computer meltdown

[electricalgwen]

On Tuesday, I left my laptop plugged in and working fine, when I went to get Elder Son from school. We dropped by the library, came home, I fed the baby, made supper... and discovered my hard drive had gone off the rails. Terminal, irretrievable meltdown. It's just out of warranty, and although I do back-up fairly regularly, I hadn't done so since before we went away for the summer - having been uploading all the holiday photos, updating my CV, and writing. Argh.

Posting from the local library at the moment, but I can't read or post fic from here. Not sure when I'll be back online, but please know I'm not ignoring you. :)

Computer problems are the worst! Hope it all works out--and soon!

Best of luck recovering everything! Maybe you could sacrifice an old floppy disc to the computer gods? [Okay - I've been watching too much early Buffy.]

God, that sucks. I will be thinking technologically lucky thoughts for you.
