Getting started with WordPress is hard work!
So I just spent about two hours updating settings, burning RSS feeds, creating sitemaps, and uploading and downloading files from my server, all of these just to get my WordPress stuff in a presentable state. I’m pretty sure I still need to tweak a lot more stuff, like adding Google Analytics, something related to Twitter, add some links to other stuff I like, and put a picture of me doing something goofy and totally inappropriate.
