 * Hello, I’m totally new to wordpress and I’m also not really proficient in php
   either so I hope you bear with my questions.
 * Well my problem is I want to delete a key that says ‘Current Mood:’and I can’t
   seem to do it. Its just there I’m not using it in any posts. I just want to delete
   it cause its idle and useless. I’ve read the [delete_post_meta](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/delete_post_meta)
   page already, but now my problem is where do i put the codes?
 * I’m sorry if you are little annoyed. I’ve done my best to use google search engines
   and wordpress docs but i cant seem to have the right key words if there is a 
   topic about it already.
 * Thanks for help!
