Maybe you’ve noticed that my blog, until now known as Skin Deep, hasn’t been updated in a while. Well, there are three reasons for this.

1. Wordpress is a complete and total pain in the ass. In particular, my half-assed theme was always breaking. Okay, maybe that’s my fault
2. Tumblr was serving my needs quite well, except when I needed special formatting or one of my feeds didn’t parse correctly.
3. I rarely have time for lengthy, proofread editorial-style blogging, and was completely paranoid about bothering my subscribers with posts that may not be of interest. For the most part, Twitter has helped me overcome that phobia. From here on out, it’s my blog, and you’ll eat what I decide to feed ya.

However, I’ve outgrown Tumblr after too many instances where I really needed something to look or work a bit differently than the default, and had no way to customize it beyond Yahoo Pipes -style solutions.

So, after much consideration, I’m giving Wordpress another go. It was my discovery of dean.j.robinson’s fantastic “Redoable” theme that finally pushed me over the edge. Let me know if you like it as much as I do; I think it’s pretty damn sexy.
