Laptop woes

[logansrogue]

Stress! Worry! Fear! Anxiety!

My laptop is so royally screwed right now, my Mum and I are not sure of what to do next. The thing is so buggered that it hardly runs for a couple of minutes without crashing. Mum's trying to do Vista disk recovery but she can't.

What we want to do is get my important files off the disk (novel drafts, mainly) and then reformat. I'm so upset right now, at the thought of losing the new chapters to my story, Amaryllis. If I've sent you a copy in the last month, can you mail it to me? That will most likely be my latest version.

It's the fanfic I'll break my heart to lose. My Mummy Returns fics that I've been working on for *years*. My RPG drafts. My Secret Garden stuff. Oh man, I'm just bereft.

Mum's not sure what to do now, and I'm getting actual heart palpitations at the thought of losing years and years worth of work. Lyrics to songs I've written! Oh God.

Well, I'm going to bed now but tomorrow I want to get my files off. I've gotten the stories off, but I really want to get my Sims neighbourhood off that I was working so bloody hard on. I mean I spent *hours* upon hours building that fucking thing up, and I would be majorly bummed to lose it. Plus I have a cache of Fourth Doctor episodes that I don't want to have to download again.

So I guess that's a yes. LOL. You can get lotsa hugs too!
