Still Alive. *kicks computer*

[rhythmia]

I'm posting this from my mom's computer, because last night my brother turned it on, and it went from Compaq to a black screen, whirr-clicked for a bit, and then this message: Operating system not found. /o\

It also puts up a message about Incorrect Drive A, enter setup, but I think that's some kind of SOS because it doesn't have another way to express itself, since I haven't changed the floppy drive in any way. Won't boot from the CD, so I'm searching for another way. I bought this steady computer back in 2003, and it's worked, slow and steady til now. At least all the data's on a secondary harddrive, so I just have to get access to it.

In other news, got to meet up with erjika and most of the Lunch Bunch for the first time in...seven months? And erjika's setting off for Hawaii for work (omg envious) tomorrow, and T's back to the Caribbean for med school next week. I missed them, all of us together is a whole nother plane of weirdness. I always swear I'm going to bring a voice recorder to our gatherings because there are always hilarious quotes. This time mostly about balls, like the AC/DC song. :D Mmmm, tasty food. :D :D :D

Anyway yeah, I'm going to be flying to Saint Paul, Minnesota tomorrow morning for amoraj's wedding, will be there until September 1, so if anyone's in the area and wants to hang? Or if anyone has drabble prompts for me to write on the plane? ^__^

Much love to all <3

I just saw this post today... is the computer still broken?

[rhythmia.livejournal.com]

*sigh* yup. My techie coworker took the computer home with him to look at, and said he'd get back to me on it. The silly thing is broken in such a way that even the Bob drive that has all my data on it isn't readable for some reason when I connect it to my brother's comp. And after we tried that, today when my coworker tried to hook it up and look at it, it stopped registering both drives, even though it was still doing so a couple days ago when it first died.

I'm just hoping the data can be recovered, at this point. ;_;

How goes life, otherwise?
