Whacked out - missing categories - files disappearing!?

I just tried to move 184 pictures from one gallery to another (moved them to a temp folder, so I could move back just the ones I wanted) And the page timed out while doing the "move".
At first it appeared to have moved four files - none were in my orignal directory - thus 180 pictures were missing. Then 6 more showed up in the original folder - I moved those as well. Then 12 more showed up in the original folder, but my temp folder no longer was available from the drop down menu to move my pictures too...
Now I have a random number of photos in the original gallery, while the temp gallery doesn't even exist to transfer files too from the "move" menu dropdown list...
The reason I didn't hand pick the ones I wanted to move was exactly this reason - I don't get along with moving files and smugmug I guess. It always has issues for me... and it's always when I try to make a quick change for a client when this stuff happens too... :huh
Is this another wait it out for the servers to sync up? This sure is a long time for something simple...

Was trying to go from here:
http://www.tanksdigitaleffects.com/gallery/3405548#190543993
To here:

But it DID work now... incase you missed my second message directly after hitting submit
I just got the 25 or so files moved back to the original gallery and all seems well... but I'm posting now to see if it helps you figure out the original problem.
