Blogging is Hard!

You know, I had forgotten how hard it is (shut it, okay?) to blog every half hour. By the time you've got one post done, you've got to turn around and make another one. Throw in uploading and linking files and it's a race, especially since the whole time I'm thinking, "Okay, what am I going to talk about now?"

Can I just say that I *heart* Firefox? I've been using it for at least a year or so, but only recently have I started using tabbed browsing a lot. It is the best thing ever. Totally makes it easier for me to keep all my windows (one tab - current post, old post with the info that I copy into the bottom, and Amazon; another tab - Blogathon pages and blogs; a third - my mail) straight. Since I have like a million pages open at all times, it makes my geeky little life a little easier.

Next download it one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite soundtracks ever, Twister. It's the next choice because it was right above Marilyn Manson, the last download. Don't ever say my music tastes aren't eclectic.

Mark Knopfler - Darling Pretty (Like it? Then buy the CD.)


This is one of forty-eight posts that I am making, every half hour for twenty-four hour straight, to raise money for Heifer International by participating in this year's Blogathon. Please sponsor me if you can.
