As you can see, I’ve disabled my website completely. I no longer will maintain a personal website and blog…and I will no longer read the blogs/journals of others. I’ve decided that overall, they’re not a good use of time and often fill cyberspace with negativity.

Anyway, I’m putting this page up for those of you who linked here from deadjournal. Wow, that was some entry, don’t ya think?

I’d like to comment on two issues from the dj post –1) my name calling to the author and his girlfriend and 2) my stalking of the author.

So here goes:
1) name calling---Okay, frankly, I was po’d by the weird mall parking lot encounter with the two of you a few weeks ago….but did I need to question your manhood or the age appropriateness of your behavior? No. Did I need to ponder the sincerity of your girlfriend’s membership with Amnesty Int’l? No, I did not. I do apologize for airing my thoughts publicly. It will not happen again.

2) stalking---Okay, you caught me…you found out. Yes, me along with my family drove by your house…but you think it’s because I’m an over zealous fan? Nope. Don’t get me wrong. I think your band is fantastic and completely motivated to go places but come on…music, musicians, and the music business have been a constant in my life. I have met and hung out with major successful rock stars (you should read their bios), I have friends and family that have gone far in the music industry with videos on MTV, songs on major motion picture soundtracks, or songs played on prime time tv shows…I know people who own music recording studios…my friend Kathy has an entertainment company in Philly…I have a friend who works for SONY music and yet another who has photographed top headliners at concerts in major cities all over the east coast. Believe me, I don’t get that worked up over some high school guys in a band. Boys with guitars don’t intrigue me that much either; I play also so it’s nothing that hot or edgy to me.

So, here’s the reason my family drove by your house…Ready? It was Christmastime and we were looking at Christmas decorations…Yup…That’s all it was. True, as you pointed out, your home is wayyyy out of the way from my house, but it is pretty darn close to Wendy’s in Latham, you must admit. One night in December, we grabbed a bite to eat there. We had some time to kill so we decided to check out some holiday lights. I knew that you lived nearby, actually in the same neighborhood of several people I know…Also, my mom has a friend on your street…So, we figured, why not?…you and I were friendly at the time…I didn’t think it would offend you in the least…and yes, you also asked how I knew where you lived in your deadjournal post? Well, I knew because I had been there with you just a month or so before…remember…you wanted to change your shirt or something before the cast went to the movies. Recall that now? Anyway, back to the neighborhood light show…we checked out your house (nice display by the way) and the others of those we know up there. From there, we drove out to Vly again and out to Colonie to see more. We had a great time. So there you have it….the reason we ventured by your home. Just looking for a little holiday fun…that’s all…no harm was intended.

Hopefully, I’ve cleared up any misunderstandings and hopefully, I have managed to knock myself a few notches down on the “CreepO Meter”.

Peace,
Amy
