Welcome!
Posted by Deutlich on January 27th, 2009 | Filed under: UncategorizedStretch out, sit back, and make yourselves comfortable. I have officially moved my blog, Speak On It, to a (dot)com.
I feel like I’ve stepped into the 21st century.
I mean, I’ve had the (dot)com address since December, but being as how I am super slow and occasionally way too lazy, I didn’t start pestering Jessica for a blog design until fairly recently. And speaking of Jess from Delicious Design Studio, can I just say that I would give her my left kidney if she needed it?
I absolutely adore my new design. Not only was she super easy to reach, fantastically open to all my quirks and wicked nice to boot, but the price was right.
I mean. Truly.
I thank her from the very bottom of my lil’ ole heart.
Do yourselves a favor and hit her up for your blog (re)design!
While I’m on “thank yous” I have to extend a VERY big one to Nico. I mean, the man is fantastic in every way as it is. But he’s also hosting my blog on his server. Because he’s a fucking rock star.
I promise you all I won’t be moving again. This is now my new, permanent, home.
And I love it.
I hope you do too.

January 27th, 2009 at 6:18 pm
ooh it’s so pretty! I love it!
Everyone’s been moving to their own domains recently, I’m constantly updating my G-reader.
Gah! That gets annoying after a while, eh? I’m sorry to add to the clutter.
January 27th, 2009 at 6:25 pm
Color me green with so much envy. Your new digs are tres awesome. Congrats.
January 27th, 2009 at 6:31 pm
AWESOME new digs! I adore the design! With everyone moving to their own domain, I’m really getting the bug. Have been standing at this edge for a while though….
You should do it!
January 27th, 2009 at 6:34 pm
Love it! Love it! Loooove it! Gorgeous! Fantastic! Could I put anymore exclamation points?!
I’m sure you could – hahaha.
And thank you!
January 27th, 2009 at 6:39 pm
I saw this design in Jess’ portfolio yesterday and I loved it…but of course I knew it was yours from the masthead. It looks great!
January 27th, 2009 at 7:02 pm
while i maintain the tendencies of a stalker, i must stay that i dig the new diggs (get it?)
i may make that move once i’m more famous. more poems? more published books?
something like that.
January 27th, 2009 at 7:11 pm
Yay, you got your own domain too! I love the style of it!
Next for me is to get a new template. Congrats!
January 27th, 2009 at 7:24 pm
I’m IN LOVE with the flower design… Really, I LOVE it.
January 27th, 2009 at 7:34 pm

January 27th, 2009 at 8:03 pm

January 27th, 2009 at 8:10 pm
I love the new design! Love the purple!
January 27th, 2009 at 8:32 pm
First off–Congrats on your own new dotcom address! It’s kind of exciting, isn’t it?
Secondly, I always appreciate your honesty, on your own blog and when leaving comments on others’. Honesty is what I NEED when it comes to guys, so I’m really glad that you told me what you thought of the situation. I am someone who ALWAYS thinks positively of everything, so I want things to work out, which is why I’m giving him another chance. I’m just not going to try so hard. If HE wants to see me, HE needs to make the effort now.
Again, thank you.
You’re welcome, dear. I hope it works out either way.
January 27th, 2009 at 10:05 pm
Your own dot com! It’s beautiful! I love the design and the un-cluttered but full-of-stuff set up. (Articulate, I know, but that’s how I describe it.)
I knew exactly what you meant.
January 27th, 2009 at 10:26 pm
yay to your own website, congrats. ANd the layout is sooo pretty too
January 28th, 2009 at 12:16 am
That sure is one beautiful design you got! I feel vitaminically boosted just looking at it
Congratulations on the move. Brilliant move.
& Yes, Nico certainly is badass magnificent- and lucky me, I get to say it with some partiality bec. we’re family
I love that you blog too.
January 28th, 2009 at 1:33 am
Nice one! Have your own unique design, and url does make a big difference. Plus you won’t have to deal with all those restrictions about adding widgets etc that you get on wordpress.com
This is very true. And I love it. Also? HI! I thought you disappeared totally from the blog scene.
January 28th, 2009 at 2:06 am
Welcome to your new home! Very pretty!
January 28th, 2009 at 3:22 am
Yay for you!
Looks good.
January 28th, 2009 at 4:49 am
It’s gorgeous!
January 28th, 2009 at 5:16 am
The layout kicks so much ass!!! I love it!
January 28th, 2009 at 5:30 am
It looks absolutely fantastic!
January 28th, 2009 at 5:49 am
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone!! I’m sorry y’all have to deal with the whole updating readers/blog rolls and such.
January 28th, 2009 at 5:56 am
This is stunning.
January 28th, 2009 at 6:11 am
Look at your new digs…

January 28th, 2009 at 6:18 am
It looks amazing! Congrats.
January 28th, 2009 at 7:09 am

January 28th, 2009 at 7:09 am

January 28th, 2009 at 7:15 am
