Brain Not Working

So Ken got home from his stupid business trip yesterday, and we had a big old Clan Donaldson party.  Which was fun, but it resulted in a Saturday morning with a tequila headache, bread bloat, and 5 pounds of cheese weight gain.

All of this has conspired to make me very stupid right now, and I can't figure out how to get these things:
on my blog.  I love the fisher cats and all, but spring approacheth and I like to change things up from time to time.

But I don't like the way those buttons look.  I want them pretty, like these:

(camp patton, rockstar diaries, housewifespice)
See?  Pretty.  But I can't figure out where to get these buttons.  Or my own buttons.  Or the feedburner bar to display my 22 feedburner subscribers (I love you, 22 feedburner subscibers).

Curse you tequila, bread, and cheese.  You make for a good party, but lousy blog design.

UPDATE:  I found this idiot-proof tutorial on Twin Tough and followed it to make the brand spanking new blog buttons you see over there on the upper left sidebar.

  1. I google "add cute social media buttons to blog", and cut and pasted html code into blogger. The super easy steps showed me where to input my own pinterest address, facebook id, etc. If I can do it, surely you can.

  5. Now it pretty much looks like you just have a fisher cat for a pet.

  6. Haha, Dwija!

    Looks great, Donaldson! Is it weird to say I envy your tequila headache? I have a mild Korean-beer headache, and it's just not the same.

  8. You know, I'm having old blog blues. I wonder if the desire to change it up is just part of spring cleaning?
