I took the OTA update the morning it was pushed to my phone because I was too excited that it was JB, and forgot to backup my su. A bunch of threads here tell you how to regain root but only if you have voodoo's backup or something else. Can't find anything on not having a backup at all. My superuser app still exists, but updating the binaries just yields to a failure of gaining root access.

With no binary backup, you cannot restore root.  There is a root bounty going with a potential exploit coming soon.
