Doin’ the Happy Girl Dance

I'm so blasted happy right this very minute that I actually have a huge grin on my face as I type this. I'm going to have carpal facial syndrome if this continues.

Here's the (big) deal: I got a new 'puter for Christmas, and it came with Office 2007. And Office 2007 is way, way, way cool. (My absolute favorite part of that whole package is actually OneNote 2007, which Microsoft tends to treat like a poor cousin from the wrong side of the tracks for some weird reason, but I'll save that for another post). The reason I'm grinning at the moment is because I just discovered that I can blog right from Word.

That might not seem like such a big deal, since Typepad has a pretty good WYSIWYG editor, but blogging from Word makes it easy to compose when I'm offline, and I can save my posts to my hard drive, which means my blog content is backed up. I also have more control over how my posts look now. (Notice the nifty shadow under the pretty picture.)

I'm doin' the happy girl dance.

P.S. Thanks, Dad!
