# Editing sidebar text

 * I feel like I’m missing something really simple and will feel quite stupid after
   I get the answer to this, but poking around in my dashboard and searching this
   site hasn’t helped.
 * My wordpress blog (using the default theme) has a sidebar on the right side that
   includes a link list, etc. But at the very top there’s a section with the header“
   About the blog owner:” and a little description I wrote about a year and a half
   ago. I’d like to update the text in that “About the blog owner” section, but 
   I cannot remember or figure out where I go to do that.
 * *headdesk*
 * Help?

 * Nope, I checked that, but that’s different text. 🙁

 * It’s not a widget? Or a theme option under appearances?
