Laelia Sky Wesley

Can I get a bunch of people together to track down and cover with goo all the bullies that have written me lately? Yes, that is what justice calls for, a good gooing. Most of them are ads promoting themselves as friends commenting about Laelia, then if you approve their comment they torment you with endless ads for RING TONES!!! Or worse, porn. But there are also bullies who by sheer cowardice write mean things to me through this site or youtube, thinking that anonymous messages about how my daughter is ugly or “deformed” are funny. That’s cyberbullying, kids, and McGruff don’t like that.

Speaking of cyber-related things, most or all of you have probably received an invitation from me to sign up for Yaari.com. This is a shameless bit of spam that sends out emails to your entire address book if you sign up for it. The email guilt trips people into thinking that if they don’t click on the “Is Alexis your friend?” link then I will receive this information and think they hate me. It follows up the email by saying, “Please respond or Alexis might think you said no. :(”

I fell for it after receiving a message from a co-worker who was leaving the company. I thought it was a way for him to stay in contact with everyone, so of course I would sign up (to his Indian love site? Okay, Jon, whatever) and be his friend. Well, just like he didn’t send out all those messages, I didn’t send out the subsequent mass mailing either.

Actually I have the perfect punishment for cyberbullies! Tie them to a chair and force them to feed my daughter peas and carrots! It’s the most disgusting/adorable thing you’ve ever seen. She recently learned to spit them out of her mouth a good foot’s distance. (She once got me right in the face.) Then have those dumb cyberbullies call different government assistence programs and daycares… ugh, no don’t do that. I’m not that cruel.

Welcome to the new home for all things Laelia-related. CaringBridge was helpful up to a point, but we’re ready to cast off its limitations and go for a full-fledged blogging platform. Huge thanks go to good friends Bolt and Fjord, who had this site up and running about two-and-a-half hours after I asked for help.

You’ll note that a few things are missing from the site, like a photo gallery and guestbook. Those should be coming very soon. In the meantime, you can use the box at the right to subscribe to email updates, or add us to your favorite RSS reader. Also, you can now comment on specific posts directly.

Thanks, as always, for all your prayers and assistance. We appreciate it.
