What's with the change to google account?

First of all, no, my blog is not dead. It's sputtering and gasping for it's breath though, hanging on, hanging in. Bear with me; this thing called love has swiped time away without my notice. I will strive to see inspiration when it presents itself.

Now, in my absence it seems that Google has owned Blogger in some internets battle, making Blogger it's bitch. Is this something I need to upgrade or what? I'm getting so sick of the constant feeling that I as soon as I update something, I must turn around and do it again. I feel as though this barrage from an invisible force wants something from me, like it's sucking my soul. As if we've all become our own web page that has to be refreshed in order to work. What the fuck am I talking about? Do I need this goddamn update?
