Well, that was a Chinese firedrill of the highest order.

The domain expires every August. Unfortunately, the notice to renew got sent to an inactive email. And when I tried to login to the domain management panel it refused to recognize me. As it turns out the domain service changed its login procedures, with no notice to me of course, and I was locked out. Nothing to do but wait until customer service answered my ticket. Tremendous pain in the ass.

But…we’re back.
