learning html

I’ve changed this blog’s theme and have been off-line for a day.

It’s like shaving one’s head on a whim I guess. You catch yourself in the mirror and for a second you wonder about the stranger staring back at you; until you remember who you are. I like that. Catching myself off guard. Also your head feels exposed and you feel more vulnerable to the world; more honest.

But back to the blog. Changing the theme allows me I suppose to see old content afresh, in a new form, and I get a kick out of that.

I don’t like this new form by the way, but what it’s doing is to get me to practice html – which I’ve played with before but damn! it’s a slow process.

Like learning a new language, unless you’re practising it, the vocab leaves you much quicker than it takes to lodge into your head. Like maths, too.

Guess it’s why I’m digging html – it calms me. It’s certain and specific. One digit in a spot produces some thing. Change one part, you change  the meaning of the whole.

So this blog, whilst public, is now officially a training ground for my html practice. Things may not be how you last left them.
