I’m a self-taught man

I’ll tell you straight up. There’s nothing more frustrating than muddling your way through something about which you know very little. There’s also great satisfaction in learning something new.

So here I sit, with the boob-tube in the background making something more than white noise, trying to set up my website on my own. I work a little each evening, taking breaks to watch the commercials. It’s a short attention span thing, I guess. An hour here and an hour there, it adds up to a lot of hours on the couch.

Occasionally I make progress. More times than not, I repeat the same process again and again until something finally clicks. Ah, success, one baby step at a time. Now you guys that  know ”code” , widgets, and all that other geek-eze are surely in the middle of a LMBO moment. That’s okay. I’ve laughed at myself a bit lately.

So back to the grind.

So here I go…
