You will not

drag me, kicking and screaming, into the future of the technological world. I just won't do it.

Ok, so I'm just one of those people who likes things left just the way they are. Even if there's something better out there that'll make my life easier in the long run, I'm not interested. I know how this thing works, and I can work it well. Don't ask me to do it differently. Don't ask me to change mid-way through. I like consistency, bland, familiar. I could probably eat mashed potatoes three meals a day for the rest of my life and be content because I'd know what to expect and I would have to make any decisions.

So now, for two days in a row blogger won't let me publish comments on anyone's blog that I visit. I know it probably has to do with the new beta version and the fact that everyone seems to be switching over. Me, I just don't see the point in it. Why throw out a perfectly good and comfortable pair of shoes just because there's a new model on the shelf?

So, yes, I haven't upgraded, don't want to. Maybe that's just be being dumb and short-sighted. So what? But now blogger won't let me comment at all. Some tech monkey is sitting there sipping his Starbucks overpriced and bitter latte and laughing at me, I'm sure, but I'm just paranoid enough to believe that it's not allowing me just so that I'll give in and upgrade.

A similar thing happened when Gretchen first updated her blog, but I could still post anonymously. Now, even as anonymous, it won't let me. Ugh.

Please don't force me to step out of my comfort zone. Anyone else out there having a similar problem?
