no.28 - The Hostaroo

If you attempted to visit 1,000 demons in the last 24 hours, you were greeted by a pop up window asking for your User Name and Password. You probably fled, annoyed or confused, many of you not to return. Those of you who did, thanks for your patience.

Why did this happen? I have theories. My hosting company says they turned off all of my web sites because I was over my bandwidth for the month. This is possible. Possible but strange - neither of my two statistics trackers show more visits or usage on my sites than in previous months.

This was frustrating, but the simple solution was to increase my bandwidth usage - a simple matter of a few clicks from the right person. Unfortunately, the first three persons were the wrong people - either without access, or motivation or concern for my tenuous mental health.

But I am hesitant to criticize because I do not yet have all the excuses facts. And, whether they are in the right or wrong, taking this site back down is only a few clicks away for the wrong Meatball & Beagle-loving, Bannana-nub advocate/Lara Flynn Boyle fan at my hosting company who does not like being criticized.

*phew* Glad to see you back! I was worried that Ms. Flynn Boyle had come calling.

I was one of the annoyed ones, but I'm glad I tried again (and again) - this project is incredibly entertaining and I wish you well on your journey to #1000!
