After something like thirteen years of using a jackknife, one closed on my finger for the first time today. Morbid as I am, I peered inside the 3mm wound and thought, "Ooh--neat!" for about ten seconds before it started to bleed and a bandage became necessary. It was all pretty undramatic at the time, though it really started to frickin' hurt about ten minutes later.

No, this is not the most exciting thing that's happened to me in the past while; it's just the first time I've thought to write since I reinstalled Semagic. I had to restore my laptop to factory condition a little over a week ago--a task that is considerably more irritating to perform now that the OS restore is included on a hidden partition rather than a separate CD. It took four tries before I got [what appears to have been] a clean install.

As they say "Familiarity breeds contempt". You'll probably spend another thirteen years not trying to amputate a finger.

ah computer troubles.... i share your frustration! i finally took my laptop to get examined by professionals... turned out the problem was with the hard drive, so now i have a new hard drive! fortunately everything from my old hard drive was saved.

Glad to hear everything got resolved eventually.
