recovery

I have been granted my old blog back, so now I have to decide what to do about this one!

Locked out!

This is a temporary solution - -maybe? - to the problem of not being able to get into my old blog any more.
One day I tried to access it from my Bookmarks list and I was required to login in order to post. Well, it had been 2 years since I had needed to remember any of that information and I was completely unable to recall my user name, password or the primary email, let alone the secondary email, which I was asked to provide when I sought help from the Blogger Support Team.
We seem to have exhausted all possibilities now - well, I am exhausted, anyway, and all for naught. It sits, stranded and lonely, on its pinkness. Some of the last posts seem to have vanished, or maybe that is my imagination; posts I wrote in my head while I was under exam stress and could not get to post.
So now I appear to be a virgin blogger, while really I have been posting (on the quiet) since 2005.
A sneaking suspicion persists that is a stratagem of Google, to gain more information about users and access to spy on blog material. I find it disquieting that they are photographing everyone in entire cities in America, that you cannot comment without setting up a Google account and running the gauntlet of intrusive questions - and the passwords, Good God!
Is it just me? - I cannot remember the things, together with the usernames...
