Yesterday I wanted to make a blog just for my knitting. Stupid me.
Somehow in the activation of this new blog, my old one got over-written (silly me, I thought adding a new blog with a new name would actually make one with a new name). Thus over 3 years of thoughts, memes, quizes, and comments were totally lost.
But wait! Yahoo! has this nice “Snapshot” feature so you can restore files you changed or deleted. Only not that one. You know, the one you really want. The one it wasn’t your fault it got erased (it wasn’t, their stupid software made the the overwriting by naming my new blog “blog” without giving me a choice).
I am sad. I am thinking about not blogging any more. T reminds me that I am still here and I still have things to say, but superficially, my heart hurts over this.
So, while I will probably be back, it might be a few days.

I’m so sorry about this. It must be so hard… Tomorrow will truly be a better day. And you will be able to build your blog back up again.

I’m sad that all your quizzes and thoughts have been erased! It does hurt because there is a lot of thought that goes into a blog. Don’t give up! I need something good to read

I’m so sorry–I know I would be freaking out too.
Did you ask your hosting company (yahoo?) if they do backups automatically? Or have you run any wordpress backups?

[...] I turned 31 on May 16. Not a big deal, just something I did. Last year, I blogged 30 things about me in the 30 days leading to my 30th birthday. It was fun. It was hard. It was lost in the great blog disaster of 2007. There have been several celebrations for this event. [...]

[...] I think I took this quiz before, and I think I got this same answer, but that was before the great blog disaster of 2007. [...]
