I don't see myself as my "age" - I see myself as the same old me I've always been, just with a bit more experience along the way.<br /><br />As for your question to me about expanding your page width - I'm sure you could do that by adjusting the parameters of your blog template by going to Layout and Edit Template HTML and determining which line dictated the dimensions of your page width. But it might be easier to select a template with a wider setting built in. I use Denim Stretch which gives that broader view. See if your existing template has other settings to choose from. If not, let me know and I'll see if I can find the answers within the HTML code that would make it wider.

My friend posted this last summer on her blog:<br /><br />Recently, in large city, a poster featuring a young, thin and tanned woman appeared in the window of a gym. It said:<br /><br />THIS SUMMER DO YOU WANT TO BE A MERMAID OR A WHALE?<br /><br />A middle aged woman, whose physical characteristics did not match those of the woman on the poster, responded publicly to the question posed by the gym.<br /><br />To Whom It May Concern:<br /><br />Whales are always surrounded by friends (dolphins, sea lions, curious humans). They have an active sex life, they get pregnant and have adorable baby whales. They have a wonderful time with dolphins stuffing themselves with shrimp. They play and swim in the seas, seeing wonderful places like Patagonia, the Barren Sea and the coral reefs of Polynesia . Whales are wonderful singers and have even recorded CDs. They are incredible creatures and virtually have no predators other than humans. They are loved, protected and admired by almost everyone in the world.<br /><br />Mermaids don't exist. If they did exist, they would be lining up outside the offices of Argentinean psychoanalysts due to identity crisis. Fish or human? They don't have a sex life because they kill men who get close to them not to mention how could they have sex? Therefore they don't have kids either. Not to mention who wants to get close to a girl who smells like a fish store?<br /><br />The choice is perfectly clear to me; I want to be a whale.<br /><br />P.S. We are in an age when media puts into our heads the idea that only skinny people are beautiful, but I prefer to enjoy an ice cream with my kids, a good dinner with a man who makes me shiver and a coffee with my friends. With time we gain weight because we accumulate so much information and wisdom in our heads that when there is no more room it distributes out to the rest of our bodies. So we aren't heavy, we are enormously cultured, educated and happy. Beginning today, when I look at my butt in the mirror I will think,Good gosh, look how smart I am......Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912030095491960175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3150849772249296822.post-62810573159372102442009-10-06T08:42:22.161-07:002009-10-06T08:42:22.161-07:00Hi Sweet Friend=thank you for your comments.
