After the catastrophe a while back when I lost my entire blog due to cutting and pasting in an entry from a Word document, I’ve been very careful about writing my entries directly into my blog.  (I did briefly follow my brother’s advice to type entries into Notepad and cut and paste from there, but found that annoying and time-consuming.)  Today was the first time I’ve had an issue with directly typing into WordPress:  I just lost an entire entry when I clicked on “save and continue editing.”  Poof – gone.  Poof – I was logged off.  Poof – my blood pressure went up.

The really frustrating thing?  I had spent quite a while on this entry and had actually worked on word choice and taken far more pride in my writing than I usually do.  It wasn’t my standard quickie blog post – it was well-written.  And now it’s gone.  Oh the frustration.  Maybe I can recreate it after I eat breakfast.  Maybe.  Grrrrrr.

(for the record, I don’t think this lost post was due to WordPress, but rather our inconsistent wireless signal)
