If you keep seeing a new post from me in your google reader, I’m sorry about that. (For some reason, my comment feed is showing up.) Right now, I’m having technical issues with my blog. Every time I click a link (to look at the comments, go to a new page, etc…), it takes me to http://somewhatvoluble.com/feed, and I can’t figure out what’s going on. Not only that, but I can find the contact email for WordPress. (It’s probably right in front of my face, hah!) If anyone can help me out, send me an email at somewhatvoluble[AT]gmail[DOT]com.
Update // less than ten minutes later:
Apparently the blog is working again. It’s actually letting me go to the comments now. It did this last night, though (then continued to not work again), so I don’t trust it.
Email/tweet me if it has any problems. Thanks!
Feed Readers: You must click through so that you can see my new, custom blog design. A HUGE thanks to Rachie Ann!

One year ago today, I began Somewhat Voluble. I had journals/diaries before, and I enjoyed writing in my Xanga (which is actually where I met my husband). After that faded, there was a long period of time that I didn’t write at all (except the occasional post on my Myspace page).
When I got engaged in November 2007, and I began planning my wedding soon after, I decided I needed a place to organize my thoughts. So, I created a blog on Blogspot. Though I liked it, I eventually became bored with it (read: just weeks later), and that’s when I found wordpress. And here I am. It started with “Breathless” (which is a post that has been featured on Indie Bloggers [no longer online] and Tweny-Something Writers.
I was exactly two months away from my wedding day, and to put it mildly, I was scared shitless. I was nineteen at the time, and I needed a place to vent my feelings. Plus, I missed writing. After some time, I became bored with this blog, so there was a point where I stopped writing in it all together. After I turned twenty (December 2008), I joined 20sb. That’s when I started to really get back into blogging, and I realized that it was all about the community, too. Since then, I bought my own domain, and I eventually (umm, last week?) bought my own host. This blog has become a HUGE part of me.
So, here I am. Two months away from my one-year anniversary of being married. I’m not scared shitless anymore. I’m not even that afraid of the future. Honestly, I know I have this blog to thank for that.

I’ve purchased my very own host! I’m in the middle of importing this blog into my NEW one … so if things on this blog start acting funny, let me know, and I’ll try to fix it all asap.
Actual posts below!
Update:
I apologize for the down-time somewhatvoluble.com received. I was in the process of moving from wordpress.com to Netfirms.com, and my site was offline for a bit. It’s back, though! (Obviously.) So, if you’re still wanting to enter the Blogoversary contest, it’s just a couple posts down.
If you notice anything acting strange, please don’t hesitate to contact me: somewhatvoluble@gmail.com
Also, please update your reader!
Update:
Sorry for the ugly theme/layout. It will have to do for now, though, until I get things situated. Plus, I’m getting a custom design in about a month!
