How irritating!

[blackberry444]

I just wrote a long post about what a lovely Christmas we're all having and how smug I'm feeling about it, and LJ has lost it.

Bum!

I'm not writing it all again now, buggrit.

damn, I could've sent you back the email you sent me btu it's already gone I'm afraid.
Got it in your CopiesToSelf folder? or was it /very/ different to what you were writing here?
Sometimes if you Back enough, the browser will still have it...

No, it wasn't very different, really. I tried the going back thing but all it offered me by way of a saved entry was a blank page!

Ouch. I've had that happen once or twice too, so I tend to write long posts in Notepad, saving them to a folder which I keep for LJ preparation; I then copy and paste them into LJ.
