Yay, back up!

My two sites, and others under fairy blogmother Lynn Siprelle’s wand, were down this morning. Lynn explains here. If I had to lose service, I’m proud it was due to blocking porn uploads on a site intended to help teenage mothers.

Pretty much every day, I delete new subscribers on this blog who are obviously not real people. Some e-mail addresses are give-aways (hmm, a “nude-pix.com” address, wonder if that might be a spammer?), other robots sign in with a string of letters that couldn’t mean anything even in this acronym-crazed town. But what was most interesting to me was that when my parents were visiting and I wasn’t posting much, the robot sign-ins also decreased dramatically. Who knew they care about readership statistics?

Anyway, normal service will now resume. Whatever “normal” means these days, which I’d be hard pressed to articulate.
