I&#8217;m one of those people who gets very upset when something I&#8217;m used to undergoes a massive renovation without my knowledge. Probably the best example of this phenomenon I can think of is haircuts. I&#8217;ll have a friend who, for as long as I&#8217;ve know her, has had long hair. Then one day I see her and, whamo, she&#8217;ll have short hair. I&#8217;ve been given no warning and am completely thrown. It&#8217;ll take me days to adjust.<\/p>\n<p>Same thing with web pages. Right when I get to know and feel comfortable with a web page, they&#8217;ll go and change it on you. Different colors, layouts, the whole enchilada all overnight.<\/p>\n<p>Now, having said that, I should warn you that we&#8217;re looking at some serious changes here at chrissierocks.com. I&#8217;m talking major overhaul. Since changing ISP providers, the sky is the limit so we&#8217;ve been working on moving to a new publishing system. I don&#8217;t want to shock you so I&#8217;ll give you a sneak peak.<\/p>\n<p>As you can tell, it&#8217;s still in progress as the heading is goofy and the links don&#8217;t work but I just didn&#8217;t want you checking in one day and feeling totally lost and confused. That&#8217;s just the kind of considerate friend I am.<\/p>\n<p>Oh yes, and if someone could speak to the Safeway management about their constant re-arranging of their canned goods without any warning, I&#8217;d appreciate that too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I hate sudden change.
