I’m feeling totally uninspired by the graphic design of this blog. I have gone through every single WordPress blog that’s out there, and everything just feels so flat and corporate. Thinking about seeing if my friend Kevin would do some graphic design for me and my new bacon concept. Except that if I actually enlisted his help, it seems like I would need to change the website address to one that fits the idea of continually desiring bacon. This also would mean that I would have to feel really, really tied to that name. I dunno. I changed the name on a whim that day, and I liked it. But long term? Eh. When I stopped writing a blog under my full first and last name and started this one, I also named it on a whim. I’ve fallen out of love with the name Ends With 8741, which means nothing to anybody else but me. Also, it’s hard to remember for anyone else but me. 8741, by the way, are the last four digits of my social security number. So the cat’s out of the bag. I don’t know. Feeling like I need a re-invention of the blog. A new name, some cool graphics. Wish I were a graphic designer myself. Though I’m totally not a visual person at all. I’m a very conceptual thinker. Not visual. I know that the execution of a particular idea will work (or not work), but I can’t actually picture how. So I guess I would be a horrible graphic designer. But good at layout. Anyway. Neither here nor there. Just something I’ve been thinking about over the lazy weekend. Loving the lazy weekend, by the way…
