Aargh. I was hoping to announce that the fine visitors to this site could now visit Cheesehead Living in a new location.  I like Wordpress a lot as a blogging program because it allows for the cool categorizing of posts into whatever categories I care to invent for them.

You know what else I like…? That it’s not blocked in China. I actually have a college friend who lives in China, who can’t access this blog, because it’s part of (censored) Google.

So Wordpress would be good, but I’ll be danged if I can add a Flickr badge to it. It seems like I would have to go out and set up my own web host if I want to do that, and that’s a little more high maintenance blogging than I had in mind.

I’ve looked around in the support forums, and it seems like I have to have majored in computer science to be able to figure out how to add my random Flickr pictures to the sidebar there, as I have them (and love them) here. Can’t a girl just cut and paste some code? I’m really not up for this exploration of the fourth dimension and the time-space continuum just to post a little badge. And if it won’t let me do that, there are probably lots of other fun things I won’t be able to do.

So, sigh. If I can figure it out, I’ll change blogging programs, and if I can’t, I’ll stick with nice, easy Blogger, and yearn wistfully for the ability to categorize.
