New Blog Software?

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Wordpress is neat, but it feels a bit bloated and since I’m learning Rails, it makes sense to move to a blog engine built on that.

What do you think? Should I keep Wordpress, or move to Mephisto or Typo?

Also, is it just me or is this blog loaded with too many ads? I really had not been visiting much until recently and my first reaction was, “What was I thinking?” :)

My Testimony

I was raised Catholic, but there was something about the church that did not seem right, so right after high school I stopped attending. I felt that I knew who Jesus was, but what I was learning at church did not seem right to me. Due to some other things going on in my life, I began to lose hope about life and became depressed.

I knew that something was not right in my life so I tried to find happiness in the places that culture says to find it: alcohol, dance clubs, and everything that normally goes along with the two. But I still was not satisfied. Something was missing. I turned to self-help books to try to find the answers, but what I was looking for was not there.

The Root of Pain

A couple of weeks ago, a dental crown fell off while I was eating a Tootsie Roll. I have not eaten one of these for many years and I guess I was never really supposed to :). I went to a General Dentist who tried to reshape the original tooth to try to get a new crown to stay on better. I received the original crown in CA and now live in CO. After about two hours, the dentist told me that I had two options:

Site Down

I apologize for the site being down for a bit. I was in the process of changing hosts and, in my backup, did not realize that this site was using a database from another domain name. Therefore, I didn’t back up this database and accidentally deleted it!
