I want to improve the look of this site – any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Little doo-hickeys I can throw into the margin, to give it a more homey-feel.
So far the changes I’ve made my italics bleed (what was previously italicized is now RED).

Tonight I’m celebrating Oktoberfest & I’ll be people watching, hopefully I’ll have much to report, but at the moment I have an entire colony of Friday ants occupying my pants driving me from this blasted chair & cubicle to… freedom.

Ah, the weekend is here!
