Hello, World!

Well, this seems as good a time as any for this post. September first has always seemed a significant date; summer is over, school is right around the corner, the days are shorter and the nights are a little colder.

At least, that's what it feels like. It's still summer for the better part of the month, school starts at some ungodly early date in late August (at least, it did during my childhood), and the nights are warm enough that you can't fall asleep without the fan on, but you have to creep across the frozen bedroom at 2:00 am to turn it off.

I had a point, but I can't remember what it was.

At any rate, I've been planning the conversion of this website to WordPress for a long time (like, a long time; I installed it years ago, and haven't really used it until now). Prior to that, it went through several different configurations, losing content each time. If you can believe it, SacredPotato.com used to be a well-maintained and frequently-updated site with regular features and a constant stream of new, downloadable music. At some point Real Life got in the way and I began updating less and less. So, I'm starting over and giving it another go, this time with WordPress because really, who does all their web design manually in a text editor anymore?

Anyway, welcome back. I promise there'll be more content and regular updates. At the very least I should have replaced the bog-standard WordPress aesthetics by the time you see this (because trust me, nobody is going to notice this post when it first goes up).
