yesterday was probably one of the crappiest days I've had lately...

looking back at it, you know - from today - it probably wasn't so bad... but you know that wave of overwhelming that just engulfs you in a sudden rush... I was feeling that for about the whole afternoon to early evening yesterday.

if something is wrong, I try to handle it. that's what I do. I handle situations.

there are times when situations cannot be handled by me, either because of my inability or lack of availability.

well, it seemed that all of the situations yesterday decided to get a group rate on the ryan-can't-fix-this bus because everything I tried to do, lead me to a brick wall.

and given that my laptop was giving its death rattle (and at one point I thought I lost all of my data) I was rather flustered.

exasperated.

stressed.

I think the thought of losing all my data was the crack in the dam and everything were the little hits that brought the dam crashing.

fortunately, I was able to save off some data and get my laptop to tech support today... hopefully they will be able to get an image of my hard drive and I will not lose anything.

unfortunately for me, I am the type of person that has oodles of non-standard software and configurations.

why?

because I can.

because it's easier.

but whatever. It's gonna be a pain in the ass if I can't get my laptop today and if my data is lost.

eh.

oh well.

as I am on a spare computer, all I can do is IM, check e-mail and read blogs...

so.

here I go.
