Thesis

Posted by: pcloeb on: 06/02/2008

So I’ve decided to join WordPress.  I’ve had blogs in other places but I feel like WordPress will give me much more flexibility to integrate blogging software on my own computer.  Primarily, I will use this as a general life and blog site with a general theme of focusing on completing my “101 Things in a 1001″ days.  I also still intend to complete my 10 years project but in probably a less intensive manner compared to the one I started over in LiveJournal. 

 I hope this will be a much more centralized place to keep track of my comings and goings for friends and family and anyone else who might stumble upon this little corner of the internet.
