Now What?

So here we sit in the possibly post-bloggerated.com era, And it's kinda depressing. I want to throw out a dot com here and there. It's easier to send people my way. I can't do that. I can, but the free URL is ugly and clunky. I believe if I make a phone call, I might be able to sort this thing out but I'm not that desperate. I hate making phone calls. 

So does anyone have another idea? Do you think I should rename the blog? I think it would be easier to get a brand new name than trying to get the old name back. Not sure. Got any ideas?
