Five days ago, I began having extremely bad problems with my hosting account, which was box 350 (server). I feel sorry for the poor souls on that box. As described in my previous post, I started getting cpu quota exceeded errors 20-30 times per day. I called my host over 70 times this week, and that song they play when you’re on hold will cause me to explode in a frenetic rage of blackened anger – I heard it for hours.

It’s been a very interesting week here in the blogosphere! Though I’ve been busy working, it somehow made me feel alive again – perhaps from the overall change. I’ve had some server issues with my site. Of course this is my host’s fault and I wish they would just admit it! Below is a picture (entitled “Stress”) which exemplifies exactly how I felt trying to write this during a storm of server inflicted blogging madness. Just seeing this picture made me feel better!
Not all the posts listed are new. One thing I don’t like about blogging is that a post will die and be forgotten so quickly. I really enjoy reading through archives; you should try it sometimes!
Square1 wrote a great little poem The Untamed Pen. I read several poems on her blog and had a very enjoyable experience. I really loved Banging On Glass Walls; a powerfully poetic and introspective work.
The Sandman wrote Chp 163. Sex, drugs and North-east girls. This starts with a brilliant poem and then to a revealing article. The Sandman (Kima Mizoram) is a truly gifted writer. If you have never read his work, this is a great place to start!
Mitchell Allen wrote St. Valentine’s Day Mascara. It starts with a interesting picture and then to the humorous and wonderfully intricate poem, Ode To a Cornish Hen!
TIV wrote a post filled with wise advice on Psychotropic Medication. There is much bad advice on depression out there, which is one reason she wrote it. Thanks TIV!
Jamilla is having My First Ever Contest: Share Your Happy Moments With Jamy! Jamy is a super nice person and needs some participation. I’ll have my entry done in the next few days.
Andrea wrote Leaving Comments On Blogs which is about a situation that happened to her when she gave someone some honest and polite advice. This uncomfortable situation has probably happened to you too!
Marzie is having a new contest Who Wants a Mariuca CNY Mug? It’s easy to enter and lots of fun; be sure to check it out. I won her last contest and can’t wait to receive my wonderful mug! Thanks Marzie!
Teeni wrote about her not so great experience in a restaurant Applebee’s – Saved by the Waiter. I can relate because I worked in Applebee’s for a short period of time!
Laila posted How to cope with depression. This is a funny little video that incited a sarcastic giggle out of me. Thanks Laila!
Finally, Beaman opened a can of intensely debating worms in his take on Islamic fanaticism. I suggest you read his post Something to Think About. Be sure to read all the comments as it is a heated debate (especially the discussion between himself and Laila). Whether you agree with him or not, the discussion is important to read. While you are there, read some of his great poetry!
The “Stress” picture is from Tech It Easy’s Jeremy on his post, The rise and demise of productivity software. Be sure to check out his great tech oriented blog.
