I wrote this massive 3 paragraph vent, got myself all worked up and crying and when I hit send I got an error. When I hit the back button to retry, I lost it all. This internet we have here at this office SUCKS.

Edit: SURE this goes through on the first try no problem!

Oh, Michelle, this has happened to me SO many times just when I think I am sending the post to end all posts here, I can't tell you!!! If it is indeed long and detailed, it is BEYOND annoying and enough to make me want to chuck my laptop across the room and even have a little tantrum, I can tell you! You would all think me a literary GENIUS if only those darn things had sent...... ?!?(hee hee)

Wouldn't it be good if there was a 'save to drafts' type option before sending, like with e-mail, then if it didn't go first time we would still have the writing saved to try again?! Maybe there is and I just haven't realised???

Itīs happening to me too, more often than I care to think about. When Iīve written something a bit longer, I often highlight it all, and then right click on the mouse, and copy the text. If itīs all lost, Iīll just have to paste it, and there it is again! Unfortunately, I donīt remember to do this all teh time, so sometimes I have to re-write...

Aha! Malin, you've cracked it! There is a little 'copy' and then 'paste' icon above this as I write (two pages, and a page and a clipboard - next to the scissors) - that's what to do. Thanks for that very useful pointer!

I just hate when I write this whole thing and I lose it.... you put so much energy, emotion and effort into it, the concept of rewriting it is like, "Ugh... oh forget it."

I don't think that's ever happened to me. Knock on wood.
