dang it.

okay all you stinkin' spam bloggers out there. i am officially ticked off at you.
thanks for being so annoying and pervasive that i must resort to drastic measures.
you've really figured out how to beat the system.

but guess what. you haven't beat me yet. i can go private. and you can go to @#$%.

so to all my lovely friends. it's time. i hate the private button. but i do love you.
please please, please, take the time to leave me your e-mail address, so's i can leave you and invite. even if you are a friend, of a relative, of a friend, of someone i know. just tell me who you are and how you know me (admittedly i'll most likely figure that part out on my own) and that you'd like to keep reading. i know there are lurkers out there ( i'm talking about you rochester ny, Rachel?) and i would be oh so flattered to know who you are and why you read.

take that dirty rotten spammers.

I hate them too! That's why I went private. I would love to continue to be a reader-brookee89@gmail.com

I hope I can get it to work with my RSS - I just read them that way - it's so much easier than going to every blog to see if someone has updated or not.

I have been enjoying seeing Alaska. My sister and brother were both born there. I fell on some ice and my front 2 teeth abcessed and I had to have them pulled. I love the posts.

Sorry about spammers. Please include me in your invitations list. 'Cause we're friends, right??

BTW, there are some things you can do to avoid spammers while still being public. Check out your settings, under 'basic.' You can opt out of being searchable and being included in blogger listings. That might help???

We sent a bunch of emails to an email address that was simply called "Maggie" After a few weeks, I got an email from them asking, "Who are you?"
Oops!

With everyone of these "GOing Private" posts, I just know it's a matter of time until I do the same. I'm just too lazy to do it myself right now. Anyway, love to blurk in on your life! -Susie

Mary Monster Mary said...

darn spammers! I am about to do the same but maybe I'll try changing my settings. Not that anyone reads mine. I get the occasional person but not like you. I mean look you already have 21 people who have dedicated time to read the thoughts of Maggie! That's so impressive. I was always afraid you were a bit too cool for me. Feeling pretty lucky right now. :)

Emilee said...

What kind of spam bloggers? Sad--but make sure you keep me.

emileewells AT hotmail

And if you can avoid the privateness, please do. It doesn't work with Google Reader, which makes me crazy.

Jami said...

if you do go private then it's jami.hardy@gmail.com
If you can't remember how you know me then don't add me to your list! :) Did I miss what's going on? What do you mean spam blogger? Do I need to be aware of something on my own blog?

Travis and Jamie said...

How do you know you got spammed?? I so don't understand. But...I would love to be invited to your blog if ya do go private: ttshepdmd@gmail.com.

Erin said...

Like what is happening? I have never had any problems. I am trying to figure out what's going on.

Jessica Y. said...

Maggie,
I frequently pop in to see what's going on in Alaska. If you go private I would love to keep following.
