525,600 minutes, how do you measure a year

My how time flies. I went to my blog today and noticed, low and behold, that I hadn’t updated it in over a year (15 months to be more exact) and a lot certainly has happened in that year.

Blog Updated

Well I’ve upgraded my blog again. It was a bigger ordeal then usual because I had to actually do a fresh install and then reimport the data, but it was explained well and it took barely any time to accomplish it. Lots of nifty new features. I don’t think I care for the built-in gallery,...
