Making things "new"

This is the last time Blogger says it will let me in without switching to the "new Blogger". I really like this one. I know how to use it. I don't have to think. But now they are going to force me to change. I can't handle change right now. I just recently set up a Google Reader account to try and keep me posted on new blog updates. I don't even have that set up the way I need it yet. And of course the new Mac, forcing me to think backwards (or something) when I try to close a window. Don't get me wrong, I like it, but it takes some getting used to. I have been invited to the new j blog at Wordpress, but I'm not jumping into that yet either. I don't like what I've seen of it so far, and am not prepared for the immersion method. (Obviously I'll have to deal with Blogger or Wordpress or something if I'm going to keep blogging.) (That's a whole nother issue). And just in case you thought that was all, Yahoo! keeps pushing their new version of mail. I tried it for 3 minutes once and HATED it, so I went back. But I suppose they will be forcing me to change soon too. The world should know better than to try and change me during hibernation season.

In other news, at least I finished my Adult Programs brochure yesterday at work, so I feel greatly relieved. And I finally finished putting away Christmas decorations today, so that's another relief. Whew.

I tried logging into my old blogger account, and I finally gave up. I didn't realize that google had taken over blogger, and I have to say, that completely freaked me out. I think they're trying to be another Microsoft and take over the world. So I guess that means I'm glad I stopped using blogger.
I LOVE wordpress. It feels like I have a million blogs (I have nine) but wordpress is set up pretty neat so that you can switch from blog to blog really easily. Join us! Join us! You know you want to. Plus you can transfer your blogger account to wordpress pretty easily.
Oh and I hate the new yahoo email system too. I don't like using it either.
I just got a new computer at work and I spent the whole day trying to get my work email to work again as well as trying to figure out Word 2007 so that I could get out a story time poster.
...BTW I want to get back to Webster to see how REAL librarians (not me) do story times, so I'll have to stop over, maybe I'll be able to convice you to move to wordpress. :)

Sometimes I can't decide if I love or hate computers.
