I have learned a very valuable lesson today.

I had decided that I would add a new post to my blog each week, on Mondays. Well, Monday is also one of the days that my DH (and at the moment that does NOT stand for "dear" husband) plays Xbox online with his friends. 

At approximately 5:30pm, I started writing my blog post. It was a post about attending conventions, listing the pros and cons, as well as a list of the ten things I gained from my attendance of ConText 2014, and Imaganarium 2015. 

​I was proud of the post. I felt it was well written, informative, and maybe even a little humorous and entertaining.

​So, the blog was done. I move the mouse, hit "post," and --

​Nothing.

​My screen went white and I received this message:

​"No network connection. Try again."

Seriously? This has to be joke! I'm being Punked or something, right? There's no way this is happening.

​At that moment, I hear my DH (even less dear of darling now!) laughing. He's apparently having a GREAT time playing his (bleep) dinosaur game. (I hope your Megalodon eats you!)

​I hold my breath for a moment, and hit the back button, hoping that by some miracle, the post is still there.

​Nope. It's gone.

So, instead of a great post about conventions, you get *this*.

​Blame my DH. And Xbox. Or just my DH.

​The lesson I have learned:

​Always, always, always write your posts in Word and then copy and paste them into the blog.

​(I will rewrite the convention post, trying to recreate it as best I can, and repost it next week.)
