You've got to be kidding me

In addition to dealing with lots of technical glitches with my site, I experienced a new level of meltdown.

We recorded the big round-table discussion about LOST without incident (after delicious pancakes). Then our guests went home and we ran a few errands. When I returned the laptop was doing this funky thing it does with my mouse sometimes (it doesn't recognize it) which requires a reboot.

Then things went horribly wrong.

Seven hours and a few phone calls later, I realize it is very good that I don't keep much important data in any single place - like say a laptop hard drive - and that I have smart friends.

Peaches is very, very handy with hardware in a way that I can't even approach. So he was able to save the raw files from that morning's podcast recording session.

Tonight it'll go up and I'll finish reloading all the software I like on my newly reimaged hard drive.

Thank you for inspiring me to do another backup. Hoo. I would like to buy you a drink, miss.

As if the LOST roundtable wasn't a meltdown enough??? sounds like early bloody mary day, to me.
