Arrgh!

I spent over two hours writing up a Yuletide recs post, carefully compiling links and writing out summaries and commentaries, then hit the wrong button and accidentally navigated away from the page. But I figured, hey, no problem--I had saved my latest draft, so all I need to do is say "yes" to the "Restore from saved draft?" prompt, right? Wrong! LJ ATE MY FREAKIN' POST!!! It reverted back to the bare bones list of fandoms that I had started last night before going to bed, planning to finish it today! All the links, story titles, commentary--all gone! And I was nearly done, too!

I HATE YOU, LJ!!!

*weeps*

Okay, just needed to vent and get that off my chest. Guess I'll go and try to re-create the post, although I don't know if I can remember or have the energy to re-write all the commentary. *sighs*

god I HATE that. sometimes when I go to post again, a draft reappears. not always.

when I do a looong reccs peice, I try to remember to do it in Word or something... maybe googledocs?

Thanks for the suggestion! I didn't have time to finish the second draft, so I did save it in googledocs.
