Blog Envy

Ok…I’m confessing…I have serious blog envy.  I have the “free” version of my blog and in order to add more bells and whistles and customize the way I want to I have to upgrade to a paid version.  I’ve been avoiding it due to the rationalization that I don’t need it, that I can rant and post away without having to have all the other fun stuff.  But Rob scrobbles!  I want to scrobble.  And Scott has random fun opinion polls on his sidebar.  And Jeanie has a cool custom header with an animated woman that even looks like her!  There’s more to confess, more features I’m jealous of on the many blogs I frequent.  And, here’s the thing, I know many of these features offer you the option to “post your own poll, playlist, etc.” on your blog…but I’ve tried and it doesn’t work.  I think it’s because of my “free version” having just the basics…I can redo my blog “appearance” but again, it’s just selecting from profiles that are already created for people like me who lack the understanding of how to really customize, or have the “basic free” set up for their blog.  Do I need to enroll in a “Creative Blogging for Idiots” class?  Or, maybe, just maybe, The Scrobbler (aka Rob) will help me.  Maybe he will come alongside and help me create a brand new look with fun features – he’s now the expert whose circle is closest to mine – I married him after all.

Remember the iPod saga?  Remember that I needed to ask support from you (the 2 readers who read my blog consistently) to petition for a new iPod?  Well, here’s a new opportunity.  Please start putting on serious guilt and pressure to The Scrobbler to carve out some time for little old me – HIS WIFE – to upgrade my blog.  🙂  

Let the petitions begin……….
