Now that my final exams are behind me, I am re-focusing my energy on cleaning and organizing, well, everything!
I am notoriously disastrous when it comes to keeping up with, well, just about everything, so, I have to force myself to get organized. When I do, I’m so happy. Like deliriously happy. Then I always end up saying to myself, “why didn’t I do that sooner?” So, here I am again, doing the same routine, trying to organize and clean-up my spaces.
Now that I’m a proud new young fresh blogger I’ve gone and added yet another thing for me to have to organize, my online stuff! Ugh. Oh, well, better dig in, not getting any younger here.
So, I decided to tackle some WordPress organizing. Since they say that your blog is like your living room, I figured I’d start there (or here, rather, ahem, onward with the tutorial!) So, into the WordPress Codex I went, head first and hoping for the best. And, not to disappoint me, they have great resources, lots of resources. So many in fact I could probably start a blog just to talk about everything WordPress… haha, there I go again adding work for myself.
Anyway, I ran across this video tutorial and thought it gave an excellent explanation of content maps. You know that thing you carry around with you telling you where you’re supposed to go instead of wandering around exploring everything and then complaining that you’re never getting anything done? Yup, that one!
I, tragically, made some of those organizing mistakes that he talks about, so I too will be joining you in revising my site to reflect those more logical structures. Now I know why those developers hate us so much. We literally cause their brains “does not compute” errors. Oops, sorry about that guys!
Welcome to Lucky Post: No. 19 – Gaga For Molly Lewis.
Today I have a great video for you in honor of my 19th post. (19 is my lucky number.) And today, I’ll share that luck with you.
I started doing a Just For Fun post on Friday’s but I couldn’t wait for Friday to post this video. I found it waiting for me in my Google Reader today courtesy of Wil Wheaton (pronounced with a heavy emphasis on the ‘h’, courtesy of Stewie ala Family Guy) who posted it to his blog. (Wil is famous for Star Trek: The Next Generation‘s Wesley Crusher character)
Wil is a full-blown nerd, and proud of it. And he is very creative, and has very creative friends, like Molly Lewis. They performed together at wOOtstock 1.1 in LA recently, to riotous nerd laughter (seriously the guy who recorded the podcast was near a crazy loud nerd who did the whole snorting laughter thing, and LOUD!). These are serious nerds, who take their nerding seriously. (Don’t mess with them or they might decide to rewrite the code to the internet and you won’t ever see your precious Twitter updates or Facebook feeds again. “Muah, muah, muah.”)
Molly is crazy funny. And hot, in that weirdly nerdy way. Also fun!
So, since funny came early this week, you get the Just for Fun post today. It’s now your lucky day too. Enjoy!
Molly Lewis does clever cover of Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face.”
This is creative quality in action. Watch out world, this is your new competition. You should be afraid. Very afraid.
This post is what I will call a “Just for Fun Fridays” post. I will hopefully be serious and helpful every other day, but on Fridays I hope to start doing something silly, just because.
If there is anything that I’ve learned over the years when it comes to work it’s this: take it serious, but know when to relax! I think it’s very important to work really hard…most of the time. Then there’s those times when you just need to chill out. Relax. Take a break. Laugh at something funny. Life is too short to be a stick in the mud.
So, in this post, I’ve got a whopper for you. As some of you may know I’m a huge Star Wars fan. As you may not know, I love to sing. Mostly, the singing happens in my car, while I’m blissfully alone. I can hardly imagine seeing myself singing a Capella, without instruments, but I love the sound of it.
So, this post is a video post showing a hilarious a Capella tribute to John Williams, the composer of such films as Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Superman, Jaws, Jurassic Park, and ET. Basically, a whole bunch of my favorite films and my favorite film music scores.
I told you recently in my Philosophy post that when I was a child I loved to build Legos. Well, I came across this amazing video when I was reading in my Google Reader and I loved it so much that I wanted to share it with you. This is a wonderful example of creativity [...]
I have just learned that Harry Potter’s World of Wizarding is coming to Universal Orlando in Spring 2010. This is awesome news! Anyone want to come with me to see the opening? Until next time. Peace. -Ryan.
