[Previous entry: "What a Relief!"] [Next entry: "Great Read, Bad Girl, Lousy Diction"] 03/02/2006: "The Great and the Not-So-Great"
Yesterday was such a totally awesome day!! I met my cousin for lunch. I'm terrible with time lines and I'm not sure if it had been two years or three years since we last saw one another, but it had been too long. She's really lovely, both inside and out, and it was a pleasure spending time with her. Then The Girl and I met my friend and her two daughters for dinner last night. We hadn't seen them in...yikes...a couple of months...but it was fun and that's the great thing about old friends -- you can sit down with them and it's as if you just saw them yesterday.

We should all own two computers. One that is automatically programmed to back up the other... for instances just like this. on Friday, March 3rd, Jen said
Woohoo! The computer isn't dead. It had crashed but it's recovered and my baby's back home with it's mommy. |

Thank goodness I'd emailed a backup of my current wip to my dh and at least have those files at my disposal and can work off of Girl's computer until I get mine fixed or a new one. My dh is pretty sure it's dead and I'm trying not to freak out over the thought of my hard drive not being recovered. Over three years worth of pictures on it. Books. My organizer with all of my addresses and phone numbers. Deep breath. Stay calm. Learn a lesson and back that stuff up. 
So, I'm about to log off of my borrowed computer and drive my car in. They'll give me a loaner but it's 45 minutes to the dealer. And then another 45 minutes back home. 
An hour and a half shot. Then I've got to get myself set up on my borrowed computer. Girl won't be happy but I've got to move her desk. It's bad feng shui where it is now. Fine for her playing games on it but not good for my writing.
