Sometime between Thursday night and Friday morning, my Wednesday and Thursday posts just disappeared. At first I thought I'd made some mistake while tired and hadn't posted properly, or something, but I confirmed that John saw them too. And then I remembered that I had received comments on them, so I had proof that they had existed! But they are gone from the site, and gone from my archives none-the-less.
I can only conclude that:
a) my little website here decided to go on a bender and lost the last two days after one too many shots of tequila (possible)
b) inspired by all the alternate history reading I've been doing lately as I work my way through the SM Stirling bibliography, the blog figured out how to generate a wormhole and was transported back to Tuesday in the lamest time travel/alternate dimension adventure ever (not all that likely)
c) like me, the blog is ridiculously clumsy and fell down the stairs, hit its head, and developed a short term case of amnesia (the soap opera explanation)
d) there was some sort of server hiccough that I can't explain, don't understand and don't know how to fix (probable)
Whatever the cause of this mysterious outage, I have restored the last two posts, but alas, not the comments on them. I'd like to direct your attention to the "What's it like?" post, because I really am interested in the answer.
And watch out for those wormholes.
I'm guessing Tequila too! On your part maybe, hehehe!
