It started innocently enough. Last night, at about 10:00 pm with the kids asleep and a little time on my hands, I decided to muck around with the css for this site. By 11:00 pm I was modifying templates and completely redesigning the side bar options. This afternoon, I tweaked a little more here and there and threw an image in the top left corner. The results are before you, unless I've gone and messed things up a little more between the writing of this entry and the time you read it.
My objective was to create a little more white space and clean things up somewhat. I felt a colour change was in order, so I ran with TTC rocket red. In order to make things a little more user friendly, you can search the archives from every page and jump to any month since I started the blog back in November 2002. I'm still migrating old entries over to Movable Type, so you won't find November and December 2005 quite yet.
I've received a couple of notes from people who miss the old look. My mom, however, likes the new one. Of course, she's my mom and might be telling me what I want to hear, so I need you to give me honest feedback in the comments.
In the words of the immortal Dr. Johnny Fever, give it to me straight doctor I can take it.
