It took long enough, but I finished it. I hated every design I came up with. I like things simple. So, I built a news management system for the backend, but decided to make a little blog for myself. Then, I continued to expand it by adding the about, work, archive, and contact sections of the site. I kept adding content and just turned it into the full site. I added a commenting system as well. I don't get a lot of traffic, but I'm working to improve the SEO and expand the backend. 

In retrospect, I should have just created a wordpress theme, but I wanted to work on a content management system and try some new stuff.

Anyways, enough rambling, Go have a look if you'd like!</body>

      <body>The text seems a little too big, but the design is clean and simple, which is great.</body>

I wanted to experiment with a new design; really large headings so I could increase the body text more. It's kind of a typography experiment. It is really large though (that's what she said) :) Thanks!</body>
