computers suck

My laptop's drive crashed a couple weeks ago. It'd been making noises for a while, and like a complete & utter dumbass, I failed to back up the important stuff that was only on there (like, all my album art from last year's massive mp3 tagging, and all my financial data from the last year, plus tons of bookmarks...). Plugging it back in via USB wouldn't even bring up a /dev entry- just whirred & scratched. Great. I pieced together all my main non-cash stuff in gnucash, so that's mostly OK now (and I've got a cron job to back it up now -_-;), but now going through & trying to sync all my mp3 tags back to goku is a big PITA since I lost half the album art & have to re-find it. At least all my email & pictures are on my other machine... should make sure I have all that backed up somewhere else, too.

Last week I consoled myself by getting a PSP, w/ LocoRoco & Katamari, for "free" (yay for Yodobashi points!). Ordered the R&C one thanks to a nice site that'll actually ship US video games to Japan (fucking region code bullshit...). Of course, Girl won't let me play it unless she's peering over my arm watching, which is a bit of a pain. :P"

Tokyo's getting warm... Gonna need to pull out my short sleeved shirts soon... oh well. Back to stupid tagging... -_-;

r&c, katamari, shopping, games, computers
