Lets get this out of the way first: I changed the layout of the page. I don’t know if I like it entirely. The change is primarily a response to a concern that that black on white lettering was tough on the eyes. The New York pictures are more a reflection of my longstanding homesickness.
If you like the new blog layout, hit the like button on facebook. If you don’t like it, leave a comment. See what I did there? It is harder and more time consuming to leave a comment than it is to jab the like button. I’m setting folks up to like the page or to dwell in their dislike silently. Gosh I feel like the government right now.
Change came to the page and change is coming to me with the opening of our local gym. I’m a guy who has spent very little time in gyms post-college, and now my body wants to let me know how bad that choice was. I’ll be talking about this more in a future blog–one where I start to tackle the idea of failure and how that is interpreted in modern (American) society. I’m not at that blog yet. I’m at the one where it is the saturday before I return to classes and I’m not entirely ready to return to classes.
