Testing Windows Live Writer
So basically here, I am just posting up a small little nonsensical post to test out how Windows Live Writer works.
Supposedly it will post here to my site from a standalone program and everything will work out smoothly. I guess we will have to see.
Oh, as a side note, my book that I created using the Blurb site should arrive in via UPS tomorrow! I am excited to see how it will turn out. It was an added bonus since it wasn’t supposed to even be ready to ship until tomorrow, which would have meant an arrival of sometime next week!
I’ll keep ya posted!
Musician and an Author?
So I have been home sick with some sort of flu for the last 3 days, which has been boring as all get-out. But today I ventured into a little program I had downloaded back in June called Blurb.
Blurb is a pretty cool company where you can create your own books and then have them published in either hard or soft cover and then put them up for sale online, which is pretty sweet.
Anyway I have not yet had a chance to mess around with this program until today. I figured that since I had nothing much else to do besides coping with the flu, I would put together my first little book.
It is titled “Back Roads and Side Streets”, and it includes a very random smattering of photos that I have taken over the last couple of years. It isn’t a lengthy book at all, a mere 28 pages, however I think it turned out fairly well considering I only put one afternoon into it and didn’t really lay anything out before hand. My copy will be arriving in about a week and a half, so I am pumped to see how they turned out.

Lacking words…
I guess you could say that lately I have been a bit quite here.
Not that I haven’t had a million thoughts go through my mind about different things that I wanted to write about here, but I just have not had the ambition to write for a little bit.
Of course now that I have the ambition I need, my mind is void of all of those great thoughts that I had wanted to get to. Instead it is mostly a cloudy haze of discomfort due to what seems to be a bout with a flu of some sort. It is kind of strange and basically as long as I am not moving around much I feel at least somewhat ok, however when I get up and move around at all I start feeling like I am going to..well, nevermind.
Being sick sucks…..
