You didn't save, you abandoned your fort.

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

yes you can't (normaly) get out withouth saving or leaving it completly ... that confused me too in the begining ... However if you would like to go back to your last save there is a way, alt+ctrl+del, -> windows task manager, Processes, select the dwarf fortress and klikk on the button End Process. in this way nothing since the last save will be saved, (and you don't need to abandon completly ...)

This isn't an insult, but, get Firefox and the spellcheck add-on.

Please.
