Hello Stfarm, in case you are still receiving comments, let me tell you I really like the concept of the site, the one column with two sidebars. I am not a designer, nor a programmer, only a writer. But here it goes:
It seems you need a “gutter” or some margin on the main column, the left side of the blog. The letters begin way to close to the left margin of the blog; also, the blog’s margins could be “embelished” by some gradient effect, and in any case the divisory line should be finer IMHO, the line that’s there now it’s just too thick and black. Make it softer and add some margin.
Also, there is too much space between the main column and the neighboring sidebar, it’s pretty glaring to me to see on the one hand the lack of margin on the left, and on the other too much margin on the right… it’s as though the text of the main column needs to be “centered” so that it has a nice margin on each side.
A very thin “hair” of a line should probably be added to divide the two sidebars, because right now the lack of a clear frontier makes it messy, depending of how thick is the ad on each side bar. Also, I don’t think the horizontal lines separating the myriad ads on the sidebars are very good… I would eliminate them completely, and add the dividing thin line between sidebars. Perhaps a slight coloring or background shade could be added to both sidebars for clarity. Look at the relaxation theme here, it uses the shade to separate the two sidebars very nicely:

Finally, the top header image is not integrated, looks too flat, perhaps rounding the borders a bit a la Kubrick with some white, or like in the relaxation theme. As it is now it looks a bit raw, like added as an afterthought.
I really like your theme, so this critique is in self-interest, as I would like to have a copy of it 🙂
