Update
First, the good news:
It is starting to look like I've got backups of photos up until just before my big trip to France/Scotland/England last year. I'm pretty sure I sent a copy of my trip photos home to NZ, so I may be able to get those as well. Which means that I'm probably just missing any photos from the last 15 months. Once I get everything sorted there will be a major backup session.
I was also able to recover Bad Jelly the Witch. This is a very important thing. If you don't know Bad Jelly, then you really don't know me.
Liverpool won today and by doing so won their Champions League group. I enjoyed that.
Second, the middling news:
The backup software on my main laptop expired. This caused me some consternation given recent events, but this was very quickly dealt to by upgrading to the latest version. Backups currently running.
Third, the annoying news:
My plan to take three days off this week has been completely scarpered by work. Of course, this is important work, which, if it all comes off well, should see a good long-term deal. But still, I had plans, goddamnit! Still, I think as a result, I shall just have to take two full weeks off starting Friday next week.
Fourth, the bad news:
Hector, a regular at the Local, is being deported. I won't go into details, but it sucks. I have a mixed opinion of the situation, given my own position, but I still liked him and he is a really nice guy.
Also, because of the news reported in the third section, I am not planning any post-cow drinking binge tomorrow night. I gotta get up on Thursday morning and work now.
