9.21.03: The Ugly Truth
Iparenting removed my last entry and the messages on my board pertaining to that entry. That’s fine. I was telling the truth and am asserting my right to free speech in my diary. I write about the good, the bad, and the ugly. Apparently they didn’t like the ugly truth. This is my diary, right? The bottom line is two women who used to write diaries on this very site stalked me down. One of them flew halfway across the country and the other one lives across town. They came to my house and sat on my lawn, took pictures of themselves and posted them on their web pages making fun of my neighborhood.
Stalking is fine as long as it doesn’t happen to you or your family. Another former writer (Lori W) was stalked through her MT diary. She was scared and requested that her diary be removed and she changed her email address. Mary was hassled by a stalker for the past several months on the “Due in September” board and finally had enough. She “caught” the person and "outed" her. Turns out that Mary's stalker was one of her co-workers. So many writers get intimidated and close their diaries in fear. I am not afraid, nor am I frightened. I also am not stupid.
It’s time for everyone to move along. Just be aware that people are capable of doing these things, and I decided to talk about it in my diary. This is where I talk about my life and unfortunately some of it isn’t pretty.
If anyone wants to email me, here is my email address: millimaki@yahoo.com I have appreciated all the supportive messages through private emails.
And, no. I am not closing my diary. This is the place where I get to talk about myself and my family. If you want to read about it, then see you here.
Warmly,
Megan
