I received yet another, anger-filled message from the KCL individual and I will say that I won’t be posting there for awhile. That individual knows my Blogger account – apparently several of “them” do, but I don’t think they know about this one. Feedjit is very helpful in determing such things. Anyway, the statement was that I had posted a shitty message about that person and now that person basically hopes I do leave.
Whatever. If I had wanted to write a shitty message, I could easily revert back to my teen years where my mouth was akin to a flame-thrower with the intensity of hate and anger filled “messages” I had for most anyone. NO-ONE would read anything I had to say on any of my blogs if I were talking like THAT. I also learned from 16 years of marriage how to push buttons.
I have to say, honestly, that leaving any blogging host really doesn’t do much to me at this point. I mean, if I don’t blog at one place and someone wants to stay in touch, it isn’t all that difficult to simply go to that person’s site – wherever that may be – and visit them there. There are plenty of “ex” KCL-ers at this point all over the place.
We’ll see where this goes as I did respond, but not in kind, to the message and actually would rather hope for reconciliation than just the status-quo in such situations where people never talk to each other again. I don’t want to have to keep discussing this issue, but it isn’t going away yet.
I’m off work – and totally forgot to try downloading my KCL entries. Perhaps I can find a “freebie” software for temp use and do it that way. Whether I go back or not, I really want to get that stuff saved as I have this fear – whether quantifiable or not – that they are going to delete my journal and it will be forever lost. It was a pretty good blow to lose year’s worth of entries on JS, I would like to not have to go through that again.
There are other things going on in my life besides this stuff – the trailer tenants put the Mastercool up on the roof today. How they got it up there, I have no clue but for entertainment purposes I intend on reviewing video surveillance to see exactly how that guy and that girl lifted it up there. I seriously doubt the dude did it by himself.
Weekend plans are nothing great – just hanging out here at the house and attempting to get projects done.

Good luck with your projects, including saving as much of your kcl blog as possible as quickly as possible.

I had same such thoughts, especially after the last message I received from already-stated party. I do not have the necessary software on my computer, however and I totally forgot while I was at work on Friday. I would like to hope they would not do such a thing, or if they did, that they would save the journal and send me an email with said attachment. I do have pro-access.
Anyway, I just got through visiting the Scribs site – I hadn’t been there in a while and had absolutely no idea that he was in such dire straits. I also so your offer to him, did he contact you concerning such? I have also given him an on-going invitation for a place to stay if he finds himself without anywhere else to go.
