Hello September: What's Up, Instagram?

And here we have the beeeautiful month of September entering the room, already wearing some gorgeous fall colored accessories.

​The brutal daytime heat and some surprise cool snaps at night have caused speckles of gold and brown to appear among the (somewhat crispy) greenery in our back yard. 


Most of that gorgeous fall color can be found in our garden, sadly. 

Another thing that is sad? My Instagram account. ​

I'm not sure what happened, but yesterday evening I tried to like a couple of posts and was given a message that I couldn't do so because I had a "bad link" in my profile. 

The only link on there was to my store, so I tried to change it. I was told I couldn't change the bad link...because I have a bad link in my profile. Its been there for awhile, so I'm not sure why it became a problem. I've tried to fix it, but apparently I've been spam blocked. 

I know I totally overreact to things like that. I'm always so careful not to spam that usually I just hang around quietly and don't interact with anyone on social sites. Since you are supposed to interact though...to like, build up a social presence, I do TRY to comment on posts, but probably only one or two comments per week, since I always check my account on the fly. 

 The introvert perfectionist in me wants to make everything all better and somewhat fix whatever horrible crime I committed.

 The evil overlord side of me says to just hiss in that general direction and move on to something more worthwhile. 

But darn it. I like Instagram. I just think it is insanely weird that they won't let you take out a link if they think a link is a problem. 
Sharesies: Have you had any experience getting scolded by Instagram? Is it fixable, or is this like having a big scarlet letter emblazoned on your online presence forever? (Just kidding--practicing some melodrama there.)
