After I quoted that, I put "This will be the next one I try." after the embedded video. However, that didn't show up in the post. This isn't the first time text has disappeared like that. If I hit edit, I see it just fine, though. Also, I kept trying to embed two youtube videos into one post and it wouldn't do that either. What gives?

Don't use the media tags...the videos will self embed.

how do you embed on the blogs? when i try to preview the video, it just shows as a link. then i tried using the media tags and almost the same thing happens.

Don't you have to actually post for the media tags to parse?
