bit by bit ...

don’t i already have an entry under this title? probably. well, if so, then the content is of the same subject. i’ve been updating the site design.. it seems to be just to satisfy some aesthetic craving, but it’s actually out of a necessity to reconfigure (a bit) my original design plan. i haven’t wanted to veer from it too much because i’m pleased that i was able to draw out something onto paper, without a known pattern to follow, and then was able to translate pretty much exactly into what i wanted in web-form. i like it. but actualizing it had proven that some hopeful elements of it are not quite as practical as they’d seemed on paper. so i’ve been working on ways to tweak the design without discarding much of it, in order to accomodate functionality. functionality should be the priority, after all. that this site was born from design, less than function, does not really make that less true. it’s a continuing work in progress. still not ready for an audience/participators. which is just as well.

there’s a lot of grey out today. and the giant cloud outside like a heavy curtain draped closed across the sky, spilling rain instead of sunlight—all excused by a promise that in exchange will surely come color and confident greens; the dedicated heralders and bearers of continual hope and trust that every spring will come, and every grey shall not stay.
