More Computer Fun!
Oh Listolier the laptop, when will you stop torturing me?
But at least he waited till the day after NaNo to explode, the poor dear. I talked to the nice I.T. guy, and instead of saying "Have you tried turning it off and back on again?" (A: Yes.) he explained that sometimes hard drives just go bad. Fortunately, The Twin Sunsets was already backed up. UNfortunately, the part of the hard drive that went bad was my desktop. Whiiiich included all my I.T. Crowd (RICHMOND), Merlin, Mighty Boosh, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2006 and 2007, and my half-finished Mighty Boosh fanvid to "Guy Love" from Scrubs... *sigh*
Whatevs.
BUT. I really really want to write more random Richmulian-y stuff. Oneshots. And revision on The Twin Sunsets. AND I CAN'T. Mehhhh.
ETA: Now that I'm on the loaner computer I must verify that I only lost Einstein and Eddington (*sniffle*), the Merlin video diaries (*sigh*), a few tracks from the Mighty Boosh Radio Series (they're on my iPod anyway), the Jonathan Ross interview with Tennant and Catherine Tate (I already had it on megaupload), and a particular movie I had downloaded about sparkly creatures of the night only to let my friends watch it without supporting it financially. So, I'm in the process of replacing these things. It's gonna be okay. AND I get a free new hard drive out of the deal! Whooooo.
