technical difficulties

For some reason Blogger has decided to be slower than...well, just plain slow lately. Dunno what its deal is, but every now and then the site will go through a day or two of excruciating slothness. And yesterday and today are two of those days. So forget trying to post much of anything. Between Firefox's forever-infamous (to me) choke job and now Blogger's laziness, it's been a BAD week for blogging troubles.
