Deleted entries; technical difficulties; and wondering if I’m retarded

For those of you that have been here before, you might be wondering what looks different about the site from last time you looked. You might see that it looks very uncluttered right now, as in it’s not bogged down with a whole of lot of hard written entries over the last few months. In fact for a blog that’s been going two bloody years, it has only one entry at all! Strange you might say… odd even!

Well it’s not so strange when you consider the fact that with one foolish click of a button I just deleted my entire blog database thereby nuking all my posts back to nonexistence. Stupid you might say, fucking retarded even! No argument there. I’m still trying to come terms with what I just did. A coke can has more brains than that!

But wait you say, what about the backups? You got backups… right?!

Well I thought about backups the way you probably think about a sex disease; accidents always happen to someone else, but it’s not going to happen to me! As with (almost) everything else in our lives, you just have to learn the hard way if you’re going to learn anything at all.

So here I am again, once more starting out fresh and anew. The whole blogosphere is a field of dreams full of hope and expectation for me. And I get to start all over again, making my mark on it. Well at least now my more trashy entries will be spared from public viewing and potential ridicule. Which is a shame because I like the attention really.

Right then… one more time for the gipper! (As they say)!

Padwanna!

(PS: I still have my old posts from 2005 to the end of 2006 on blogger, but I haven’t yet worked out how to get them imported here. Something about new blogger being a screaming bitch not wanting to hand over my entries to some other software. Or there not being an updated import utility yet. Yeah well, the details not important but I can’t do it right now. Soon… I hope, because I can’t stand the wide open spaces here now).

Hi Ann, thanks for the sympathy. Now I don’t suppose you can wave a magic wand and bring my posts back, can you?

No?! Well I thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask! ;)
