Hard drive dead :(  
This month hasn't started well; first food poisoning and now it looks as if my external hard drive is dead. :( Gone with it is all my "fun" stuff: screen caps, Photoshop *.psd files, textures & brushes & a thousand downloads for Photoshop, videos...100 GB of cool stuff. *sigh*

I'll be buying a new one -- and it's not as if I lost valuable work stuff -- but it's my "Having Fun" drive. Damn. March has not been kind to me thus far. Sure hope it's done messing with me.

Sorry for your HD failure. At least you unleashed your inner geek to try to fix it. As Homer once said, "You tried and failed...the lesson is, never try."

Incidentally, I ran into Ginger (not literally, fortunately) at the VW dealership today. Small world!

I'm bummed that neither that nor the freezing worked. Frustrating, really, but it was a good thing for me to rip apart a drive. :) I never was interested in how things worked, only that they did. It's good to stretch one's comfort zone from time to time.

She mentioned it in a post here on LJ. I like to remind New Jersey-ites that Houston is larger than NJ. Y'all just live in a slightly smaller city than we do here in H-town. ;-)
