No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I hope the data is unaffected, Sara. Yikes! I know it must suck not to be able to assess the damage. I think this requires you to apply a piece of chocolate and a cup of tea, stat.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Sounds more like maybe a shot of hard liquor. That's a nightmare.

My home hard drive is making weird noises, so I did an immediate backup of all my writing. It's the only irreplaceable stuff on my computer (I can bear to reinstall Dungeon Siege and The Sims).

ServerS* probably got a power cut shutdown. I think. Which is also problematic, even if they are physically ok. Which....THUMPWHOOOSH.

I called a friend at the AAS to let other work people there know since they can't access email!

I don't know what to do with myself. I guess I can go return some shit to BestBuy and then go swimming.

Because books.

Holy shit, sara. That sounds like a giant, messy clusterfuck. I'm sorry.

If I brushed my eyelashes daily, I'm afraid they'd be gone in a week.

That sucks, sarameg. I hope you can retrieve everything you need from the servers.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Gah, Sara. That's awful.

The Angry Birds reference reminds me: I got this delightful poetry filk in the Yuletide fic exchange.
