Well, it’s like this.

I have a blog, over on blogger.  And I liked it a lot.  I fed it and kept it warm (not very clean, though) and have over two years and 2,000 posts invested in it.

Then I heard about wordpress, and bought a domain name (rented, actually) and paid for some server space and here I am.

I thought: should I start clean, a whole new blog, or should I bring my old messages over? (not sure how long Blogger keeps things around once you quit using them).  So I chose to “import posts” from blogger.  It’s an option on WordPress, really.

But apparently there is something up with my blog, and it’s taking for. ev. er. to import the posts.  So I’ll work on it a bit at a time, but until I get it done and put my old blog back up in readable fashion (it won’t be pretty, but it will be readable) I don’t really feel like fixing up the New Blog. (I may have found a fix, or a partial one, we’re up to October 04 now!)  The old blog was such a hit with Google that I hate to just abandon it.And now, it’s all here!  And there was much rejoicing.

Any questions?

May 15: I now have a Flickr gallery in the sidebar (testing it to see if I like it), added a statcounter (invisible), found a half dozen comments stuck in a spam filter (oops).  So much to see!
