I'm Moving!
Ok, no, not that kind of move. I am still staying in Columbus, Ohio. But I have decided to move to Blogger! That's right--no more Livejournal!

Fabulously in the City

I dream of life in the city, so I decided to go with the name "Fabulously in the City". Why "Fabulously" and not just fabulous? Because it wasn't available. Heh. AND because I want to show how we all can be living fabulously in the city. I like the sense of urgency when there are assumed verbs. It's not grammatically correct, but I like it and I'm sticking with it.

But, don't fret, I'm not entirely getting rid of LJ. I will certainly keep it for its true purpose--as an online journal. I will read my friends' entries and I will definitely write some of my own. But the majority of the things I post on here are commentary on politics, society, relationships, sexuality and plenty of other non-journal-like entries. I want to continue with this tradition, but I want to move to a new medium for a variety of reasons:

-Zschechfan is hard as hell to spell (and SO outdated--I'm frickin' Atheist! I can't have a SN with a Christian singer!)
-I don't like the setup of LJ
-I want a host with easier commenting features.

So here are the URLs:

Fabulously in the City

www.fabulouslyinthecity.com

fabulouslyinthecity.blogspot.com

Check it out. I have made a few updates already which should be indicative of how I will maintain the blog. It will be a mixture of Columbus news, politics, sexuality, city events, city planning, gay news, religious rants and of course, an outlet for my many strange anecdotes I've accrued over the years.

Favorite it! Read it often! Comment, too! :-)

*EDIT*

When I installed Haloscan, the commenting feature that lets anyone comment, it messed up the layout...so it doesn't look right. Oh well! I'll fix it once when they get back to me...

I'll still post on here, but only personal entries. So no more didactic political rants! :-)

Besides, how hard is it to add my other site to your favorites? ;-)

click on your blog's dashboard, go to settings, then the "site feed" tab, the chose the "allow blog feeds" .. that should put an icon on your blog (a little red square with the letters "RSS" on it) that is a link for people to copy into their blog reader, in my case, Outlook 2007.

Well apparently I can link my other blog and this one...so maybe they won't be gone so easily. Commenting is actually really easy at my other blog, so I guess that'd be the only different--I'd disable comments here and have them over there?

Hmm. I dunno. I'm still getting it all worked out. :-)

I love the new blog, Christopher! You need to upload that awesome Tokyo picture of yours as its wallpaper. Or the zillions of other really kickass cityscape pictures you have. Hey, maybe even a cool picture of Dayton! ^_^

Dayton? What's that? Is that a small Indian Tribe or something?

Get the hell out. I grew up about 20 mins from there, just north of Lisbon. Crestview schools, Leetonia address, Columbiana telephone number. HAHA....where do you live now?
