Kazzzztttttt.
My computer's power source blew up (sort of) last Saturday. I panicked for a little bit and even bugged my friend Bogue who's in Osaka. To cut a long story - I had to reinstall my OS because my files got fried. Or something like that.
So I did. I figured I'd just overwrite the files in the dedicated drive where my old OS was installed. But since I didn't have enough space in that drive, I had to reformat. No problem, my documents were on a separate drive.
The reformat and the reinstall were a success.
Except the drive I chose turned out to be my dedicated drive for 20 gigs worth of MP3s.
Whew. Most of my MP3s are in my Zen. Plus most of the files were ripped from my CDs anyway, so no real harm done.
It's a VERY good thing that it wasn't my documents drive that got formatted. The one with all my photo files. If it had been that drive, I'd have thrown up all over the keyboard in grief.
But, I guess my luck held here. And to celebrate, I made myself a grilled eggplant sandwich using my new grilling machine.
Crunch.
