Baby Blogger Drama
I'm so totally and completely po'd right now b/c fucking Blogger made me switch. I had been magically eluding this phenomenon that I kept seeing other bloggers bitch about. There was one other time when they tried to make me switch and there was something - something - that I did to prevent it from happening. I'm just used to the old blogger, what can I say. The technology wasn't broken, it was perfectly clear to me, and now I'm worried it's either going to be so dumbed down that it will simply be insulting, or else complicated in unneccesary ways. Fuck. Cranky. Should be sleeping. Worked a 2nd and I'm basically just being a grumpy baby about this blogger shit, but oh well. My posts have been sucking, it's been duly noted in a note to myself.
Addendum! The outrage continues! Now you have to agree to their terms of service when it comes to uploading photos, something I just attempted to do, but then decided against after having read the terms, which in nutshell state that Google has the right to copy any images from your blog to use as they see fit. This is total bullshit. I may need to find a new place to blog. I'll let you know where it is, if and when I find it. I'm not down with this brave new world shit. I feel like my blog has been violated. It gives me the creeps.

AHHH.... i wondered when it would happen to the rest of the blogger world. good luck with it! how was your weekend?
I'm still really upset about it! And I'm quite serious about using another host for my blog. I know that technically there's probably little that has changed, in terms of privacy, "copyrighting" of images etc., maybe that stuff was the same before, but I don't remember having to sign off on an agreement relative to image uploading and publishing before. It's not that I think anyone will necessarily care about any images I put on my blog, it's the principal of the whole thing. Fuckers! I remain totally po'd!!!!
Weekend was ok. Drank too much vodka Saturday night - fun, though!
