Sorry to hear you're sick - I hope you get better soon.

As for your LJ thing, well I can only say that it isn't because you haven't moved to the new site scheme, because I haven't either and I am not having these problems. When I click on a cut it just opens the post in my flist & doesn't take me off to the person's journal. I don't use LJ to post, I use a client, but having a quick look at post entry shows me something quite different from yours.

Maybe you've just been hit with a glitch that will be/is fine? Of course it might be that they are rolling out a change to anyone who hasn't switched to the new scheme and thus I'll have these issues in due course. But given the outcry about the feed rather than flist I can't see them doing that. But then you never know.

I do hope it was just 'one of those things' and all is okay now for you. *FC* It's a real pain when these things happen and it's not a minor thing for you!

Ah, I do believe it is something to do with your journal. I say that because when I came to post this reply I got a very weird looking 'this is how your comment will look' page - nothing like I'm used to seeing when I post a comment. I have seen it before (years ago) but not that I can recall on your journal and certainly not on a regular basis. How strange. I can only suggest opening a support thing and reporting this glitch.
