I suppose it was just a matter of time. Allow me to explain. For about 5-6 years now, I have been using the username idioticidioms wherever I visit. I have e-mail addresses at AOL, Yahoo, Comcast, Hotmail, and GMail under this username. I no longer use my hotmail address due to a loss of password and it has been changed to idiomsofidiocy. I have also started a website and messageboard under the name idioticidioms, through geocities and phpbb, which have been discontinued due to lack of traffic. I have also used the name idioticidioms at various messageboards and online communities. So you can imagine my roadblock when I went to use it as Livejournal.com. It lead me here, and I will also be delivering the same message to the link on the main page of this website which leads to KateAustin.net.
Please observe that I am not staking any claim to this name, even though it irks me a little that someone else has been using it. This website seems to have been going on for a bit too long to stop it now, even if I had anything as substantial as a copyright to ensure the name belongs to me. That isn’t my intent. My intent is to let you know that you have company out here.
Kate E. Austin was raised in Killington, Vermont, and now resides in Glens Falls, New York. She exhibits her artwork locally and is available for commissions and website design. Visit KateAustin.net for more original art!
