so this seems weird.
First weird thing: I'm still awake. Not sure why. It may have to do with CSI: NY, as I am finally finishing watching the fifth season, which fishtails wildly between Danny/Lindsay OTP OMG!!! and "Oh my God Danny could totally go have sex with Flack right now. Or Adam. Or Flack AND Adam!"
Ahem.
Second weird thing: Ever since sometime this weekend, while I was at the VividCon hotel, I have been logged out of LiveJournal every time I close and open Firefox, despite faithfully checking the "Remember Me" box every time I log back in. While I was at the hotel I assumed it was something to do with their network, but as the problem persists now that I'm home, I see something else is going on. I've checked all my cookie settings, etc., but nothing seems to have changed this weekend (though I did get some Windows update on Friday, which could possibly be related).
What I also discovered is http://www.livejournal.com/manage/logins.bml which lists any/all sessions where you are currently logged in to LJ. And what I discovered there is that I was showing about eight currently logged in sessions - listing IPs and login times which appear to correspond to the hotel and every time I opened and closed my browser at home tonight--which means as far as LJ is concerned, I'm starting up new sessions every time I open my browser, without the old sessions being logged out when I close. (I don't think it's a caching issue, because when I reopen the browser it initially appears to be logged in--then I refresh the page and, tada! logged out.)
So ... is this a Firefox issue, somehow? I am staying logged in to Dreamwidth (also in Firefox) and the tab of Firefox that is operating as an IE emulator is staying logged in to LJ. So it's not an overall system issue, and it's not just LiveJournal or just Firefox. Anybody have any ideas what could be going on here, or how I could fix it?
Ahem.
