  mfnaughton, I am having the same issue.. I have tried reloading the page and pasting in another post but to no avail. I only have on account on WordPress and only one page at that. Not sure what is causing this..

  trying another browser

  If those do not work for you then we need to know
  (1) how you are connecting to the internet and to WordPress.com. The way you connect to the internet (mobile, satellite, DSL, dial-up) and to your blog, and how many proxy server jumps etc. it takes to connect can cause problems. There maybe be problems with your ISP and/or with the proxy servers. Also note that the main dashboard isn’t designed to work with touch devices through the tablet and smartphone browsers.

  (2) exactly which browser and version of it are you using. If you don’t know click here to find out > http://whatsmyuseragent.com/
