Alas, my desktop developed a bad sector in Windows and went into and endless cycle of reboots, so I'm currently running Ubuntu from a cd. I can't really afford to drop the money on Windows 7 right now (random school fee, taxes that I swear I paid, etc), so I have no idea how long I'll be running it like this.
To make matters worse, my laptop has developed full-on hard drive failure (first one in >10 years, go me!) and can't even start the diagnostic. Lenovo says that I'll get my new drive in 2 days, but I still need to yank critical data off of it.
In other news, Penguin Drum is still WTF, Nikita is still Bechdel-tastic, and Downton Abbey has to wait until Christmas.
