Going Dark
No, it's not just you. The site underwent a surgery of sorts today. My family members' names are now Hollywood (me), Spike (the husband), Pixie (the two year old) and Cher (our infant diva). And if you asked me what town I live in I'd respond casually, "oh, somewhere in Southern California." But if you asked me what my favorite number was, I'd wouldn't be able to resist and would tell you "fourteen."
The site is anonymous. It had to happen eventually. Of course, it may be too late in the game to try and pull a stunt like this, but after reading a very convincing article and some chilling comments over at Segullah, I decided it was time to make the change. I've still got quite a bit of cleaning up to do around the internet which may take a few weeks, but hopefully in that time, I won't have to worry about creepy things happening to my pretty daughters or their photos. Also, please don't be offended when comments revealing our super-secret-identities are deleted. Just practice with me, "Hollywood, Spike, Pixie and Cher." Man, those sound dumb. But what's else can a gal do in this sick world? And honestly, I've always wanted to have a guy named Spike have the hots for me.
Oh, and if any of you have me blogrolled/linked under my accursed Christian name, please update it to just "Hollywood Flakes" or "Paranoid Mormon" or something like that. Thanks everyone!

there are some sick creepy's out there!
We really got ourselves in deep here, huh?
I'm just grateful to be moving soon, that will help my efforts immensely.
I saw that Seagullah phost (wasn't it by Johnna? Hi Johnna)...
Hmmm.. I use code names half the time, but the other half...hmmm.
Does this mean no pictures of the kids ever? The whole point of my blog is to keep the far away family up to date... not sure if I want to password protect...hm
Kerri, I haven't sent in the syllabus for that class yet. I go back and forth feeling like I have nothing to say on the subject to feeling like I have everything to say. I'd say there's a 65% chance I'll actually do it in January. It's quite a bit of work to get all the material organized. But then again, once I have it set up, it would be really easy to do every quarter for some easy cash.
I once heard an impassioned speech in church about keeping our families off the internet. I simply disagree. There are, of course, precautions to take so you don't invite trouble, but honestly, I find the concept of family blogging so wonderful. I should; I practically invented it.
My evil plan is totally working.
And possibly I need to ease up on the Dayquil.
