I am going to go completely insane waiting to get my desktop computer back. I am trying to get as much done on the computer as I can every day, but I really hate using my laptop as a desktop. With my desktop I can leave the thing on from the time I get up to the time I go to bed without worrying too much about what it will do to it to leave it on for so long.
I never really thought much about needing to have everything backed up - until I lost everything on the computer. Now I keep thinking about how I should have had everything backed up in triplicate. Particularly my writing.
I'm now looking into the options for backing up information, from online archive sites to storing information on CDs, to tape drives and other kinds of system backup options. Trust me, losing your computer and not having a backup of a novel you have worked on for years sucks. Not to mention all of the programs and fonts I lost as a result of the crash.
I'm just hoping that the movies I had bought from iTunes are not lost as well. That would effectively cure me of ever buying more from them.

NOTICE: I love trying to make this a good travel journal and while I know I fall short of my dream, I also spend a LOT of time pondering and rereading comments to see if I should post or delete as robot SPAM. So... a few rules on the comments.
I want anyone, not only Blogger members or Open ID members to be able to comment, however... Please sign your comment, if you do not it will not be published. Anonymous comments help no one and are unreliable.
Also, if you have a strong enough opinion to post a comment, please take time and make it informative - if you had a good time somewhere detail what you mean, don't just say "This place was great!!! Loved the buffet!", and if you had a lousy time please detail it, don't just say "This place sucked and the pool smelled! Ruined my vacation!" I want to feel as if you really were there when I read your comments.
If you have a website or blog where you detailed your experience it is even better, include a link to your website or blog - just make sure it is not to a SPAM site made to endorse/defame a location, because I will delete any that do not strike me as being legitimate personal sites.
Thank you for your help in making it easier for me to know what is robotic SPAM and what are real personal reviews.
