Quick FYI: Way around the journal problem
If you're having a 500 error problem with your journal and can't see your friends pages or your own journal like I am go to someone's journal who isn't having the problem (Devin's are working just fine) and use their friend's page to do what you need to do. It's a bit annoying but it's way to do what you want to do and better than having nothing at all :/
