I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that maybe it got, I dunno, fried by power surges and crashes??!
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Plus, didn't your a/c go out yesterday? An overheated server is a bad thing.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Oh yeah, that is my guess too, but why work for 4 hpurs this morning? Anyway about it IT needs to get out here and get it replaced.

Pretty common, actually. In the months after the UPS caught fire and we lost power, there was a fairly steady trickle of failures in systems. Things get physically stressed, a little corruption here and there, eventually it snowballs.
The Two-Mistake Rule is uttered a lot here (turning it off you your first mistake. Turning it back on is the second.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So today we have electricity, but we lost our server about 9:30
Where did you last see it? Work from there.
OH GOD PROJECT PLANS.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have basically done no work at work this week. At least I had some meetings? Oy,

I've spent most of the week trying to deal with putting what should go into a db into Excel because we've been told we're no longer allowed to use Access. Watch me swear. Watch me spend hours trying to figure out a simple task. Watch me go on tumblr instead.

I have cleaned off my plate, and I have nothing left to do at work. Relatedly, today will NEVER END.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think that is to be expected, Jesse. Did you take any time off?
