R.I.P. Hard Drive
Yes, folks, my hard drive is dead. This, just after I did a reinstall two weeks ago.
So now I am tethered to The Hubby’s old desktop. No more can I watch TV on the couch and surf the wonderful web. No more can I work from the comfort of my bedroom. I have to sit at a desk and use a desktop. Don’t you feel sorry for me?
No?? Not even a little? Geez, what a tough crowd!
The bright side is, because I just did a re-install a few weeks ago, I know I have a fairly up to date back up of my emails; and since I back up daily at noontime I know I have most of my files available. The computer is still under warranty, so the labor and cost of the new hard drive = $0.00.
The down side – I have to install a bunch of stuff on The Hubby’s computer so I can work this week while I wait for the replacement to happen. Plus, you know, the whole working at the desk thing. Which, I do all the time, but now that it isn’t optional, feels like a jail sentence.
