Going Private


We've heard enough horror stories that we have decided to make our blog private.

However...

the reason we update our blog is to amuse, entertain, or help you feel better about yourselves.

Therefore...

we need visitors to make the updating time worth while (or is it worth wild?).

So...

if you want to keep having access to our blog, we will send you an invite. Just leave us a comment and tell us so and we'll e-mail you an invite. Even if you don't know us all that well, we're happy to have you peeking in on our lives, as long as we know you somewhat.

So go ahead, click on the comment section and tell us so. If we don't have your current e-mail, you might need to e-mail us to tell us so (or you can leave it in the comment section if you're comfortable with that).

Our e-mail is: xarthog at hotmail dot com

(For those who are not familiar with blogger, going private means you will have to be invited and have a password to look at our blog in the very near future).

UPDATE: This is not us trying to exclude people from getting to know us. We're glad that friends of our parents, and people we haven't seen in years, and even random friendly people have visited our blog. However, we have three very pretty little girls and we live within walking distance of quite a few registered offenders. We don't want to stop posting pictures of our daughters or sharing personal details about ourselves. That's the whole point. We just want to be safe. Anyone is welcome to an invite, we only ask that you introduce yourselves. Example: "Hi. I'm Boba Fett. I'm a friend of your mom's and I love your blog. Here's my email: bountyhunter4hire at clonedman.com."
Easy, right?

It is sad, but we've been getting some weird comments from weird people, and according to statcounter, we were getting people from all over the world looking at one particular post that happened to have the words "sexy" and "preteen" in it. So, yeah. I'd rather not do it either, but there are definitely some creepies out there.

I assume your immediate family would sort of automatically get invites, but in case you weren't thinking like that, please invite me, and your dad, and your sisters, and Terry Kaiser, who's life would be null and void without reading your blog. Love, Mom

PS - Don't make the mistake of discussing new concepts like impending fog with a 2 1/2-year-old at bed time.

It looks like Mom took care of my invite already, but I want to make doubly sure I'm invited to the party. It is a party, isn't it?
