After a morning spent shuffling HTML and CSS code, I've made a few changes to the ol' blog design. Everything should both work and display properly, but if it doesn't, would you let me know? I've learned over time that while things might look great on my monitor, they don't always look as stellar elsewhere, and I'd deeply appreciate comments if something seems to be non-functional or just looks out of place.

I talk about my life anyway because if, on the one hand,
hardly anything could be less important, on the other hand,
hardly anything could be more important.
My story is important not because it is mine, God knows,
but because if I tell it anything like right, the chances are
you will recognize that in many ways it is also yours.
Maybe nothing is more important than that we keep track, you and I,
of these stories of who we are and where we have come from
and the people we have met along the way
because it is precisely through these stories in all their particularity,
as I have long believed and often said, that God makes himself known
to each of us most powerfully and personally.

looks great! :)
I love it.
BTW, I'm not ignoring your email about my blog - just pondering exactly what I want to do.
Love your blog and enjoyed reading your about me page...would love to read more! I will be checking back in! :)
Is the header off center? Love the brightness of it all!
The header's not off center, Eliz -- it's purposefully been placed asymmetrically. :) Thanks for asking!
I usually read in Google Reader, but clicked just to see the new design. I like it. I absolutely love the font. The only thing I noticed is that the quote by Frederick Buechner wraps a little strange. The first line breaks after "anything" and the 2nd line only has two words "could be" on it. Each of the breaks are similar - one really long line, then a line with 1-2 words on it. Hope that helps! :)
Love your Buechner quote! Perfect for your blog! And the blog looks great- a bit of color, yet simple and clean. Did you forget the cartoon version of yourself? ;-)
Amy -- I fixed the spacing of the quote. Let me know if it's still breaking up. Jenny -- My cartoon me is so thin, she's invisible. :)
