Insecurity and Boredom

Many of my friends have blogs. I go to their blogs, and they have adorable, creative, artsy layouts. Then I go to my own blog, which is utilitarian, like I am. And I wanted to try something new. Something Garden-y. I like the sunflowers, but the white text is a little hard to read, imo.

What do you think?

Oh, and besides cutestblogontheblock.com and pyzam.com, where do you people get cool layouts?

I'm too busy weeding to figure this all out. I should hire someone.
