Okay, so I shouldn't do this from work, but I just wanted to paste in a P.S. to the previous entry. But the Musings page insisted on calling me "Journals" instead of "Mavarin", no matter how or how many times I signed in as myself; and no editing buttons appeared. I finally found a workaround on the People Connection Blogs page, but sheesh! Doesn't AOL want me to resume posting here?
Here's what I wanted to paste in below, aside from fixing all my typos and so on. What can I say? I was tired and didn't proofread properly.

P.S. You would think that would be the end of the struggle, but the Blogger server that hosts the Outpost was having problems last night and this morning. When I hit the "Publish Post" button, I repeatedly got a white screen that nevertheless said "Done" at the bottom (as in, "Done loading the page"). No confirming email, no entry when I refreshed the blog. Arrow back: the entry was still in the Create Post window, anyway. What a relief! I did a Save as Draft in case that helped, and the page showed a draft of the entry and also the actual entry. But the entry still wasn't there.
Finally, at Carly's suggestion, I opened the edit window in a different browser, and posted from that. There was at least a minute of the looping notice that it was 0% published. Then, oh joy! 40%! Then 100%, and I heart the new email alert sound. Success! But this morning, Betty reported that the photos, which are hosted on that same Blogger server, weren't showing up on my crossposting to Musings from Mâvarin. Darn server! Try again, Betty! They should be showing up now.- KFB
Saving this entry finally gave my editing buttons! Yay! So I got to fix the entry at last.

Karen,
You don't think the gnome was responsible for any of those blogging problems do you? :) It was good to have a visit and a comment from you....but I know those blogging/journaling problems were causing much havoc! Hopefully its all resolved now.
