Seasons, fall, stand up.

House flooded, basement smells of mold and frustration.

Kids arguing, frustration floods me.

Summer gone, falling to Fall, girls older, boy bigger.

Cold wind through shoddy windows, need replaced, frustration.

Laughing at myself, my self reflection seems gone. This isn’t about me, it’s about doing what needs done, for girls and boy and wife and home.

Seasons, fall, stand up.

    Hello,
    I found your site on google when I was searching for scribble.nu content, hoping to get any clue on how I could retrieve my old diary with the help of archive.org or something. I surprisingly saw that you used to run scribble.nu and I would like to ask if you can help me. I wrote almost daily on scribble for about two years, 98-99 or 99-00 or something, and stupidly didn`t do backups. I remember I had a couple accounts (jonah, kingpain, painking and maybe other I can`t remember). I abandoned my journals for a while and when I came back I couldn`t login cos I didn`t have a paid account – all I want is to know if there is ANY chance that you still have the members database, so I can retrieve my old entries. I managed to retrieve something through archive.org at the time i realized I had lost everything, but for some reason it`s not working anymore. It is very possible that my registration email at the time was resg@theway.com.br, but I`m not really sure of that.
    I know I lack information but I would love you forever if you could answer me, even if it`s to say you can`t help.
    Thank you,
    Renata

  2. Renata,

    Yes I did run scribble.nu and I do have backups of at least some of the data.

    One of my new year resolutions is to get the backup I have extracted out, in some form or fashion.

    I’m not honestly sure if it will work; the CDs it is burned on are old and possibly ruined.

    But I will make an effort; check back here in the new year, and I may have some news for you.

    Hello,
    I will definitely come back and check =) Good luck with your backups and thank you so much for your attention!

    Hi there, I found this post through google, and I was wondering if you got anything figured out with the scribble.nu backups. I have been kicking myself for… what, five years now? For not backing it up myself… my account was megasus, and I was just wondering if you have any of my old stuff… I would greatly appreciate if you could search for it, and would even be willing to pay you a bit to get it from you if it still exists. Drop me a line when you have a chance. 🙂 Thanks and take care!

    Hi, was also curious if you ever recovered the scribble.nu archives. Have a similar story as the other folks and would love to have my old entries back. Thanks!
