Wednesday, April 02, 2008Bereft Of Bits and BytesIn short, my computer has died. As in...died. It was acting funky for several days. Slow, in a weird sort of way. And then it froze. Right in the middle of opening an email. Froze. Enter Techno-geek Husband. He started my baby up in Safe Mode and backed up all the Very Important Things. Like my email folders. And digital photos. And, oh yeah. My novels. Except now I can't access any of it. Because it's -- well, saved somewhere. On a hard drive. And the computer upon which I'm currently tappity-tapping away isn't in any way attached, connected to, or otherwise operably communicating with said hard drive. So. I am a writer without her work. A rabid family photographer without her photos. A writer without her work. An email-addicted social hermit without her email. Have I mentioned that I am a writer without her work? I know my Dear Hubby will grant me access to my files at some point. He is truly irreplaceable at times like this. (Oh, let's be fair. He is always truly irreplaceable.) But in the meantime, I am dead in the water. Alas! Dead. Commiserate with me, will you? Or start up a benevolent Jill Needs A Macbook Pro fund. Or at the very least, send organic chocolate truffles and a few hugs and kisses. Snif. |
