A Slight Administrative Question

Ok, I know I promised in the statement of purpose to never talk about anything but webcomics in this blog and here I am not even in double-digit posts and already breaking the rule, but seriously, this is bugging the crap out of me. Can anyone tell me an easy way to make Blogger keep the spaces between your paragraphs when you make a post? Because I always have everything all nice and spaced out in the text entry screen and then when I post it it all gets crushed together, and I have to go back into the html code and manually add spaces, which is hella annoying. So if anybody's got a trick they'd like to share with me, I'd be much obliged. Thanks.
