I’ve decided to make it my commitment to write here daily starting in May.
However….
The anonimity and security of this blog has potentially been breached. Because of it, I’m considering password protecting the whole thing, not just posts.
However…
I think that if I password protect the whole blog, it won’t update to your feeds, and you will have to manually come see if something’s new.
So. I will investigate and, if feeds still work, you, faithful readers, will have to get a WordPress account to log in and read the posts.
If feeds get stuck, then I will just password protect every single post, like I’ve been doing so far. Thing is… do I want to retroactively password protect almost three years worth of posts? Ugh!
Email me if you want the password. I know who is a faithful reader and therefore will allow you in. I don’t think I have lurkers, so I think pretty much everyone who reads, I know, but still.

I’m obviously a big fan of password protection. I support that, completely. There are a few blogs I read that are private and I just go to them every few days to see if there’s a new post.

Hi there. I’m Jill, the one who dated that Jersey boy that I wrote about on Ulli’s blog today. Glad you got a kick out that.
I came over here to check out your blog and then saw that you’re experiencing the same thing I did a little while back. I figured out people I knew were reading my blog and was on a mission to block them out. I didn’t want to password protect the whole blog because it won’t update in anyone’s feed (I also had a wordpress blog and I checked on this). So, I literally password protected every single post I’d written over a 2 year period of writing every day. Then, I told my readers to email me to get the password. Someone who’d long pretended to be some chick from Texas wrote and asked me for the password. I thought she was genuinely some Texas girl. She’d been pretending to be a random reader for so long that I would never have considered I was being scammed. So, I gave “her” the password, kept blogging and then later learned that this Texas Girl was really someone I personally knew from Toronto.
So….just be very careful, whatever you do. Good luck!

once you password protect the whole blog, it won’t show up in feed readers any more. i have a couple blogs i used to read daily but i just kinda “forget” since they don’t show up in my reader any more… so protecting each individual entry works much better in my opinion
