No More PPP.

I had to delete all my posts here that had anything to do with Payperpost. Lost a bit of money but I'm just happy that I got my blog back. PPP suspended my account because they know they're not allowed to be there. So to answer your question Abby, no I wasn't banned from too much swearing hahaha (do I swear that much??). So in the grand scheme of things, you know what this means. I'll have to build this site up as I did the other one so I can increase my page rank in order to qualify for some good PPP posts. Sorry, it's the money hungry in me guys. That said, I might be backing off from wordpress and making myself comfortable here in order to do just that. Trying to figure out how to make this place look nicer as the free templates have got to go -- big time. I just wish I was computer literate enough to know how to get things done. Tsk tsk. I also want to put up a blog on my own domain (am I even saying it right?!) but I don't know which to go with (what's expensive and what's not?). It hurts not to know enough about the internet, I tell you. Would you believe I took an HTML class in college, learned how to create my own homepage from scratch (inputting codes or something) and scored an A? How I did that, I have no idea. So it was an introductory course, fine but at least I knew a little HTML. So anyways, if you have any suggestions as to where I should put up a new home without having to use these free domains, let me know. I would love to be enlightened.

My mom is back from Alaska in a few hours. She has my Alaskan king crabs! Yummmmmm-o! My cholesterol is going to shoot way up but that's how it'll have to be for tonight. I am going to feast!

More stories to come.

And So It Happened.

It was only a few days ago through an email from Joy did I hear about Wordpress shutting down websites with paid Payperpost posts. I'd yet to receive "the email" about being given 7 hours to back up my blog. So imagine my surprise a few minutes ago when I saw I couldn't access my Wordpress blog anymore. Where was my supposed email with my 7 hours to pack up and say goodbye? I don't understand. I knew my time would come but I didn't think it would happen today -- and without so much as a warning! Though, thanks in part to Joy, I should have acted accordingly and followed her advice to back up my blog at that moment. Who's the sorry @ss now?

So if you're here because you saw I've been shut down (or will be), welcome. Make yourselves comfy as this is where I'll be hanging out for the meantime. I'll have this place cleaned up in no time. Corny as it sounds, I'm a little sad that I wasn't able to save some of my entries from Wordpress. Nevermind the money I'll have lost from PPP -- so many memories I'd documented there that I've now lost forever :(. What a bummer. Ugh. I so need some proper closure.

Bastards!
