Be a kid again

A lot of WordPress themes use standard chunks of text to help you see what the theme looks like in action. (WordPress is the blogging software this site uses. Themes are design templates you can download and install.)

Here’s a list that’s used to show what an ordered (numbered) list looks like. Because when I’ve seen it I’ve generally been checking out the design, I’ve tended not to look at the content.

But this is a great list and I think I’ll try to do most of these things over the next week (the cartwheel sound dangerous and I’m not sure whether a frog would appreciate my advances). It might lift my mood a little (it was rainy today and I’ve been sleep-deprived because of Maia’s medication schedule).

Enjoy!

Maybe you could try to do all these things as well. Let’s make a pact!
