Yes, it was that time again. Time to change it up a lil bit. It's not dramatically different, but I'm going with a more simplistic, clean look.

My top header photos are still randomly displayed. This time I'm only including images that I've personally taken (sorry Seth). Ok, I have to take that back, I think there may be 1 or 2 taken by my wifey. Additionally, I still have my randomly rotating photo on the right margin as well. So far, they are the same as before, but I will be changing those soon, as well.

My navigation has also been relocated from the top to below the top image header. None of the options have changed, but those need to be updated as well to include new pages I've created and deletion of old links. We'll see when I can get to that.

After going with may different shades of grey and blue, I've decided to go with plain white. Maybe slightly boring, but I think it looks much cleaner. Besides, now I don't have to worry about the random border lines displaying in the middle of the screen when using Firefox.

Also notice that I've included Blogger's new "labels" feature. Each posting is given labels/keywords and can be used to appropriately categorize each posting and quickly makes those pages viewable.

So what do you think?

For some reason when I load Jame1030.com, Firefox tends to repeat the bottom border of the top panoramic image. I'm not sure why it does this, and it bothers the shit out of me, but I really don't have time to fix it.

At some point in the near future I'd like to give my site a complete revamp, but I'm thinking that may need to wait until after we get more stuff done in the house. Not that we'll be done with the house any time soon, but our weekends have been busy with getting our house together.

House update:
The house is great. We installed some new front garage lights. I used the recommended 100 watt bulbs, but I swear we were lighting up the whole damn street. It may be that our not all our neighbors have front lights yet. So that contributes to the darkness, but our lights were too damn bright. 60 watt'ers are much better... less blinding.

We finally got the 2nd guestbedroom cleared out and things have been separated into managable piles within the room. Unfortunately I think things will stay like that until we have to get it ready for my parents to come and visit in March.

One of my wifey's coworkers just moved into an apartment and had nothing but a bed and some lawn furniture. So it worked out well that he took both our couch and loveseat. While he was here, he did us a favor and helped clear out more furniture by taking the papazon, a cabinet, and an old television. I guess it all comes back around again. I remember being donated a ton of shit from friends and family when I first moved out. Now I get to pass my junk on to others.

So what else is going on?

We finally firmed up our dates for our trip to Orlando next month. It should be really fun! I'm finally going to meet some of her old friends, hopefully see Sam & Amy, my grandfather, and we're going to Disney! I haven't been there in years. I think I was still in high school when I went there last. So it should be so much fun.
