I tried to get on this blog today only to discover that, in migrating my site to a new server, my hosting company had entirely lost the contents of my blog. Everything, gone.

I was able to locate a working backup from March, and I’ve restored the entries since then by copying them out of Google’s cache. I couldn’t find the patience to sign in and out repeatedly to rescue the comments of the last six months, though, so I’m afraid I’ll just have to live without those.

If anything’s wonky or missing, well, now you know why. There’s a lot of stuff to update about, but, having spent most of my evening copying and pasting old entries, I’m too tired to compose new stuff.
