I give up on the internets

On the day, the very HOUR I am at work by myself with not much to do, livejournal takes a nosedive and doesn't come back up. I had FIC TO WRITE that I'd (now I realize very stupidly) been working on in private posts. Why would you do that I hear no one ask. Perhaps because for some reason at work, googledocs just won't work for me properly. I can log in but alas if I try to type anything it acts like it has to transcribe it by hand and it's like there's a minute delay between me typing a letter and it being able to bring it up on screen.

I think what the hell, I'll finally make myself a tumblr. Except, this site is basically making fun of me or something because not only can I not really figure out how to use it or find anyone, but after about an hour of tooling around (I haven't got the activation email yet so can't fix the big blank white space my tumblr is) I go to log back in because I've finally figured out how to find some people and COMPUTER SAYS NO. I click the login button and it shows the login box unclickable for an unfuriating few seconds and then reloads the front dashboard.

WHY INTERNET, WHY ARE YOU HATING ON ME?

Are we back?

Livejournal, I'm seriously trying to hang on, I don't want to quit you, but you keep freaking out and also telling me that unknown users are accessing my account when IT'S ALWAYS ME.

So, I made a tumblr. Or, well, I HALF-ASSED a tumblr before I realized that it might make me cry to keep trying to use it and then that site went down too. I'm kellifer-k on there but it's just an expanse of nothing that I haven't fixed yet because of aforementioned site down-age. However, I am going to try and figure this thing out so if you're on there, let me know because buggered if I can find out how to find people any other way other than asking them. (johanirae is the only person I have found and is therefore the only person I'm following at the moment).

It kind of scares me, so I'd also appreciate any noob tips. How do you get pictures/your profile/anything on the sidebars, is that all pages stuff? Ugh, I don't know, I love how this is advertised as a simple blog platform and my brain is all OH MY GOD NO, WHAT IS THIS FRESH HELL? Googling 'how do I use tumblr' isn't as helpful as you might think.

ETA: H-okay - I think I've figured this thing out, so for better or for worse, here i am on tumblr. My first act was to reblog something so I feel I'm getting into the spirit of the thing.
