I am fan-fucking-tatically excited! The holiday to Greece is in 8 more days, and then 14 days of paradise.

Another Day in Paradise. (Phil Collins)

So far, I’m still hesistant about converting to wordpress. Since I just sort of changed up The Fungus Cave a bit (notice, now there is a separate PhotoBlog, please visit) and I’ve come to terms with this minimalistic yet funky layout with the roating header images which I always fall for. So, I’ll just leave this in wordpress for a while more… a decade.. century, who knows? XD

This blog is still as dead as ever, and I got no clue how to deal with it :/ It’s annoying but whatever. I’m just going to blog my thoughts here and hope something magical happens (I’m just going to comments on toher people’s blogs which I like a lot and see if they reply :-)).

I went ahopping today. I PROMISE I’ll take photos of the stuff I bought (excluding the Lingerie *ahem*) and I’ll stick ‘em up here

Anyways, it’s late and I’m off to bed.

So I recently discovered this new (sort of) content management tool (hereof referred to as ‘CMS’) called ‘ExpressionEngine’ (now abbreviated ‘EE’) which caught my attention because the catch phrase on the front page was something like ‘Say hello to the most flexible web publishing system you’ll ever meet’ which really did get my attention, since I have such a problem coding a wordpress theme - it’s so bloody hard to understand the syntax, for me, and I just can’t push myself enough to really get into it. I mean, I see so many others relishing their wordpress themes and showing off their awesome skills (which I furiously envy) and I just feel lousy because here I am with a goddamn premade theme. Don’t get me wrong, it saves time and it’s easy, premades were meant for someone to use anyway but I just don’t like the feel of looking at my blog and seeing that I didn’t code any of it, I mean HELLO I’M TRYING TO PIMP MY PORTFOLIO AND GIVE OUT A MESSAGE THAT I’M PRETTY DAMN DECENT AT GRAPHIC/WEB DESIGN and here I am… with a premade.

Back to the point, so this EE sounds quite impressing - have a look at it yourself. I haven’t tried it yet, but I’m contemplating it (mainly because I saw what an awesome layout/theme it was on at sunshined.org) - I think I might download the free core version and sift through the thing to see if it isn’t too hard to bend to my will, if that is the case I might just be banishing wordpress from my sight (maybe not completely) and I bet if Wordpress had a voice, it would be saying “I think I need to go to a Doctor, so I can get the knife removed from my back.”

C’est la vie.
