Sorry EBlogger

I started this journal in hopes of discontinuing my xanga but then I went and started blogging on livejournal. I am torn between all of these dang journals. Here are the pros and cons:

Xanga: (+) Everyone I know in real life is on Xanga so it makes more sense to post there when you're looking for comments on everyone's opinions. (+) My whole life story from the year of I think 2001 in on my Xanga. Weird right? (+) I know how to turn the RSS feed off of my Xanga. (-) I don't really like the format and how you have to upload photos. It's like using a Dell vs. a Mac. (-) Xanga people don't update very much so it doesn't motivate me to really update often.

Livejournal: (+) I love the communities on LJ. I am part of a great teaching community that offers an endless amount of ideas as well as a Westie community. (+) I like how photos are uploaded for the most part. (+) I like the 2 friends, real life friends, that I have on there so I don't want to miss their posts. (-) I don't know how to turn off the RSS feed and I know of one weirdo who might be taking advantage of that. (-) Nobody else is on it.

EBloger: I honestly don't know enough about this one to post pros and cons yet. I love the appearance but I don't know about functionality yet.

Thoughts ... they happen when you don't have anything else to do.


1. I feel like we've done so much packing but there is still so much stuff left in our apt. We moved all of the packed boxes into our apt garage so it's a quick move.
2. The Death Cab for Cutie concert is still dancing around in my head. Hence my blogger name. That concert just tripped me out for some reason.
3. I need to figure out how I want to redecorate my classroom because August will be here soon! I wanted to start from scratch and create a better vibe in my room. Maybe something that involves tikkis so I can feel tropical even in the winter. 
4. Decorating and repainting our house seems like a large task. I hope we can get it done in a timely manner because we are going on vacation on the 13th!
5. So stoked about previously mentioned vacation!! We have the hotel booked and I need to go buy our 3 day park hopper passes for Disneyland!! After taking over the Magic Kingdom we are going to IKEA in hopes of getting a new bed for our new bedroom.
6. I guess I should go figure out something for us to eat for dinner. :) I'm still not good at being domestic in that way.

Is this thing on? I decided to see if this is better than Xanga but I'm a hard sale seeing that I have years of my life over there on the Xanga servers. We'll see how this goes. Maybe I need a new place to blog since I'm getting a new place to live :)
