sad news & technobabble
Hey everyone.
I promise there has been a reason for the radio silence on my part for the last month or so. I've been having serious problems with my gaming computer (oh, will the humanity ever end) and it ended up with a clean install of a new operating system. Unfortunately, this means that I lost everything. I lost the entirety of the hood, all of Mars Valley (my quasi-BACC), my main hoods, and my downloads. I wasn't able to save anything. Understandably, I'm devastated, but determined to make the most of it; I definitely plan to reinstall my games and keep playing, and rebuild my downloads folder!
It may take me a while, but I'm still here and I'll definitely be around. If you don't follow me already, I recommend following me on tumblr for the time being, so you can see what I'm reblogging & downloading. Also, please give me a friend at dreamwidth. I'll still be crossposting everything here and checking LJ regularly, so no need to move - I just also use DW regularly for RP, so I'm very familiar with it!
I adore you all and I hope everyone is well.

(For those who are techy, what was wrong with my computer was I corrupted - somehow - my master boot record (mbr) and was unable to fix it because I didn't have my windows XP install disc. I attempted to use several other OS install discs and methods to repair or renew my MBR but it was impossible; the computer wouldn't even boot. This arose probably from having 2 partitions, one linux and one windows and then attempting to delete one ... oops!)
