		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes when you grow up, so does your HTML skills.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes I have those days where I&#8217;m just trying to make sure that I have a properly functioning website. I mean, I do pay for this damn thing. Yes, I understand that there is only one photo album at the moment, the contact page is sparse, and the review table mysteriously disappeared when I updated the design. But, the big thing I finally fixed was the damn RSS feed. Now it actually works up-op. Thanks <em>Feedburner</em> for never telling me that Google ate you.<br />
<P><br />
So now, Feedburner should be taking care of my problems with RSS. Maybe I can finally get past that one subscriber and have&#8230;dare I say&#8230; two?<br />
<P><br />

<span id="more-172"></span><br />
<P><br />
I remember days when I ran my little rinky-dinky <em>Tripod</em> website. I didn&#8217;t even know that Tripod still existed. Doing a quick Google search, I found the not-so  <a href="http://night1515.tripod.com/sailorpika.html">original address</a>. I say, &#8220;not-so&#8221; because I did try to move the site and the &#8220;new&#8221; address doesn&#8217;t work anymore. I remember the original website was basically an HTML table, the links on the left and content on the right. Back then the biggest problem that I had was that I sucked at HTML. I also thought that a lot of unnecessary crap was cool. Animated Gifs, MIDI files, long loading photos graced each and every page.<br />
<P><br />
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 102px"><img src="http://night1515.tripod.com/moonWelcome.gif" alt="Sailor Hello!" width="92" height="122" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Hello! Apparently my username still works...and I can access it</p></div></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p><P><br />
I just logged in and looked at the mess. Everything isn&#8217;t in folders, the files are just all out like dirty laundry. It looked like a ten year old made it. Then I looked at the year I placed on the website. <strong>1998</strong>. Oh crap. It was when I was <em>eleven</em>. Wow, the internet is a funny thing isn&#8217;t it?<br />
<P><br />
I&#8217;m thankful that I grew up and gained some taste. Granted, I used to have cool designs and stuff (well I thought I did) on Blogger. I turned making a crappy html website, to learning Photoshop and what colors matched each other. Luckily for me, I have a color-chart/thing that my old roommate Alex made for one of his classes. He didn&#8217;t need/want it afterwards and I decided to take it. It sits in my office and whenever I need to color match, whether it be HTML or scrapbooking, it&#8217;s behind me.<br />
<P><br />
<em>My how much the internet has changed after eleven years.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have finally gotten around to rate most of my music on my iTunes. It was done before, but when I transferred all my music to my other external hard drive (<em>which I hear is a no-no</em>) only 3/4ths of the album covers and none of the ratings transferred over. I spent the past six months rating all the music. Now there are only 3 subjects to rate: Patsy Cline, Fleetwood Mac, and the new Franz Ferdinand album. The first two are obvious, the latter is because I haven’t had a chance to sit down and listen to it.</p>
<p>Getting to the point of the post: I could never stay on iTunes too long because after a while my eyes would start to kill me. Small black text on white background? For shame. Funny, because I am typing this on<strong> Word</strong> and have no problem, but when the text is like six point font it just hurts. That and the fact that I have more than 7000 songs (<em>my iPod claims 8,221, but my iTunes says that there are about 7,700. I’m not sure what the disconnect is</em>). I would have to rate about 100 songs a day and then die a little on the inside for the sake of organization.</p>
<p>I don’t understand why Apple has to be so stingy with their color choices. I’m sure there are people out there that can’t see or read iTunes and prefer something like <strong>Winamp</strong> with the option of skins. I just want a dark version of iTunes that comes with it. I don’t want to download some third party skin mask thing. Why isn’t there a tab for changing the colors or something?</p>
<p>Now that the ratings are done, it’s time to add album covers, album titles, track numbers, and year of release. I’m taking my time on those.</p>
