Coffee House Blues II
So there I was at Swork drinking my coffee and typing out a hilarious blog post. One of the funniest ones that I have written, at least to me, and normally I don't think my stuff is too funny, but this one was the bees knees.
I had written out what must have been the equivalent to a page and a half of a story, kind of long for a blog post but I was on a roll. It had drama, comedy, action - okay maybe not too much action but it could have. Now you may be wondering why I am talking about this blog post in the past tense. You may even say to yourself, " But Teaspoon, you haven't posted anything since the 10th of December. We haven't read anything new yet" But ahah I say.
There I was, bringing forth this intricate web of intrige and drama. We had the Hero and the Villian. It was coming forth to be the story of the century something that you would be telling your grandchildren about. "yes, little billy I got to read the first addition of the story." " I was one of the first 10 people to ever read those amazing words." And then...
My 30 minutes of computer time ended. No warning no chance to save my work... Gone, just gone. So the world might never get a chance to read my story. Trying to recreate the masterpiece that it was would just be too painful, emotionally and physically.
Wreaked yours,
Teaspoon

Ah, I know so well from whence you speak.
I've developed a habit long ago to prevent this bullshit.
I write my post in MS Word -- which is risky enough! -- and then I cut-n-paste into Blogger.
It's an anti-bufu measure. Works like a charm!

MJ - exactly it blows the perverbial chunks.
LBB - unfortunately even doing so would not have saved my masterpiece, as the time runneth out all works were lost.

Hey MJ,
Actually Swork, as far as I can work out is a small chain in SoCal. I only know of 2 in and around LA, but they insist on telling me that there or more. whether that is true or not is for some other coffee-fiend then myself. My coffee craze is ending in the next couple of weeks until next year Christmas time.
