The Blogger's Lament

It's nice to see the referral logs, so you know when people are talking about your stuff.
Until, that is, you have a referrer log back to a nice, juicy livejournal entry that might have something to say about your writing... and you discover it's a locked entry.
You go a little mad. What could they be saying? What would your post have done that drove them to write about you but lock the post away where no one would ever see it but those they trusted not to rat them out? This isn't even an LJ that's entirely posted protected normally -- they had to make a decision to lock this entry.
It's like having a phantom itch on the side of your face that's been numbed by Novocain. You scratch and scratch and scratch, but all you succeed in doing is leaving welts you can't feel on the side of your face with no sense of relief in sight.
