Blog Mastery

Thought I'd try this blog thing since I will soon be unemployed and will need something to do with my free time other than pack, move, clean, paint, unpack, etc. I read the blogs of my friends regularly and find myself a tad irked when they don't post enough for my entertainment. Please bear with me as I try to figure out how to do all those fancy things the rest of you have mastered with your blogs.
