blogging for dummies

i have realized that html makes me feel utterly stupid. i know that i have the brain capacity to figure it out, but i just cant quite make that last crucial leap. it is so frustrating. i can see in my head how i would like my blog to look, but i cant make it happen. it must be similar to being a baby and not being able to talk. collette communicates just fine with her squeals and grunts, but you can tell she wants to say so much more. me too. i want to design, post, upload, whatever you call it, so much more on this dumb thing.
