Momentary panic attack cured by proper spelling

Posted on | June 6, 2008 | 4 Comments

Not one of my more lucid moments this morning. Tried to log onto my blog and kept getting the dreaded

    I keep doing that having just moved the blog–fortunately the host this is on actually has a redirect that works (I am having issues with another host… I believe it harkens back to your posts on having to work with “support”)
