Love for Essential Keystrokes!

essentialkeystrokes.pngThe lovely Char at Essential Keystrokes put up a post today that sent the hugest smile to my face :D

She’s taken part in the tradition of “Blogtipping” begun by Easton at Business Blogwire as a way to share new blogs with readers and give “kudos” to others. It takes place on the first of the month and includes any three blogs.

Char was so kind as to choose three of my blogs as her picks!

This month I have been introduced to an extremely talented blogger/designer named Lara. She has (at least) three blogs so I am going to tip each one of them – they definitely deserve the attention. And did I mention that Lara is just finishing up her senior year of high school? This girl has got a very bright future.

She did a run down of Blog What? Design, Crunchy Mustard, and this blog, The Desired.

So, head on over to Essential Keystrokes. Char’s blog is great. She offers tons of tips and perspectives on blogging, and other internet goodies.

Save a Yellow Rose: New Design

I have decided to release this theme tonight (or this morning?), because I am really excited about it. I spent a lot of time adding some unique features to this design (many of which I have picked up from other blogs I absolutely adore) and have come up with the theme entitled ‘Save a Yellow Rose.’

There are a few minor glitches still (CSS problems with IE – can anyone help?, Validation, RSS, & a few missing features for the sidebar) hence my hesitation on releasing it. Overall though, I really like it… I think this is my favorite design yet.

On top of it all I am experiencing computer trouble once again. Currently I have my hard drive hooked up to my sister’s computer. It should be sent away for work tomorrow morning.

Tell me what you think. : )

New Christmas Theme

Finally, after tedious testing in IE to get the CSS just right for that broken browser and such, (everyone please just go download Firefox) the new design is ready! The theme is entitled Where’s Santa based on the title of the image I used for this design. You’ll notice a lot of awesome plugins with this theme with more to come, be sure to check them all out. If you notice any bugs or display mishaps, please let me know by commenting here. Thanks a bunch!

>> Just added a bunch of Christmas tunes to the blog radio ;)

I’m Back!

After a lot of tedious work with finding backups of the databases, fixing the design, and uploading everything, I’m back! Hopefully we won’t have anything like this happen again, but in the meantime, I’m glad to be back blogging!

Sorry, Sorry!

I know the website hasn’t been working correctly for the past week, and I know it isn’t so you all can stop telling me :P It will be like this for a few more days, the problem was with the namservers. I have to also register new name servers under this domain, as I list my other domain.

Don’t miss me too much!

Radio Blog

I just installed TheDesired.NET’s very own Radio Blog! I decided to put it in a pop up, firstly for those who just don’t want the music, and also, every time you change the page the music won’t reset. :p

All of the music on my Radio Blog is streamed directly off of TheDesired.NET. I will be adding all my mp3’s as soon as I can convert them to the special format for streaming.

Right now I just have some stuff on there like, some music from Oh Brother Where Art Thou? to an awesome Benny Benasi song, Satisfaction. I am also going to put on there B. Spear’s new song Mona Lisa. It takes a few times to like it…. hahaha.

You can pop the player here, or on the side bar. Enjoy!

All Websites Going Down for Host Switch

If you’d like to know:
Tomorrow I will be switching over all of my websites to my reseller account at site5.com. Thank-you Becca for referring me to this lovely host, and I was sure to credit :plug: her lovely website on the order form :cutie:

The websites will probably be down tomorrow, and the day after. We just have to see how quickly the DNS for the domain names switches over.

It might be all done earlier if there’s no school tomorrow or a delay! :snowflake:

White Ninja Power!

White ninja!The White Ninja Comics should be a staple in everyone’s daily reading… even if you don’t do any of it at all. The comics are wonderfully random, and will make you giggle like a little girl. From his adventures with a severed head, to turtles trying to mooch cigs off of him , white ninja does it all!

Take a look at their witty intro:

What is ‘White Ninja Comics’?

White Ninja Comics are not for the weak of mind. They are a brilliant satirical commentary on controversial worldly issues.

They can be enjoyed on many levels. Scholars, Philosophers, and the like, who possess the intellect to analyze and break down the comics to their hidden, and often devious, roots, will enjoy White Ninja to its fullest degree. Others, like you and I, however, can still enjoy the comics for their light-hearted surface humour and funny drawings.

If ya’ll didn’t notice, I added the “about” page back again, right underneath my bio to the right. I guess it was rather diguised before ;) I might add a menu back with content again, but we’ll see what I feel like doing. Also, I added the archived snapshots back. :P fun!

Always one to laugh, I'm the girl you'll see giggling in the back over a silly word or joke while the world passes right by her. Although I enjoy the serious side of life (politics, world news and what makes the world go 'round), I love to be creative through humor, fashion, dance and design.

My name is Lara...more?
