New Layout: It's Beginning to Look A Lot... More Tacky?

So, yeah, I holiday-ified my blog. Hardcore. And yeah, it's super tacky on purpose. I'm testing some new ideas for the direction of the blog. In theory, I want it to be a little less serious, a little less thought out, a little more pop culturey, a little more fun and random. A little more me. I see so many movies, watch so much TV, see shit on Broadway all the time—I want to have a space to reflect that, and before it didn't really fit with the overall theme. I've also lived in New York for a year and half now, and as I've stated with the previous rejiggers, the endless flow of oh-my-god-New-York-is-so-new-and-different posts has, well, stopped flowing. I want to be a little more experimental, a little more casual.

MY EEEEYES!!! Muahaha!

So here it is. My first step toward a little attempt. Obviously after the holidays the look will change again, and hopefully frequently after that depending on what I'm into at that time, with some kind of pop culture reference, something seasonal, whatever.

Ah, and a new tagline. The old: The story of a Mississippi boy slowly but surely becoming a New Yorker, and everything in between. The new: Tales of twenty-something living, selected pop culture, and New York fucking City. Hooray!

(PS: As an aside, I also want to point out that I photoshopped the shit out of the new header image above. Here's what it was before. Holler back. Just saying.)
