Update on my shiny new InsaneJournal

I'm there! As far as I can tell, all my old LiveJournal posts (sans comments) have made it over and are archived. I will, within the next week or so, check against my LiveJournal, to see if anything is missing and fix that. :-)

Okay, this will sound melodramatic, but it felt like I was running away from an oppressive regime, coming to (the idealized) America. I could see the Statue of Liberty and people with open arms (no Ellis Island), waiting to welcome me to FREEDOM! Everyone at InsaneJournal has been so nice and helpful! I'm lovin' it there!

So come and visit me there! And if you are an LJer, please consider making the jump yourself! Here is where I "live" now:

CountryMouse's Refuge

I am "permanently insane" (IOW, I bought a permanent account)--heh. :-P

Moving

(cross-posted from my Blog 365 blog)

I have been trying to find out more about what's been going on at LiveJournal this past year. Well, I finally am getting some answers and they're scary. Censorship like crazy.

A long-time friend on LiveJournal told me about InsaneJournal, which uses the same Open Source code that LJ uses. I went there and started up an account tonight. I looked at their TOS. Then I started reading posts in the Refugees community. Scary stuff.

I purchased a permanent account at InsaneJournal tonight.

So after I back everything up from LiveJournal and am sure I'm ready to go, I will be switching my main link and feed link [on Blog 365] from LiveJournal to InsaneJournal.

Remember the cluuue

(You Don't Know Jack! reference)

My main blog is CountryMouse's LiveJournal [EDIT: Nooooo, I'm on InsaneJournal now! All my LJ archives are there too! See you there, I hope!].

I wish I knew more...

I wish I knew how to make this blog look "cool" with all the things that other women bloggers put on the sidebars of theirs. I just don't understand the code, it totally throws my brain for a loop. That's one of the reasons I have never done much with this blog.

I think that this could even be put onto my own site, but I just feel like it's a beast I don't know how to handle. So...I leave it alone.

Resuscitation + Blog 365

Heh. Looks like I might be using this little blog off and on after all, because I just joined THIS:

So this is one of the places where I might end up posting!

Whoa, I actually have a blog here

I can't believe I have this many blogs. ::sigh:: I might need this one someday (???), so I guess I'll keep it. But my main ones are on the right sidebar: CountryMouse's Diary (on my site), my LiveJournal [EDIT: now my InsaneJournal, with all LiveJournal archives there too], my Yahoo! 360* blog. I have a couple others, but they are a secret--shhhh! :-P

We are stuck in the hot summertime right now. I long for autumn and cooler temperatures! We even hit the century mark (100*F.) two days ago! Urgh!

I can't think of another blessed thing to say here, since I've already posted to my other blogs/diaries/journals/etc. LiveJournal is pretty much the nexus. Hmm. I need to rearrange my links.

HATS!

Here are three FO's I did in the last few days. I especially like the white hat in the middle--you can vary its look with bows, barrettes, pins, whatever!
