It happened to me this week, a lot. So, first. Apologies to readers. That is, if anyone is still with me. It sure decimates your traffic. Ugh. And then there’s the fact that no one in your immediate family understands or can muster any empathy since they don’t get what it is you’re doing on the computer all the time.

Meanwhile, fuming and getting in touch with the hosting company several times hasn’t completely resolved it and I have decided to alter my outlook.

It sucks but it isn’t the end of the world. In fact, here’s a great link to Christine Kane’s suggestions for how to handle this dilemma.

Google “when you blog server goes down” and you’ll find several more reactions to this annoying part of technodependence.

My advice after a week of snarling and then fifteen minutes of laughing after finding Christine’s post: take a hike and fuggedaboutit. Life and blogging goes on.
