Something odd definitely seems to be going on, beyond just the  
mod_rewrite rules here:

When I request that URL, there is a HTTP redirect being send, which  
is where the second 'yaddayadda' is coming from.  After that  
redirect, the second request gets this mod_rewrite rule applied.  If  
you look closely, you'll see that blosxom is actually displaying the  
category 'yaddayadda/yaddayadda', not just 'yaddayadda'.

Is there anything else in your .htaccess files?
