Clarification on Site Format

Aug 11
2009

blue_screen_of_deathThe site format has officially been suspended. I have thought hard about this and decided that this will be the best option for me to move forward. If I can, I will still stick with the original format I layed down in this article: New Format For the Site « Aaron Hollman’s Blog but I need the freedom to move away from this if I need to.

Like I said before, I really wish I could sit here and write good quality blog entries everyday, but with work, housework, the family (wife and pets) I just don’t have the time. Plus, my rediscovery of photography as a hobby has really zapped time from me. I may not always make my schedule and I reserve the right for that to be the case.

I hope to get a schedule down soon to help me crank out some good entries.

I Need a Break

Aug 11
2009

This is not working. I would love to be able to write blog entries everyday, but its just not working; I need some down time. I tried to get a blog entry out everyday and last week I couldn’t since I was sick.

I am not going to stop writing blog entries so instead here is what I am going to do. I am going to try to keep writing Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and give up on the Tuesday and Thursday articles. Any entry I would have written that would have fallen on those days, I will put on Wednesday’s entry.

To be honest with you all, the latest entries didn’t feel right to me. It felt like I was just “going through the motions” to get something out. I hope this will allow me to push out some better entries.

Thanks for reading.

Downtown Kearney, NE

My schedule this week is all out of whack. There will be no history article today and probably no food article tomorrow but I hope to be back on schedule next week. Sorry for the break, but I need it.

In the meantime, you can check out some of my pictures on my photoblog at: Aaron’s Photoblog

This will probably be a light week. This cold I have is really kickin’ my butt. I’ll get some post out this week, but am not sure how many yet. Hope everyone out there stays healthy and doesn’t catch this crap.

New Format For the Site

Jul 08
2009

SwitchRack01LargeThis is a quick post to let all of you know about the new site format. I am going to try to make this work, but I am only one person and may not always be able to follow the format I am outlining here. But, like I said, I am going to try to stick with it as much as possible.

Mondays are going to be called Motivation Monday. It will feature articles that are motivationally related because we all need a little motivation to look forward to on Mondays. This is probably going to include life hacker like articles for making things easier to do but may also include little tips on how to do other things better.

Tuesdays are going to be called Tech Tuesday. On Tuesdays, I will be featuring tech related articles that will mostly have to do with computers or the internet. I may stray a little from that though if something of interest to me is happing in other fields of science.

Wednesdays are going to be called Wild Wednesday. This is an anything goes day for me. I will allow myself the freedom to post anything I want on Wednesdays or even nothing at all if I choose not to.

Thursdays are going to be called History Thursday. Since history is an interest of mine and is important in real life, I thought it appropriate to give it its own day on my blog. I will be posting articles on my blog about anything in history that interests me. This will probably focus on Western Civilization history from the Classical Era all the way through to the Middle Ages. I may stray from that though if I find something outside of this range that is intriguing to me.

Fridays are going to be called Food Fridays. This is where I will post recipes that I enjoy that I hope other people will enjoy as well.

I am hoping that I can stick with this, but as I said earlier, I am only one person. I also have a real job and am married so if I miss a few days, forgive me, I’ll get back to it as soon as I can.

Future Post: The Battle of Tours

Jun 15
2009

I will be posting a little article on the Battle of Tours in the near future. As I write it, I realize that it has been a long while since I wrote anything academic-wise. As I mentioned on the About page, I am a fan of history, mostly ancient and Medieval, the Battle of Tours almost falls right between them both. I find the Battle of Tours very interesting since it was one of the most pivotable battles in Western Civilization history. I only hope that after the article is posted, it is accurate and easy to understand. Of course, comments and corrections will be welcome.

Themes, themes, themes

2009

I have been checking out the vast array of themes available for Wordpress and I am impressed. I have so many options that I am not sure which I am going to use. For a while, I will be trying different themes until I find the one that works for me.

First Post

Jun 11
2009

Hello and welcome!

Forgive the hastiness of this post, future posts will be much cleaner.

After being absent for a while, aaronhollman.com is back. I decided to go with a Wordpress site for now because it is the simplest solution. At some point in the future, I may design my own site from scratch.

There will be many changes to come yet all of which I hope will be good. For now, stay with me as I will be posting stuff that interests me.
