			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the last few days, I had my confidence broken for an extremely stupid reason.  And with that, I ended up deleting the entire site and started over.  I wrote my entry about &#8220;Jim Jones&#8221; and originally called it &#8216;My First &#8220;REAL&#8221; post&#8217; and to be quite honest, thats a load of shit.  Why i listened to a stupid person on what blog content should be, I will never know.  Infact according to <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Introduction_to_Blogging">WordPress.org</a> a blog is</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Blog&#8221; is an abbreviated version of &#8220;weblog,&#8221; which is a term used to describe web sites that maintain an ongoing chronicle of information. A blog is a frequently updated, personal website featuring diary-type commentary and links to articles or other Web sites. Blogs range from the personal to the political, and can focus on one narrow subject or a whole range of subjects.</p>
<p>Many blogs focus on a particular topic, such as web design, politics, sports, or mobile technology. Some are more eclectic, presenting links to all manner of other sites. And others are more like personal journals, presenting the author&#8217;s daily life and thoughts.</p></blockquote>
<p>With that being said, the blog is MINE and its my decision what I write in it.  At this point, I could care less whether or not I get thousands of visitors, or even if my coding is &#8220;up to standards.&#8221;  I have always seen it as if it works in &#8220;most&#8221; browsers, I&#8217;m doing somthing right.  I do the blogging and web design in my <strong>FREE TIME</strong> as a <strong>HOBBY</strong>.  And to be honest I do have a life and I do not plan to spend every waking moment for the rest of my life trying to have perfect coding and reach thousands of visitors a day.  Don&#8217;t like it?  Go screw yourself.</p>
<p><strong>And now for my braces</strong>  :yuc1:<br />
For the last couple days the wire of my braces has been moving to the right, like it normally does.  But for the last few weeks the wire has moved really far over.  Infact it looked somthing like this.<br />
<img src="http://www.another-friday.mindlesstrio.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/05/teeth.JPG" alt="Teeth" class="floatRight" />  So because there is so much wire on the one side, it keeps stabbing the side of my mouth and it SUCKS.  So i decided to cut it (and succeeded I might add <img src='http://nicksampsell.com/theaughts/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  )  You&#8217;d be suprised at how hard it is to cut brace wire.  Oh well. <img src='http://nicksampsell.com/theaughts/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
