Still alive!

I’m still alive, just busy is all. It’s that time of year when Jess is working 80 hour weeks (no exaggeration) so I’m staying pretty busy just trying to cook/clean/work/etc while she’s gone. One of the big things I’ve been spending my time doing is cooking/baking and I was thinking about making a second blog… this one being normal, and the other a “food blog” of sorts. I figure it will be used to share recipes, talk about whatever cooking shows/tips/etc I come across, restaurant reviews, and other stuff like that. I’ve begun designing it in the little spare time I have:
I don’t think it’s that bad for a start. My goal is to launch it in early January and see where it goes from there. Also, on that same note, I think I’ll update this site design a little bit. I liked it at first, but I really am thinking it needs a slight overhaul. We’ll see if/when I find the time to do that. Busy, busy, busy!
Oh, and on a completely different subject, this blog is now running WordPress 2.7 RC1! There are some slight visual changes between the beta and the release candidate, but I like ‘em! Go check it out for yourself!!
