sugarplumkittyOur PC's in the living room are on the only outlet near our recliners which happens to be controlled by a switch. We stopped turning the switch off when he got a non-laptop for the living room months ago. So last night when we closed down the front of the house, where my laptop was doing the clone thing that would last all night, what did he do? He flipped that switch without thinking.
When he got up and tried to start his computer this morning, he realized what he'd done and came very sheepishly to me saying I was going to be really angry with him. I was upset but not angry. Heck, humans make mistakes and he was so very sorry already there was no point to be made with an angry outburst. I sighed and went out there to start the process over. 12 hours, it says.
ARGHHHH! All my notes are on that laptop. All my schoolwork and assessments and such. If it weren't down to 3% free, I'd be tempted to do this another time because I've got to get some homework done!! But I can't defrag it and it's starting to have problems from no disk space. This has to happen now.
Maybe I should insist he take me to see Borat as penance.
