I realize that I have been awful lately when it comes to posting. Rest assured, my blog has not been the sole victim of my malaise. I've been procrastinating with papers, art projects, housework, work, and just about anything that requires motivation.
I don't seem to have any.
It's not that I'm unhappy, I'm not. I'm still happy overall, I'm still madly in love, intending to get married, finishing up school and all that jazz. I think I'm suffering from extreme burn out. I dislike my job, I'm tired of school...how much text book reading, research, paper writing, test taking, graded art projects, and commuting can one person do in 2 and a half years? Well, whatever the quantity, I fear I have reached my limit.
I think this is one of the reasons I've been 'obsessing' (2x4's word) about changing my blog skin. I need to eke out inspiration from wherever I can.
So...I bring you the new look.
It's a little plain and simple, but hey, so am I!
See that blank margin on the right? I wanna put some of my artwork and such over there. Eventually I'll figure out this damn html stuff enough to do just that. For now, I'll try to be inspired by the subtle turquoise margins.
I have to jet off to my humbling job right now, but I intend to do a post within the next day or two about my internship, so please come back. I know I've been neglecting my limited faithful readers.
Oh, and this blog skin change thing only happened because of the advice I got from commenters. I seriously had no idea where to begin. I found this skin on Blogskins.com. They have LOTS of stuff. Thanks, shpprgrl! (she recommended them).

Knowing what I know, I'd say you're neither plain nor simple...and your new digs? I love what you've done with the place!! :)
Nice! I like the new look. Don't worry about the malaise. It sounds like you have a lot going on in real time. Sometimes it's difficult to keep up. I think I burned out a long time ago!
Love the new skins, dahling! Less is more, and I cannot wait to see some of your artwork appear!
WOW! I LOVE the new skin! It's the best trifecta of vertical lineage that I've seen online! Kudos!
I like it too! And I commend you for being able how to figure out how to change one of these things! I consider myself pretty tech savvy, but I just have a feeling that I would mess this up.
Change is cathartic, even small ones. =-) Looks good!
It looks great. I had that blogging shock when I got here like...where am I? Isn't it funny how a change makes you lost? The colors are very nice. I also can't wait to see your art in that sidebar!
I'm glad to know you're back and all is well. This is a busy time for everyone.
