Oh... that's bad, right?

Blue screen of death on my laptop... Plus my external hard drive isn't working, and my dropbox was full so... yeah, no back ups from anything past the beginning of March. I was going to back everything up on google drive last night, except... my laptop died yesterday afternoon. Unfortunate timing there.

This is what I get for being so pleased with myself for having gotten all of my autopsy reports done in a timely fashion this go-round. The universe smacks down smugness quick enough. At least it happened this past weekend so I have a week to recreate everything, instead of next weekend where it would have been impossible to get everything replaced. It will make this week unpleasant, but there's not much I can do about that.

Meanwhile, my laptop is dead. The IT guy thought it was a RAM issue, but when he tried to put my hard drive into another computer it wouldn't work. Off it went for repair. My external hard drive may also still be under warranty, which would be nice considering it has been living on my desk for the past 18+ months and not manhandled at all and shouldn't have a reason for failing (I'm a little frustrated by that...).
