Bloggus Interruptus

SIGH. I have the hardest time finding an appropriately-themed blog template for this time of year that I like. If you've actually been checking in even though I don't post often enough to make it worth your while, you've noticed that this is, like, my third design in as many weeks. And still, me no likes. Stupid winter. It's a creative template wasteland!

New Layout

Is the new 'spring' layout, like, nauseatingly girly? I'm on the fence.

Fugly!

Dang. Every time I try and update the template it turns out looking like ass! Crap. Give me a bit to tweak the site... hopefully, it'll look better by Monday or Tuesday. Until then - sorry!

AAAAAAAAAARGH!!!

Please excuse my current retarded layout. Trying to take advantage of my office mate-free day, I tried to update my layout with something a bit more Halloween-y. Of course, trying to be stealthy I was doing things in a rush and forgot to save my previous template before entering in new code. Now my widgets are all screwed up and GRRRR! I'm just irritated. Hopefully, I'll get things ironed out quickly. Until then, try to look past my blog's ugly facade! :o(

More Formatting Issues

All right, people - I'm bored. I get bored with my blogger templates really quickly and want to change it up a bit. However, my posts are in a wide variety of colors and, depending on the background color of the template I choose, some do no show up as well as others. (Because I get bored, I like making each post have its own color... spices up the page a bit.) As such, I am forced to go back and change the color of, like, 65% of my posts when I change templates. Therefore, I've made a decision: I'm going to be a stick in the mud and make all of my posts the same boring color. I know, it's a bit of a bummer but I feel like I have no other choice in the matter.

I will start re-coloring my posts today and, because I'm anal, I'll probably be done by tomorrow morning. Still, I apologize in advance for the ho-hum-i-ness of my post colors... I will do my best to choose fun backgrounds that are good eye candy. :o)

Okay, seriously? This is a bitch and a half!!! Forget it... I got to mid-February and I gave up. You'll just have to struggle through and love me with and without color-coded posts!! GAH!!

JUST KIDDING!!! Oh. My. God. I was the stupidest person alive and picked a shade of blue that does not come out at all on the new template... I hate myself!!! Bear with me as I change the font to black ever so slowly... :o( Mew for me.

Formatting Issues

I have been working for a while now to get this stupid new template to look right in Internet Explorer. Well, I've finally decided to give up - it's exasperating!! - so I thought I'd just give you all a heads-up that the blog looks stupid in IE and looks like it's supposed to in Firefox. I've fiddled with the darn code as much as I know how (which is so little it's not measurable with existing technology, let me tell you) and the code is right - it's just doesn't translate correctly in IE. I have a subheading under the title which reads "Wonder No More About the Minutiae of Our Daily Lives!" When viewed with Firefox, the subheading is its proper size - about half that of "Lauren & Robert's Boring Blog." When viewed in IE, it's frickin' HUGE and doesn't even fit on the page. So, in case you're all thinking "Damn! Lauren's retarded!" just know - it's not me, it's you. You're using the wrong browser!! :o) Just FYI.
