We brought our computer in today, and the news are: the hard disk is wrecked, completly. I never learned the lesson, I never made a backup. Years of photos gone, all my graphics, everything. The computer wasnt even two years old.

Lessons learned:

Backups, backups, backups.

“Cheap” things are just no good. The computer wasnt that cheap, but too cheap apparently.

I hate pity (important!), its ok. Lessons are repeated until they are learned. I hope I did this time.

The heat is unbearbale. I dont know where to move to make it bearable. I am still waiting for yesterdays promised cool down.
