this is a curse.

Sa', I love you, but if you laugh at that one I'm going to have to kill you.

So, yesterday? right after I (did) finish my Lit. essay, thank lord that's over... my laptop crashed. (... what. It's only the fifth time in two years. Barely.) I've lost pretty much everything that was in it, except the few tidbits I'd saved, like, five months ago... everything else, including about 2,000 pictures and about as many pieces of writing, fanfiction and fiction alike, are gone. It's gone back to virgin-state. It's working, but I've had to re-install it all. 

The worst of it all is, I've also lost something like 20,000-words-worth of my own writing. And everything I've done so far on Homespun. (So, right, it wasn't much, and a good part of it is written out on paper, okay. But it's so frustrating.)

DO YOU HATE ME, GOD. I WOULD'VE LIKED TO GET THE MEMO.


Saaaaa', will you please return to the world of the living and get me some glompage, thx.

Join the ranks of those that can break computers by looking at them wrong

Oh! Oh! I have an idea! Let's have a competition to see who can break their technology the most!

In all honesty, WOW THAT SUCKS. Can I heartily recommend a flash drive or several, and/or an external harddrive on which to back things up? And then do so like twice a day? (There's nothing that stops one from playing with fire quite like getting burned several dozen times.)

Besides, look on the bright side. At least you still have your essay. You do, right?

Where can I sign in?

*zooms stare on computer* *sees it explode* *meeps* SO I'M NOT ALONE. THANK YOU.

Yes, yes it does. I think I'll fall back on the offline archive for a while, if I can stands hours of coding. And possibly Photobucket. And bookmarking everything I'm saving from now on.

Yes! I do. God, if it had deleted it, I wouldn't just be talking about it calmly, I'd be raving mad.
