First of all, surely you are not still using this infamous blog anymore, right? If you still want to have an online journal, then may I suggest moving your old blog to a site with privacy controls?
Such as: www.livejournal.com
I have my own journal there and really love it. I can write whatever I want and can control who sees it so that anyone with an internet connection can't read my private thoughts.
With LiveJournal you can set the each post to be viewed publicly (everyone can see it), viewed by friends only (only people on your friends list can see the entry), or private (only YOU can view the entry).
You obviously do need to use something else than what you have for your journal since the ex-friend co-worker knows your screenname and site location. It would be wise to use a completely different screenname when finding a new journal location.
Now second of all, the annoying co-workers. I think I would have to say something to the ex-friend co-worker who blabbed to the others about your blog. It was def. not cool, and they should know that you are not going to let them manipulate you and cause this drama for you.
As for the other, loud co-workers.... you already spoke to your boss about the problem. (S)he should make some effort to make them quit because you are an employee and you have the right to a sutable work enviroment. If they continue with this childish behavior, then say something to them! You have a right to! You spoke with your boss, and that didn't stop them.... you shouldn't have to put up with it. Just be firm, but not mean.
In my opinion, I think it is harassment.
