Contemblogging 2006?

So maybe the hair cut and color didn’t achieve the desired results…

and maybe the new car, while rather sporty is not quite enough to tame the forces of transformation stirring in my soul.

I’m still seeking modification over a multitude of venues.

Now I realize you all love (read *tolerate) and have grown accustomed to my trademark retinal scorching purple blog, but a facelift is none the less inevitable there too don’t you think?

Only that creates a small problem with me having to make a decision.
A new template would require a decision on my part with regards to a single choice of color, theme, style, and so forth, which would of course lend itself to difficulties in me making up my mind. (Why do you think it’s been purple for so long in the first place?)

So I’ve made an executive decision, and decided to let you guys vote on your favorite look for my new and improved blog for 2006. I’ve come up with several schemes if you will, based on personal meaning and favorite colors. You get to vote for the new look you think suits me best, K? won’t that be fun? With that done, my hubby will redo my blog template out of the goodness of his heart (read* so I’ll quit pestering him about it).

Contestant number one:

this represents my cat Rockie, and uh...the color green. It matches his eyes, and I laugh at him daily. I also like green, and you haven't burned the rods and cones in your eyes for the color green yet.

Contestant number two:

There's that pesky purple again, but what can I say...I like purple. Tulips are my favorite flowers, especially purple ones

Contestant number three:

While still purple, it's of a different more tolerable hue. I like the one yellow dafodil standing alone in a sea of purple tulips and represents me.

and contestant number four:

A mermaid theme to go with my interest in collecting mermaids.

Keep in mind these are just schemes and not actual templates. The finished product may be slightly different, but you get the jest.

Please. Help a libra out and vote for your favorite blog scheme for Contemblogging won't you?
