Jul. 30th, 2007 03:30 pmSo my laptop is now safe and sound under my fingertips after many days in CICU (Computer..ICU...i'm funny. ha.)
All is well...i asked the guy in charge if he could load in a version of Adobe for me, and he did. nice guy. We also had a conversation that went like this:
Man: Your computer is pretty loaded. Worse case scenario, we clear it out completely. Is there anything you want us to save/backup?
(This was routine)
Me: Yeah. I want my pictures saved. I might have my documents saved elsewhere, but no matter what, i want my pictures saved.
Man: We get that alot. Pictures...got it. In My Documents?
Me: Yeah.
Man: So how about i save/backup that entire folder...yeah, we'll do that.
Me: Great, thanks.
Man: No problem.
*gets computer back...checks on My Pictures*
Not. One. Thing. Saved. Not one picture. Or document. Zilch. Nothing. Nada.
Friggin 'ell, man.
*cries*
