Computer woes
So now my laptop has stopped working. According to the tech guys at my school, the hard drive is shot. Probably randomly. Great, just great. Not only do I have a ton to do this week, I don't have all my vids, vidding stuff, music and personal computer for internet usage. Already I can't even get Lum's vid to play :( I'm hoping I can recover the information because I stupidly don't have it backed up. The place where I bought it from is in NY so it'll probably take forever me to get it back. So I guess I'll be using the school library a lot. *sigh* This just sucks.
Some new Michael/Jan fic cheered me up and probably watching The Office will do the same but I can tell it'll be a long two weeks before the glorious month of April begins.

Also, not having a computer sucks (just got over that problem recently myself :S).
As for not having vids, I completely understand. I've changed a bit recently, but for me, vidding *was* my fandom. Sure I'd mostly download vids from certain fandoms, but really I didn't limit myself to known fandoms. You could take away fics, and icons and graphics, and hell, in someways even the shows, and I'd be ok, so long as I had my vids.
About a year and a half ago I moved to China, and I didn't have a computer with me, but I still brought some vids with me on CD. And *that* was hard, since of my like 15GBs of vids (at the time) I could only take like 3GBs :(
*life hard* we need ivds :P

Actually when I think of the things I may have lost, those are the worse, but I also save my favourite fics, so I'll have lost a good deal of those. And some podfics, 1 of which I was making myself (oh god, like 100 hours down the drain!). I have most of my music on an external hard drive. Same with most of my source material. I'll have lost a few eps and movies, but nothing too huge.
Programs. That's another biggie. just getting Firefox set up on this computer is annoying. I had a lot of add ons installed (thank god a bookmark synchronizer was amoung them).
Also, things like tracking down the programs and their keygens can be a pain (I always seem to get virus' when looking for keygens).
It won't be the end of the world if I can't get my info back, I'll just be incredibly pissed.
Oh computers, how you suck, but make life so we can't live without you!
