I found your comment! We already talked about this, huh? LOL! Gosh, I know there’s cheap hosting out there. Midphase might be cheaper. GoDaddy has some, too.

But I know what you mean, for a blog. Blogspot is pretty awesome if you want free! They’ve been growing their features a lot in the last couple years.

They’ve heard all about me? Oh, boy. Lovely. >__> <__<

I did look at WordPress.org first, and while I know it's always better to self-host, may I ask what you're using to do so?
I used inMotion Hosting for my Zelda fansite and it cost me, like, $170 for three years. o__O Not doing that again, especially not for a blog.

LOL, Joey! Of course I’ll see your comment! I stole the design. (See link on bottom.) If you get wordpress, self-host it. (Do wordpress.org and not wordpress.com) Blogging is fun!

Of course you’re the genius-poet. You were my genius-poet student, but I guess I can’t call you that anymore, LOL! They’ve heard all about you. Now doesn’t that make you feel comfortable, LOL?

But I think you were on to something with the last line, because it made me rethink the poem. It does seem to say, above, that one is the same as the other. And I think it’s totally cool that Frost was so adamant about not validating any one interpretation.

I think your road is going to be totally awesome, Joey!

So, I don’t know whether you’re notified about new comments, so maybe you won’t see this, but w/evs:

This. Blog. Is. Amazing.

Both in design, and in content. I think I need me a WordPress! XD

I’m flattered to have been referred to as the “genius-poet,” even if I’m not sure it’s accurate, lol.

But anyhow, I’m thinking it was a bit rash of me to say that the last line was intended to be taken sarcastically——it’s more that it’s a possibility. Although it’s also important to remember that while Frost made a habit of validating no one’s interpretation, he still did have opinions. I dunno…

As for me, this is just one more fertile battleground in the war between my cynicism and optimism. I WANT to take the road less traveled by, and I want to believe such a choice would matter, but thinking doesn’t make it so, or however that line from a Shakespeare play I haven’t read goes. (Hamlet, was it?)

Hurm…I guess time will tell.

That’s the best time! When winter comes I always say, “This is why we live here.” It’s pretty much two season: hot and not. Winter is gorgeous.

I would so love it if we could get together. Yay!

Awesome! We’ll probably only be there in winter.

Yep. Arizona. We’re roasting right now, but come on by.

Oh YES! You are totally my hero in that, Marcia. Totally! I’m so going there in the next three years.

I have to force myself on adventure. Baby steps. But I’m going.

Love the new palace!

When it comes to the important things in life (you already know about the one that’s been in the making for the last eight months ), I’m happy to say I’m on the road less traveled and have no regrets. Heck, I’m probably the one who takes an unmarked path and will up pulling out a compass to find her way again. Either way, I’m fine with that. In fact, I think there’s more adventure and chances for discovery that way.
