A college girlfriend of mine once tried to explain my inability to make decisions by pointing out that a) I am a Pisces, and b) that all Pisces are wafflers, and c) that waffling is therefore the fate dealt to me by the cosmos and totally beyond my control.
Which is all well and good, except that the day I offer up astrology as an explanation for my character flaws will be the day that I will officially consider myself to have hit rock bottom. And so, I will continue to apologetically waffle in full admission that it is All My Fault For Sucking So Bad.
Anyway, as always, feedback is welcome on the new, wider layout (does it make me look fat?) and what my logo ought to be (my mother suggests "an ink-splattered pigeon", which is such a complete non sequitur that it might actually cross right over the line into ironic brilliance).
Also: As you might have noticed, you can now officially
And, lest anyone feel that this post is somehow sub-par for lacking the usual weirdness that my readers have come to expect, allow me to leave you with the following tidbit:
Brad has been using my razor and deodorant. I know this, because his armpits smell like my armpits, and my armpits smell like a man's face.

Long lines of text are strenuous to read. I think the font size could be a bit bigger, too.
Open up a random book and compare line lenght and font size to your layout.
I actually prefer this layout to the one before. I'm lazy and dislike scrolling, and your blog postings are not so long as to give us eye strain just because the lines are a bit longer.
I also very much liked the the header that you had before. You could always take a picture of yourself, similar to the other one, spackled in ink and looking shocked and confused. That picture would pretty much sum up the Murphy's Law governed life that you depict in your blog. Plus it incorporates ink
I should perhaps add that your layout is relative to the visitor's monitor resolution or browser width. So in a resolution like 1600, the lines are pretty long.
As for fonts and crap like that, play with this: http://www.typetester.org
I like what you had, but I'm all for change. I think that's apparent when my clients that I see every 3-5 weeks never know what my hair is going to look like when they come in, and they have just accepted that at this point. But what can I say? I'm a pices too. I don't offer that as an excuse either, but that is a bit odd that fickleness (is that a word?) is a pices trait.
I think I need more coffee. Sadly, it took me reading that last line of your post like 3 times before I got it.
I was like, why is Kat rubbing her face in Brad's armpits? Is this a new form of territorial scent marking married couples are doing on the east coast and it's only a matter of time before it makes its way here?
Coffee. must get more coffee...
i really enjoy the new layout. AND your mother is a genius. sometimes, moms do know best... but not my mom.
I don't know whether to think it's good or bad that a commenter named "Motherfucker" knows more about site design than me.
