1. I am too cold and my computer is too hot. I don't understand why I'm so cold.

2. My writing program ate the entire contents of one of my WIP files. IT'S FINE IT'S NOT LIKE I WAS WRITING THAT >:[ Thankfully I am obsessive about backing up my writing (literally every time I shut off my computer, so several times a day) and so was able to recover it. Idk what that was all about.

3. What the fuck am I going to do with this moo box seriously. Why did you give me this, random person. ._. At least I also made off with a detailed breakdown of Drama At The French Lightsaber Leagues.

Augh, sympathies!

I too am paranoid about backups. I once lost a novel to computer issues.

Fortunately it was the novel I wrote in middle school, so actually Murphy was doing humanity a service, but boy did I learn my lesson...

Bah! I'm glad you had backups. Data loss is terrible. I have periodically and paranoiacally printed out things I really care about for years.

A NOVEL? :O

I lost 800 words of a yuletide treat once (on December 23rd) so now it's back up back up back up.

[dhampyresa]

I should print more stuff, that is true.

Whoa shit, what program is it? (Also this is why I back that shit right up every time I worked on any fic, too.)

1. Are you feeling better? You mentioned in a more recent post that you're swimming, could the two be related? Or it's possible that you're equipped with an extra cooling fan that you need to take out and mount on your computer.

2. What's your writing program? Asking for a friend.

[dhampyresa]

It's FocusWriter. For what it's worth, it's the first time I've had an issue and I'm not excluding that it might be user error.

[dhampyresa]

1. I am, thank you. I'm not under warranty anymore :(

2. It's FocusWriter. Have not had any previous problems, could be user error.

Moi aussi, je fais des sauvegardes tout le temps. Sinon, c'est moins efficace, forcément.

Argh on the lost words! I hope you manage to retrieve them.

Et pourtant, on se fait souvent avoir!

I did! I had to go back five days in my back-ups, but I got it all back.

Sometimes we just get colder than usual at certain times of year as our bodies adjust and sometimes it's something simple like being a bit anaemic. My gran always recommended putting your feet on a hot water bottle to warm up your whole body.

Your gran is A GENIUS. It's my feet that are especially cold, so this will be a great help, thank you!
