test

LJ has refused to let me post an entry since Thursday. This is a test.

Edited to add... it let me post this, but it will not let me edit this entry by pasting in the one I wrote on Thursday. WTF? After some testing, there seems to be some sort of limit on how much text can be saved at once, or maybe just how long it can be, or some combination. It was not a particularly brilliant post or anything, but how am I supposed to chronicle Evelyn's first real bath now that her belly button is free from the cord stump if I can't post about it here? LJ is aware of the problem, apparently, but seems to think that fixing it so the "majority" of users are not affected is enough. I disagree, and my wallet, which is paying them for the service of posting, is also in disagreement. Hmph.

I couldn't post on Friday either. Finally I resorted to posting via e-mail, which worked but the formatting was all screwy. Then it wouldn't let me edit until Saturday to make it look like I wanted it to. Stupid. And I couldn't leave comments in some people's journals either. Bah. Please repost the bath story!

Posting by email.. good idea! And now when I tried to go figure out how to post by email, I see that it gives that as a suggestion on getting around the problem. I wondered about your formatting the other day.. I guess that's what happened! I just emailed the post and it looks like it worked. You're so smart. :) (By the way, I wouldn't have paid attention to this note in the instructions if not for this comment, but apparently the formatting issue won't happen if you send the email as plain text.)

I might have to try it again as I'm hitting the same problem. Grrr.
