a nice, easy day

Didn't get as much done as I had planed, due to an unexpected 2.5 hour nap after lunch (and thus didn't manage to get out the door on time to go to folk music), but I made some progress on my great colour-coding of sheet music to make it easier to learn to play the songs on the dulcimer project.

I had much fun at folk dance class tonight. A couple of my friends who normal play folk music and don't dance have decided to start dancing with us, and I am delighted that they did. Then I came home and checked registrations for Norrskensfesten, and we had two new sign up since yesterday--one is a friend from the Helsinki area of Finland, who is pretty much always playing music at events, so he will be a delightful addition to the event.

Does anyone know where to find "saved drafts" on Dreamwidth? When I pushed the "post" button a bit ago the page asked me "would you like to restore from a saved draft?" and gave me the title of yesterday's post (plenty of newcomers), and I was confused, as I remember actually posting that. I went to another tab, checked, and the post doesn't show, so I returned to the first tab, intending to click "yes" to the question, but it had vanished, and I can't find any buttons anywhere to find the draft...

I'm not sure that DW saves drafts indefinitely (the way that your e-mail program might). My perception of how it works (based entirely on random observation) is that DW auto-saves draft(s) of an in-process post as you're composing it. If you exit the page without posting, it will keep the last auto-saved draft and offer it up to you the next time you click "post". But if you don't say "yes, restore from draft" I've never had it offer me the same draft again. It may dump it at that point. It may be that visiting DW in another tab counted as "not saying yes, restore".
