first thoughts...testing

This is very much just a test post. I need to see what various themes do to the actual text of the blog, and so I'm typing random stuff to fill up space! Testing testing testing... I think that it is easy to spend too much time on the look of a blog, when the focus should be on what is said. And that is a weakness of mine because I love to design. However, a certain amount of care is worthwhile in order to be sure that the blog is presentable and readable. What I've already typed is probably enough to get an idea of these things—therefore I shall end this rather pointless rambling which came unedited from whatever was at the tip of my tongue. Or my fingers.
