This Time of Year

I’m getting things done today! Not really though. I’ve been up an hour and I tried to work on getting another .nu in order, but the server went down. It must be International Server Down Day somewhere. I almost got jaded, while I was looking through some archives from 2000. I was so giddy and hopeful back then. The world, and the internet, were a great place. It’s getting close to the anniversary of the insane man who was ripping me off, and I think he’s been requesting my old Blogger stuff because every now and then I get Blogger requests for my username and URL. WTF? No, just no. There’s another anniversary coming up, too.

Seven years ago, two totally different people wanted both my sites when I said I was closing them down. Huh? To be honest, I said I was closing the sites, but they said they wanted my domain names, if I wasn’t going to use them. When I asked where to send the billing info, they both said I should keep paying for them. Huh?xs. One was an 11 year old girl and another was a 27 year old woman. Looking back, I could see that an 11 year old wouldn’t know anything about domains and things of that nature, but someone who is (now) my age? That’s a different story. When I re-opened this site in 2004, she went postal, claiming I “hijacked her domain name”. A year later, she came back with another site, making remarks that I had stolen her domain name again. She changed her story a little bit. This time she was an only child, when on her other page, she had “baby brothers”. People are strange.

These days, I pretty much ignore people like that. I had a couple of people contact me this year asking if I was ever going to use this site. Um, yeah, I am. Just because I don’t update it every day (then) doesn’t mean I don’t want it. Geepers. =D

I’m also not gonna do that whole “2000 EntreCard” thing. I might put up cards on my other blogs, but it’s just too time consuming.

I think I’ll go back to filling out Christmas cards. Ack! It isn’t even 9am yet!
