I knew I shouldn't have caught up on my flist. Every time I do, something happens to put me behind again. This time it was a catastrophic failure of the hard drive on my PC last night, which is why there was no Monday Meme.

bit_boy acting as phone tech support, I got to a point where I could save the few recent files I hadn't backed up yet. Nothing crucial has been lost. I'm still working on trying to connect to the Internet, but that may be a no go. Meanwhile, I've dragged my laptop to the library to use the free Wi-Fi.
In the near future, I get to replace my hard drive and upgrade to high-speed wireless Internet so if this happens again, I can still use my laptop at home (my PC is on dial-up and my laptop doesn't have a dial-up modem). I'm not sure how long it will be until I have consistent and reliable Internet access, but I'll be on as much as I can for as long as my laptop battery lasts.
