After looking at your homepage, I'll second the recommendation for moveable type. It's easy to install, Perl, and uses DBM and templates.
I've been playing around with it on both FreeBSD and Win32. The code looks reasonably clean.
The roll-your-own route is tempting. I've done that a few times, and have several Wiki clones running in production serving various private communities. It depends on what you want to do. Wiki is a great collaborative tool. It lets the community shape the site. The various blogging tools set the shape of the site in wet concrete. Your site looks much more like a flat weblog.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
