What Had Happened Was…Or the One Where I Accidentally Hit Delete Instead of Publish
January 15th, 2010
Oh for crying out loud. Not five minutes ago, there was a really good post right here, in this very space. It was all about my love affair with Flikr. I have been going through the 20,000 some-odd pictures on the computer and sorting them into sets so I can upload them to my account. My obsession with Flikr forced me to upgrade to a pro account the other day so now I can really rock the interwebs with the awesomeness of my photography. Awesomess that you don't get to see now because I was a little too focused on Ace of Cakes and accidentally hit the wrong button. I can tell you how awesome it was because, as you can plainly see, their isn't anything here so you can't disagree with me. You just have to take my word for it.
Oh shut it. Duff was trying to shove a straw into a giant juice box made of cake. A juice box made of cake people! Imagine the deliciousness of that cake. The problem was that the top of the cake was a layer of styrofoam and shoving a giant straw in without inadvertently shoving it through the cake made for riveting programming.
Whatever. My favorite photos have scampered out of this space and back to my Flikr page. I'm sure their bitching to all their friends about how I ruined their 15 minutes of fame. Suck it up photos, I'll add you back in soon, but not today. I'll have to add "update eblog with photos" to my Kanban board.
Here's a really lousy picture of the kanban board, taken with my iPhone. Maybe I should turn on the lights next time.
Since I took this picture three days ago, I have added another half dozen sticky notes to the left hand "todo" column, shifted a couple to the middle, but still have yet to move any to the DUNZO column. Maybe this weekend! I think I'll add a note to do a blog with some of my favorite photos of the past few years. We'll see if I get around to it!












Okay, I officially need a DUNZO board, that's so much more cool than checking off boxes in a list.
Also, if you're using Firefox, might I suggest adding LazarusForm? I've saved many a mislaid blog post and comment with it.

OH how awful! I use Windows Live Writer for posts — it saves them for me and I love the way I can preview how it looks before publishing OR save them for later.
I sound like an ad.

I have done this a few times. Usually when I spend hours working on a post and get so excited it is complete, I hit the wrong effing button. GRRRRR!
