Cleaning Up Messes
I went back through my archives and recategorized/tagged 75 posts from the huge number of posts that I wrote when the blog was still on Blogger (290 remain…). This process totally sucked. I did notice a few things:
- Either Blogger or the Wordpress import tool inserts
<br />tags for line breaks. - I think every post that is about Richmond involves me complaining and ranting.
- Back in those days, I did not understand the beauty of short paragraphs. You can see this in early posts on SS!AB also.
- Hindsight is 20/20. I enjoyed my post about how Firefox offered nothing that IE didn’t.
- Looking back at my time in Richmond… wow I hate that place even more than before! Absence doesn’t make the heart grow fonder when you are talking about hellholes.
- It was tough categorizing posts, because I talked about so many different subjects in the same post. I think Blogger still doesn’t have categories, but they might have labels (like tags) now.
- Wow, I’ve been blogging for over 5 years. I like to think my writing skills have gotten much better, but we’ll see what I think when I look back at my posts in another 5 years.
I’m not sure when I will get around to fixing up the rest of the entries. Wordpress in those days was pretty bad too, from what I remember.

5 years of blogging and only 1 over-sized growth to share with us? L2hypothyroidism.

Awesome! And to think, I’ve been part of your blogging experience almost since the beginning! :o)

I have been lacking on cysts, but I did have that charlie horse once.
