled in to my new home, but I guess there is something to be said about not being OVERWHELMED with color. After spending the last three days and anticipating the next 5 weeks in a kindergarten classroom, this page could not be clean enough. Staring at the muted grays and whites of movable type as opposed to the blinding orange and dark blue (okay.not blinding. just disturbing.UVA, anyone?) of my previous home, I feel a sense of calm. Rare, rare, rare for me. And boring, boring, boring for you all. Spring Break tomorrow. I will YIPP PPEEE at 1:00. 16 hours 15 minutes and counting.

I've always said that calm is good. But YIPP PPEEE is better!

Wahoo! NO LIGHT BLUE TEXT! Nice new site...May I ask what mu.nu is and why you were invited to join?

SC,

Don't worry, the YIPP PPEEE is coming! I'm off to work and when I get back, well, I don't know, I'm so excited, but I'll probably just fall down from exhaustion!

H,

Don't be mad, but I'll probably do the same look here! I promise that I will go in and change it so I don't hurt your eyes. I noticed that the whole sidebar was light blue. Oops.

You need the old blog colour scheme - otherwise you ain't gonna win prettiest blog.

A,

Don't worry about it. I'll just read your blog with my shades on. :)
