So I'm taking a graphic design class -- using a mac. Can I take this moment to say that this website looks horrible if viewed in anything other than Firefox? That was my plug for all you IE or Netscape or Safari or any other archaic internet operating system. I would also like to say, in my defense, that my name in the upper right hand corner is really much prettier on my computer than it is on any of yours. Much prettier. Someday I'll know everything there is to know about stuff like this and I'll still be on the bottom rung since I can't possibly learn as quickly as new stuff comes out.
Ending a sentence with a preposition also throws me through a loop because in a sentence like the one above, how else could I end it? I suppose I could add the addendum after out, in the field. Or, in technology. It's possible, even recommended, but I won't.
One of my professors said today that one of the best things for an undergraduate English major to get into is small publishing. Kudos for me. I secretly smiled and said poo-poo to all those who said it was stupid for me to get an English degree with a minor in graphic design.

write down what that prof said and put it in the file marked "prophetic words"--'cause I think that was from the Lord!
...and it's not usually "through" a loop, but rather, "for" a loop. fyi.
:)
...and it's also good practice to stay away from saying, "poo-poo."
well you would say poo-poo to them too.
you guys are weird:]lore, e-mail me your e-mail address, please.
hey sweetie! if you click on the link to the side that says address you'll get my email address.
hope you're feeling better.
Way to promote Firefox! Well, if you are interested in some of the technology behind all the web graphics and want to code it, check out Sitepoint's website. They've got a load of great stuff that can help. Much of it is not too hard... you just have to have the time. I wish I did. I have been using someone else's designs since I put my site up. :(
