I spent all of yesterday afternoon and evening moving my blog back over to Typepad and now all I want to do is sit around and play with Typepad. A lot has changed since I used this service regularly and I have been having fun poking around and learning about all of the new stuff.  I've been blogging for so long that I remember a time before widgets and now Typepad has a whole widget library!

Today I went in to downtown with Will.  He had a short lab class and I needed to return some stuff to the library and people, I walked a lot.  I walked almost eighty blocks.  EIGHTY.  In three hours.  And I just realized why I've been hobbling around my apartment for the last few hours feeling like all of my joints were going to suddenly explode apart. I'm getting old.

Last night I got to talk on the phone with one of my older brothers for a little over an hour and it was super fun.  We don't get to talk very often and every time we talk we promise that we'll be better about calling and keeping in touch and then a few more months (or years) go by.  Still though it was fun to just sit and joke around on the phone. 

Tonight I watched the thirty minute Obamamercial and then part of his Floridian midnight rally and then watched his appearance on Jon Stewart and I have to say, I keep finding more and more reasons to feel good about voting for him.  I know that I am making the right choice in filling in his circle in my mail in ballot (Oregonians vote by mail in ballot.  It sucks.  I desperately want an "I Voted" sticker).  It hit me today that this will be the FOURTH time I've voted for President.  This? Also makes me feel old.  And proud.

Finally, I still haven't decided whether or not to do Nablopomo.  I really really want to, but I am afraid of putting up a month's worth of crap.  I know, though, that I need to kick start my posting again.  Now that I'm back on Typepad that should be a little more fun.  I love Typepad.

And look, I just brought it full circle!
