Thank you Meredith via Cassandra...

...for introducing me to Scrapblog. I'm not sure whether I really think it is the coolest thing since sliced bread or whether I'm just enjoying something new that takes me away from my research. Facebook just doesn't do it anymore... I actually had a fleeting thought to create more blogs just so I could make more of these things!

As you can see, my blog has a new look...that I created at Scrapblog. It was so much fun. It took me some time to get used to it, but once I knew how everything worked, it was just a matter of getting it to suit my tastes.

My sister made a scrapbook ~8 years ago (at least) of which I was in awe. I always wanted to create a scrapbook but never got around to it. A while ago (several years) I actually bought a scrapbooking kit. Have I used it? Nope. I only got as far as opening it up. Part of the problem is these darn digital cameras. I take tons of pictures and never print any of them. Granted, I could use my old pictures, but...I don't know...I just haven't done it. I guess I'll have to make a scrapbooking date with myself.

I'm hoping the solution to my failure to scrapbook problem is Scrapblog. We'll have to see. I can already see a downside to this online scrapbooking...it kind of takes the fun away from dragging out your scrapbooking stuff, making a mess, and having to put it all up again. I've never actually done these things, but I can imagine it being like the Kindle; it takes away the enjoyment of feeling and smelling a real book. Or so I've heard.

Happy scrapbooking!
