well, the moment has finally come friends: i will be leaving the lay-c.com domain... but, of course, i will always be a part of the fam-lay. my blog can now be found at:
i still don't know what this means for the future of my blogging. maybe i won't continue blogging forever... but for the time being, i'm at least going to leave home (domain) for the first time and try something new (word press). lacey will always be my blog mom, of course, and it's not like i'm exactly gaining true blogging independence here -- thus far, i've been on lacey's domain, and now i'll be on a domain that technically belongs to greg and me, but that is completely and totally managed by greg. i have no idea how to maintain it, and i couldn't if i tried. hence, not so much independence.
but i'm hoping that using word press will be easier and faster than using movable type, as movable type is not the most user-friendly way to blog. and i'm also thinking that lacey will finally be free of one of her little blog-lings, and that should make her life a little easier. (i'll be harassing greg with my blog problems from now on -- i mean, he actually migrated my blog content from one domain to the other in the first place).
also, i'm thinking it's time to finally join the adult world and start capitalizing normally. i'm working at a law firm this summer, and all the emails i write must be properly capitalized, so i'm really getting in the habit. i'm also realizing that i just don't feel as passionate about non-capitalizing (at least not *all* the time) these days, particularly since i'm now starting to notice that it makes paragraphs harder to read and skim through (i really never thought so before, but i'm starting to think so now). i've always believed in punctuating and spelling correctly, so perhaps it's now time to start capitalizing correctly as well. ah, it's a bit sad, but i think this is another way to move on.
so, without further ado, please join me for correct capitalization and word press fun on my new site:
See y'all there!

HUZZAH! Congrats on the your independence, Nazzy!
Posted by: george at June 26, 2007 10:34 AMThis is hilarious. Probably the first time a new blog has boasted improved capitalization. I hear WordPress is easier to use than MT. I bet you'll dig it.
Posted by: Andrew at June 26, 2007 05:23 PMDon't think of it as not being independant. Think of it as Greg taking care of the boring digital details. I mean at some point we all draw the line at what we all do by ourselves. There is only so much time.
Posted by: Mykgerard at June 27, 2007 01:18 PMThat's right. I'm with Myk on this. Outsourcing to Hungarian tech types is OK. It doesn't mean you're not independent, just means you know how to delegate.
