Welcome to the new Finding Yourself Despite Yourself! Drop your bags and make yourself at home. You’ll notice a few very obvious changes and a few more subtle changes. Commenting should be easier for everyone now. You’ll have to get approved initially but if things work properly, after having a comment approved your next comment should automatically post- hopefully this will not be abused.  The new commenting system also makes it so that I have the option of replying to you by email.  If YOU want to contact ME outside of the comments, that too is now easy peasy. Click on “contact” and fill out the form. It will get sent directly to my email.  Please let me know if you run into any weirdness as you navigate the site. My designer has been working her butt off to make everything purty and functional.

Also you may have noticed some new advertising on the left hand side. I promise you are going to LOVE those advertisers . In the very near future, once everything is moved and running smoothly I will be launching a Blogstravaganza party to celebrate the new digs. The lovely folks appearing on the left are sponsoring PRIZES - ooooooo ahhhhhh. You should go drool over what they are selling now as a sign of appreciation (trust me the prizes are totally worth it!)
