how does this thing work?

i know blogger.com is rather confusing... so here are four steps that will hopefully make this experience a little less painful...

1. go here: http://www.blogger.com/start
2. type in your username and password
3. click on the green plus sign to the right of life really lived
4. click publish post after you say whatcha wanna say

also, whenever you publish something, at the bottom of your post you'll see your name on the left and a comments link on the right... please click on the comments link to see how other people are responding to your post...

one more thing... if there are certain web-sites you frequent or give us more info on what you're up to or blogs that you really enjoy reading or organizations that you really respect... please let me know and i'll put a link to it under your name in the right hand column...

thanks you guys... love ya...
