As I sit here weeding out old blog posts (paid links to stuff I don't/won't use again are being purged as well as duplicate or unnecessary posts), I realized that I've been doing this for almost NINE YEARS. Wow. Time flies.

I started blogging back when I was going to school. Between that and a full-time job, the only way I could let family & friends know what was up was to post to a blog. Ultimately, it's become the chronicle of my life and I'm saddened at the holes I find where I couldn't bring myself to write about what was happening at the time.

I'm glad my blogging mojo is back. I've sure missed this place. Now to get her all fixed up and pretty.

I'm in the middle of trying to organize my blogrolls so I can delete my old blogs and I'm finding a horrible trend that is really irking me. NO DATES ON BLOG POSTS! Not as bad, but still annoying, is it has a month and day, but no year.

I know a lot of people don't know anything about coding and just put up themes (especially Wordpress) that they like, but how can a visitor tell if your content is fresh or relevant when it has no date stamp whatsoever. I don't want to keep visiting blogs that haven't updated in over a year. Help a person out here.

My solution has been thus — delete the link. If you don't care enough about your readers to put out accurate information, I'm not going to bother to read it.
