So it has been a few months since my last post, and the incredibly vain reason as to why is this: I cannot figure out how to get the date to appear above my postings. It really frustrates me. Additionally, I cannot get a picture to show up behind my blog title. I've clicked, edited, browsed, added....and yet nothing. My blog stands in rebellious mockery of the choices I have set my settings to.

Why does this bother me so? Do I feel entitled to the layouts of other bloggers? Are my uber organizational tendencies refusing to admit defeat? Sigh. Perhaps.

So I struck a deal by changing the color-scheme. This will suffice, for now.
