Shaun Lewis: the Man, the Myth, the Legend

Oh, Inverted World

Wow. It’s Sunday.

Finally. Finally, finally, finally I am finished with the new design. Obviously, there are bound to be a few errors here and there. Plus, I haven’t added all the new content that I want. Still, I am finished. Everything should (in theory) work.

Most of the biggest changes are, of course, not right there in the front. There will still be my usual long-winded entries. I’m making an effort to broaden the spectrum of content offered here though. In addition to those rants, you’ll also find posts called “asides.” These are small little blurps of Shaunie goodness. It’s like candy for your mind, man.

Oh, but wait. There’s plenty more.

I’ve always had the cameraphone entries (well… not “always”… since July), but now they’ll be (I think) better looking. Furthermore, I’m adding a new type of entry: the podcast. I’ve started a wonderful new service that will allow everyone to hear my wonderful voice. Please note: key to decipher my garbled speech will not be available until later. Eventually, I’ll set up a separate feed so that you can download and listen to everything in iTunes (or whatever you use to aggregate your syndicated feeds). All you’ll have to do is drag and drop my feed into iTunes 4.9 or greater. Naturally, if you don’t want to do that, you’ll be able to just download the file directly to your computer by clicking the download button located in the post.

It all sounds kind of complicated, but it’s really not. I’m explaining it too much.

As of right now, the plan is to offer my auditory insights into things much in the same way this journal does. Also, I’ll try to interview people. I’m not exactly a “journalist,” but hey… can’t be too hard, right? The first episode will be coming pretty soon, so keep your eyes and ears open for it.

A long-standing problem with this journal is that I never added any extras. I always said I would, but I just never did. Well, for the first time ever, there is AN extra. I don’t exactly have a plural amount of them yet, but I’m going to get there eventually.

If there is anything you think I could/should add, let me know. Also, if there is anything else you think I could/should change, let me know too. Of course, if something isn’t working right, let me know about that as well. Really, just let me know about everything. I like knowing.

OK, so here’s the deal. I’m going to be doing some pretty big redesigns to this site right now. If you are browsing and you experience any problems, that’s why. At least, I’m saying that’s why. Honestly, it’s probably something else that hasn’t worked for a long time. Who knows though, right?

Seriously though: the site will be “under construction.” Some things you can look for in the future are a new design, small posts called “Asides” (they will either have a smaller title than the others or be in the sidebar… haven’t decided yet), a new commenting system (watch it slide when you comment!), a new search system, hopefully a new polling system and really, just about everything you can imagine.

Sorry for any inconvenience? No. I’m not really.

Barry Lyndon

So, it’s very early Monday morning.

I just got off work and although James, my cousin and boss, worked me like a slave, I can’t sleep. I don’t know why this is. Honestly, there probably really is no reason, but the idea of just lying in my wonderfully comfortable bed thinking about hundreds of things before I drift to sleep doesn’t seem appealing. There is absolutely no reason at all for this lack of excitement towards sleep — except one, of course. I drank a lot of Coke.

I like my caffeinated beverages, what can I say?

Pressure Chief

Ha ha! It’s VERY early Sunday morning.

Well, if you looked around, you might’ve noticed a new design to this lovely web site. You may also notice that’s it’s pretty freakin’ awesome. I was getting tired of the old goldfish deal, so I thought I’d spice things up a bit. Personally, I’m a green fan (it’s a tie with blue for my favorite color), so I enjoy the scheme of things.

This is a quick little entry about something you should expect to see at this journal. Also, you should probably click the “Continue Reading…” link at the bottom of this paragraphy because I don’t want to take up a lot of room on the front page.

Quick message for today and it goes out to all of you who selected pink as the “color that best represents me” on my poll:

I hate you.

Also, I should note that one person voted for green. Green was the one about how I was smart and sexy. Probably I should also just kind of “throw out there” that I vote in the polls occasionally. Not to say that I voted for green, but really I did. It was a pity vote though and I was driven to it. Driven by my so-called “friends.” So, yeah. Thanks and junk.
