The Blog is Back (For Now…)

So my blog is back. Apparently the people I host through (Dreamhost) automatically upgraded me to the new Wordpress and forgot to switch over a file, causing my blog to crash. The previous sentence makes absolutely no sense to me yet I think it’s correct. See, that’s my problem. I have absolutely no idea how to run a website like this. It involves code, upgrading things, and all kinds of stuff that is waaaay over my head. Right now, I don’t know how to even check who visits this site anymore. I also can’t post videos on here because it messes up the page.
I also hate that my name is tied to this blog. If you do a Google search of my name, you can find this thing. That doesn’t bode well when you work with clients or have family members who are learning how to search the internet more. I mean, I have a great story about buying a jock strap that I’d love to write about on here, but I know that a quick search from anyone would yield a website of person they (hopefully) respect talking about his balls. That’s just not good.
So I’m going to look into moving this site to a more user-friendly place and possibly do it in a way that keeps me unsearchable. I may move it to Wordpress.com. Who knows, I may revert to Blogger. Either way, I just want something simple and hasslefree that will let me do some new things that I haven’t done before. And, honestly, the thought of doing that is pretty exciting.
