After discovering that I had nothing to say, I quickly abandoned it. I was inspired by <a href=\"http:\/\/precisely.org\/kley\/\">Kleykulele<\/a> to re-start my blog several months later.<\/p>\n<p>When I moved to TR.com, Reina convinced me to give Greymatter a try, and it served me admirably for over two years. While rebuilding took a while and became a bit of a pain, the easy-to-use template system was a definite plus.<\/p>\n<p>When Reina switched servers (and domain names), she gave her hostees the opportunity to upgrade to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wordpress.org\">WordPress<\/a>. I love it. No messy rebuilding, a drafts feature, a little arena for me to make my first forays into PHP, and a plugin for everything under the sun.<\/p>\n<p>I was finally forced to purchase my own domain and hosting after Reina switched servers yet again&#8230; not that I blame her for it. \ud83d\ude42 Now, at least, I feel like less of a drain on other people&#8217;s resources.
