I bought my own domain. Everything will be under "littlepdog.com" once the transaction clears my account.

Good stuff Pdog!
Smart move to get your own domain and move it from the free WP to the more professional looking paying WP, get your hosting through a site like godaddy.com or hostgator (the one I personally have been using for years for my sites) for about 5 to 10 bucks a month. At first get the baby package for about 4 or 5$/month, then once you have more sites, upgrade to the pro pack for unlimited sits for about 10$/month.
Good stuff man, we'll all be reading and cheering for you to make it happen. You already have a major headstart over many many many guys out there. I wish I had your headstart when I was 17. Now, don't make stupid decisions, stay out of debt, make cash while building protable businesss and by the time you're 22-23, if you play your card right, you'll be living the international playboy lifestyle too. Any help, just ask here and we'd be happy to assist in any shape or form.
Enjoy brother.

I already have a second post published. A third one and a big one all done ready for tomorrow. Plus a few others already waiting to be written. It's a brain dump. I'm overcome with ideas I'm afraid I might go on a blogging frenzy. I could have five long posts total by the end of the day it's insane. I'll restrict to one post a day maximum from here on.
Edit: Anybody know how to install Email subscriptions on WordPress?
Edit: torontokid helped me out. One last question: Does the number on my Stats page include my own IP viewing the blog or only other people?

You can install email subscriptions with Feedburner. Google "Feedburner Wordpress Plugin" and you will probably find what ya need.

Thanks dude, I got it up and running on the page. As for monetizing it, nahh not this. I have other sites to work on and I want to leave this not for profit. Besides, it's too small to make any serious cash out of. Maybe a long time from now once I made a name for myself.
