End of Days (1999) . . .

OMFG! Disaster! What am I going to do?

I just kicked my USB drive by accident. It cracked open and the plug-in part bent. I snapped it back together but I can't get it to register on my computer. A large part of my life is on there. Stuff that I track daily, weekly, monthly. Our finances. Specifically, a five year history of our finances. Spreadsheets detailing when to make payments, how much, when to expect bills. My resume. Writing samples. My SF-10 (state employment application/history). Passwords to every on-line account I have. Argh!

I've got to stop thinking about everything I just lost. And stupid me, just last week, thought to myself that I should really backup the drive onto another one or onto a computer in case something were to happen to it. But I never did it.

Panic Room (2002) . . .

So, if you know me half at all, you can imagine the sense of panic I felt this morning (or any morning) when a coworker walks in and asks, "so, did you see your name in the paper this morning?". Well, no, I didn't because I haven't gotten around to reading the news yet today. So, she pointed to the article.

Link: Combing through the Budget on a Horse with No Name

I hate being in the paper. At least this time there was no accompanying photograph.
