I'm baaaack AGAIN! :-p
I looked this old journal up from a link someone was kind enough to give me. I saw that there is still the 30 day free trial subscription, but for some reason, my meager posts are still standing after all these years, and I have never gotten past this 'trial'.
I have been all different kinds of places over the INTERWEB. I have made friends and lost friends. I still have about 5 of the people I met at 20six.co.uk in my life in one degree or another. I recently re-visted that journal, which miraculously made it through the Great Migration after all. I have swept out the cobwebs and updated a tiny bit. I am a little in flux at this time, not being able to decide who I want to present as. It's all the same biaatch, you know, just a few twists or turns to keep my anonymity because I kinda sorta value my life--less now than when I started all this.
I have LOST some friends too. I used to be close to 'cj' here. She is the reason I established this particular journal. She used to follow me over at Livejournal when I moved there as >>fuise<<. Then she got a bit annoyed at me because I couldna lift my posts out of the alley of depression. As I recall, my mum was dying of cancer, my job was made redundant, and I was just having a really hard time of it. But oh well, I understand people get tired of reading about negative shite all the time and require a bit of happy fantasy. After that, cj and I parted ways, and now I see she has disabled her comments, and I have no idea where or if she is blogging now. I will have to look around.
I myself have been a couple other places and established a post base which boggles even my pea brain. I am still there. I am doing well there. Just sometimes I miss my old chums. Some have followed me. 'Twould be nice if we were all together again. :)
I see I am so retarded I canny figure out how to add my email as a link because the list doesna take html, of course, so here is my email in case anyone would like contact me directly:

I'm baaaack!!
Just like the Terminator, I keep coming back. I just think it is so elegant over here and so quiet and peaceful, and the French countryside is so lovely and soul-inspiring (well, not talking about those riots that were in the paper a little while back...)
Over here, I have to behave myself and not mention anything vulgar or upsetting. I can pretend that my gaff is light and airy with a housekeeper to do those things I seem unable or too incompetent to do (i.e. clean and manage to get food in the house). I also don't have to climb a staircase to get to the 2nd story of my gaff like some people I know because we all know what would happen if I did (extreme personal injury and most likely sudden, or perhaps prolonged death). My personal secretary, whom I shall imagine looks like the alluring and provocative Sami Frey in his youth, makes sure that I am at all times well-organised and, shall we say, taken care of. (Sorry to end with a preposition.)
Boy, the more I blog about this, the better I can imagine it. Boy, can I imagine it! I might just pack up all my shite, er...belongings, and come over here to live permanently.
Just look at this layout? Is this not elegant and sophisticated? I mean, I was messing about with a scheme over at
Livejourbal, and it was so bright, it ended up looking like a cross between an Easter egg and the Irish Tricolour! I could NOT make the colours do what I wanted them to do. Here, all is colour-coordinated--well, with the exception of that lavendar Blogspirit bar on the top of my blog. It matches cj's blog, but it sorta clashes with mine. But that's probably because I don't pay any rent here. I'm sure all the freeloaders get the clashing blog bars.
Good heavens. I was just blogging along and a little window popped up and said my session would soon expire! It urged me to save my post. Do you think Blogspirit is trying to give me a nudge about being long-winded, perhaps boring? Right! That's all I need is my blogs rejecting me as well as everyone else. I guess I should hurry up here and close shop. I wanted to find a picture of the lovely and provocative Sami though before I go - just so this won't be a total waste of your time:
Baby, you can drive my car...
Well, I don't have a working car, but if I did, he could certainly drive it. He can drive anything of mine he wants as far as I'm concerned! ;-)

Thank you
I would like to thank Blogspirit for continuing to allow me to loiter here even though they have upgraded their site to PAY-only for new users. Thanks to cj, I have a small gaff here which I only use on certain bank holidays when I want to get out of Belfast and come to the French countryside. Evidently I will continue to be allowed to live here without paying rent. How wonderful! I'd say that in French, but I'd have to drag out the Google translator, and my head already hurts.

Hey! Hey! Hello!
I have come over here expressly so that I might make easy comments on cj's blog, but I must admit, I got an email from Blogspirit that was all in French, and since I don't speak French, it might have said,
Hello you ignorant blogger,
We are writing to you in French so you will feel very inferior to your bilingual cousins. Fortunately, your password at this time is in numerals, and we trust you are not too stupid to pick up on that!
We really don't understand why you feel it necessary to blog to the world about your petty, paltry, and putrid life, but if you must, we are semi-glad that you have chosen our service in order to do it. However, we hope you will loosen up the purse strings in the not-so-distant future and become a paying member of our site so our more affluent members will not have to continue to float your boat.
Have a good day, and consider language classes.
Thank you,
Blogspirit
