So I got my computer back a few days ago, and even though the mac people told me that they do not do data recovery an angel in the back did recover most of the hard drive. At least all of the projects that I have been working on, all of my programs are gone, so hopefully genopal and slideshow pro will still allow me to re-upload for no cost just to name a few. What a relief, I was not looking froward to having to spend hours and hours recreating sites from scratch! But I have learned my lesson, and now time machine updates hourly to prevent this from happening again. I love mac, I was definitely a little frustated, but they are awesome all around!

Template Madness
Why the 2 names, I don't get it, confusing. Anyways, I have been trying to upload a new template, instead of using one of these generic ones, they are boring. So I uploaded the first one I wanted to try out successfully, but after that I started getting this annoying error message. No other templates would load, including the ones that had worked before. So now I am stuck with one of these plastic like looking things. uuugghh, the story of my life. On top of that all of my widgets don't work anymore, I thought that if I saved the code from the original page and re-uploaded it then it should work. WRONG, everything was messed up, so don't change your template unless your prepared to loose all your widgets, unless your changing to one of the 20 that you can choose from on the blogger palette. :)

Hell has come into my life! So yes my mac's hard drive was erased and it totally sucks!!!
I am so pissed. I had alot of projects in the works, that will have to be completely recreated.
There is nothing that I can do about it! I do have a external hard drive, but it had not been updated in a while. I guess I am lucky though that I did not get compltely screwed time wise, I don't have any deadlines coming up that I am not going to be able to meet. But I very surprised at how mac has handled the whole situation, I have not even had the computer for a year, and I requested that the whole computer be replaced, but they would not have it, especially seeing as I use this machine for my work, so this is my livelihood here. I guess I will just have to wait and see if this hard drive problem was an issue with the computer itself, or something external. I will be making sure though to back up my hard drive regularly. I have to say having your hard drive erased off a computer that you use for work is similar in stress to someone dying, I pretty much had a nervous breakdown in the mac store a 2 days ago! AAAHhhhghggg...... Well this wont happen again, to me anyways, and I hope that it never happens to you!

Wow -
Today has been one of those days. Last Friday cox came down to install internet access in our new place. The guy that came was a complete loser, he was having a "bad day." More like he was having a bad life, and probably because he's too lazy too get things done. He basically took off before I could even test it on my computer and claimed that he called the company and that it was up, when in reality their system could not even recognize a connection with this location. I felt so bad for the guy that came today, he came almost 5 hours late, and was definitely the guy that was picking up everybody else's slack. I told him what happened Friday, and he was annoyed, he had to dig a line in the back to lay the cord underground and was sure that was why the other guy didn't do it, I'm sure it happens all the time. Why are people so adamant about getting out of having to do their job, I don't know. Meanwhile I have been waiting for internet access so that I can work on my design projects that require internet access, and I don't work on a laptop because the screens are not big enough. So that second thing that happened was that my computer broke, so then we were on the phone with apple support in Canada for about an hour, pressing all sorts of buttons. Basically the screen was blinking a folder icon with a question mark on it. So after all of that it was found that my computer is unable to communicate with its hard drive, so now we have to go down tomorrow to the apple store and pray that it can be fixed. I am pulling all of my hair our at that point! If I find out that the data is not recoverable, I think I might just have to blow something up! Well thats my vent for the day, hope you enjoy!

I think they are missing the 't. haha,
but yes I agree.
I cannot survive in a room without color, let alone music or something vibrating!
We are in the digital age, deal with it!
