Yesterday I briefly considered jumping out the window after thought I had lost all of my VERY IMPORTANT FILES. But since I live in a one-story house, that seemed pretty silly. ;)
So after seeking comfort in embarrassing amounts of Coca-Cola and peanut M&Ms, I remembered that (1) I had e-mailed a bunch of stuff to myself before the hurricane last year in case I lost my computer and my backup files, and (2) I had an old computer that can't write to any kind of external media worth a darn, but might be able to read at least some of the files on the corrupted CDs so I could try that e-mail thingy again.
Well, to make a long story short, I was finally able to reconstruct about 80% of my data. Woo hoo!
Thanks from the bottom of my Wilson-lovin' heart for the much needed hugs and encouragement. And as a small token of my appreciation, here's a little Wilson picspam for you. Enjoy!
