I have obtained the domain karenbenish.com for use as a more professional splash page. I was able to make a layout I really like with WordPress, so I’m excited about that. I think having the blog hosted on kabby.net still makes sense, since I am partial to this domain. I bought it probably close to 15 years ago, and I have enjoyed using it as a web creativity catch all.
The new domain fits my name change, is still short and is easy to spell. It definitely gives off a more professional vibe than “kabby” does, and so I’ll treat it as such.
In terms of private life, there has been a lot going on, but I’ll just give a quick snippet. I saw Hamilton (Chicago) a week ago, and it was a truly monumental experience. I started writing up commentaries on each of the songs – no small feat, considering that there are 46 of them – to help me remember the experience. I may consider posting some of them here.
