With everyone else changing things, I want a change too. I want a new identity online. I’ve been tired of being “blah” for over a year. But I can’t decide what to do – which domain name to use. So here is your chance to be heard! Come on, tell me what I should do…

1. BigPinkCookie.com – when it gets right down to it, everyone likes a big pink cookie. It started because Kymberlie & I went to Starbucks yesterday and they had pink cookies, and the sign actually said “Big Pink Cookie” and it amused me. Yes, I could handle being the big pink cookie.
2. Pixelwannabe.com – I already have the domain name and it’s basically unused. I registered it and thought I would make graphics to give away someday. HA! As if. It will never happen. Since I’m not using it, I could start. And the photos are at pixelog.org … so they sort of tie together. But I’m not sure if I care that much that they tie together. Hmmm…
3. Just move everything to Pixelog.org. Noah Grey combines all his stuff in to one site, I could too.
4. Leave good enough alone and leave it at blahblahblog.com – I mean, my blogdex ranking is 232. I’m on the same page as PayPal & the Red Cross. Good God, Noah Grey is just above me. Jason Kottke is at the top of the page. How did THAT happen??? I had no clue!
5. The “motto” of this site has always been “To Make a Short Story Long…” I could change the URL to shortstorylong.com – but that’s a lot to say to someone when they say, “What’s the name of your site?” Yes, this is something to consider. I absolutely hated saying “Blah Blah Blog” to people when I was at SXSW.
6. Think of a different domain. Any suggestions?

I’m a Libra. I’m indecisive. It’s your chance to tell me what you think about a new name. Come on, talk to me baby…

I truly woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. I have this burning, almost overwhelming desire to just bitch-slap someone. That would truly make me feel so much better. But then I would be full of guilt for that. Which would in turn take over my pure annoyance for the majority of the human race today. I can’t decide if I want to cry or just scream. Maybe a good primal scream is what I need. Or a hug. Could someone give me a hug? I promise, I won’t bitch-slap you. Days like today I’m thankful for good music in the headphones, good friends like Promo, Jennifer to listen to you rant, and someone like Kymberlie to go through it with. Yes, I’m trying to look at the many positives, otherwise the negatives might overwhelm me at the moment.

While half of my ranting is justified (the other half is just due to a bad mood), I would like to tell Mr. Rob Lowe to just cry me a river. Freak. The man’s career was at a dead standstill, I don’t think he had done anything noteworthy in years until West Wing came along. I heard on the news last night that now he’s leaving the show because Martin Sheen makes 4 times as much as he does an episode. Freak. You make $75,000 an episode. HOW can that not be enough? And you finally have a job! Be thankful! So to you, Mr. Lowe, I extend a bitch-slap. Get a grip and learn to be grateful for the things in your life.

The Blogwhore game ends tonight, and there is even an online chat for Shel to announce who won. We moved it though away from Yahoo, and now it’s here. So if you want to join, enter a user name, pick the default room, and come on in! (I skipped the password option and it let me right in.)

Edited: Chat’s over. Philo won and has been crowned the Ultimate Blogwhore. Even though I didn’t win, I’m glad I played. It was a blast and I got to meet a lot of new people. That’s what matters most when being a Blogwhore. I am now officially Philo’s bitch since I took up the challenge. I am also Michele’s bitch, because I wanted to be.
