State of the Computer Address

Still no joy on the Internet at home. I did buy a new hard drive last night, and Doctor [livejournal.com profile] bit_boy is scheduled to perform a hard drive transplant on Sunday. Meanwhile, I checked my files and it looks like I got everything. I think I'm only going to lose the fiddly little stuff (I didn't lose any of my songs, but I'm going to lose all my playlists and play counts when I reinstall iTunes; I didn't lose any of my eBooks, but I'm going to lose my reading lists and plot summaries when I reinstall Mobipocket; I didn't lose any of my videogames, but I'm going to lose all my high scores when I reinstall them; and so on and so on). I shouldn't complain. This could've been so much worse.

Meanwhile, all my episode reaction posts are going to be one day late until my PC is up and running again because I have to go to the library to post anything.

I need a computer problem icon of some kind.

*hugs* I know how awful computer crashes are.

ooh, icon of BSD (Blue Screen of Death—yep, the techs have given it an acronym)

Seriously, I can't figure out what the heck I did with myself before the Internet. I feel like I'm cut off from the world. Hopefully, I'll at least be back online regularly on Monday. It's going to be a long time before I get caught up on my flist again though.
