My very third guest blog
The transcript of the second and final episode of my short-lived matchmaker show that should have fit right in on the Bravo network (fickle corporate shills) is over at RTB today. (If you missed the first episode, check it out here.)
This time we see things from the perspective of the would-be heroines.
Fur pants and naked mole rats are mentioned.
‘Nuff said.
(In completely unrelated news, I encourage you to back up all your documents, pictures, music, game saves, etc. RIGHT NOW. Thumb drives are your friends. You never know when your computer will suddenly, for no apparent reason, decide to make terrible noises and die, but it’s statistically more likely to occur when you have a lot of files that exist nowhere else. Just so you know, the Geeks’ going rate for info retrieval from a dead hard drive is more than you’ll probably pay for a new computer, and if that doesn’t give you some incentive to worship at the obsessive backup altar, I don’t know what will.)

Nothing. I got VERY lucky and it started up one more time for me and stayed on long enough to copy the necessities. I’m religious about double-saving on the antediluvian, batteryless laptop (where all the writing is done), but I’ve been very sloppy about backing up the 1-year-old, never-given-me-a-single-problem desktop, which has all of Angelic Daughter’s digital artwork and stories (to think, I came this close to losing “as do you, shibbity-boo” and my entire marriage to Sephiroth, father of my 16 children…) and our music downloads and some of my things like cover letters.
So, lesson learned, courtesy of a good panic. The Geeks confirmed it’s unable to be resuscitated and checked the files I managed to copy for viruses and such to make sure I don’t just transfer them to a new computer. It’ll be a while before I can get a new computer and Angelic Daughter is already going through internet withdrawal (the PSP is NOT good for web surfing, incidentally), but all things considered, it could have been much worse.
