Computers.

Oh how they are useful and oh how they screw you over.  So, last Thursday in mist of writing on of the 7 essays and the ONE I need to not loose information on.  My laptop crashed.  Normally wouldn’t have been a big deal.  But I haven’t USED my desk top that much since getting a laptop computer. 

I liked the laptop better because it had nicer programs: Windows live Writer being one.  This is a useful program for people like me that really aren’t into writing html or logging onto our account every time I want to post something.  Instead I use this and it dose all the hard work for me.  Plus I can water my photos and have people steal them and take the credit.
Also I can take the laptop with me school on the air plane, when I travel to IL, IA, AR, or anywhere I have been in the last 2 years. 

What really kills me though is that I had 3 years worth of photos that I have now lost.  Most of Mtn Bird.
really sucks.  There have been some nice people have that uploaded the pictures they had of her so I can copy them off.  Right now I have someone trying to recover the information off and am praying that it works. 

So here is the lesson: IF you have a laptop YOU NEED to back up your files one a week, at least.
also if you are using an external.  Need to be really carful with it cause the more its move the quicker it will go bad.  I just got a terabyte external from Best Buy for 95+tax.  When I get it back with the old laptop's hd I will be setting it up on my computer desk and leaving it there. 

Anyway I am happy to have gotten this program back cause I would not be blogging otherwise. 

I will be getting some photos up when I can get my camera to work again.  Still having problems with that.

Also this has Spell check.  Very important, if you are me.
