Well I managed to get my paper in yesterday. On top of having to retype it, I couldn't get the uni webmail to attach the doc and had to fiddle around for ages before I submitted it just minutes before the deadline! Then I took the computer to the other side of town (through the rain) where they told me that they might be able to recover my data but not under warranty. That was a really bad day!
But now I'm on vacation for a week. This was meant to mean that I'd be blogging and chatting a lot more than I could before with so much work to do. But now my major artery to the outside world is cut. I feel quite naked in my apartment with a telephone my only means of communication! I guess this means I'll get some reading done.
But the good news is the weather is getting much better. It's warming up enough to go outside without a coat! Soon it will be hot and humid like it was when I first arrived.

It's a conspiracy - a test to see if you can deal with not just academic life, but the problems of REAL life!!
I hope the people at Apple can do something about your computer. Even with IT people situated just down the corridor, my computer screen has been flickering purple for months!
Vacation? You American, you.
Oh Nick, I'm so sorry, I remember suggesting fervently that getting more disk space inside your 'Book would be better than an external drive... and now you've lost so much stuff.
Assuming you're not looking to pay them for data recovery, would you like me to mail you a hard disk of around 40Gb with some of my music collection that I think you might like plus some Family Guy episodes, movies, anything you might be missing?
