And that suuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks.
Thankfully, most of my important stuff was backed up. Mostly online. Picasa, Google Docs, etc, etc.
In thinking about it... what I lost that I can't replace... the one that really bugs me - especially 'cause of my eye debacle this week, and missing the school sports day - was the approximately 200 pics I had snapped of the kids rehearsing for the event over the last week and a half. And the videos too. I hadn't finished editing them yet, so I hadn't backed them up online. That really sucks. I really wish I still had those.
And there was a bunch of random comedy internet pics I had planned on posting on the blog, and a bunch of comic books jpegs and other ebooks, that, honestly I hadn't gotten around to reading and wasn't sure if I would. But some of that is backed up too.
And some music I hadn't backed up. Though most of the music I had - I've got a bunch on my mp3 player I can load back onto the new computer, I imagine. I can't imagine ripping all those CDs/music I had on my old laptop - again - to the new computer. Time consuming as hell.
Overall, it could've been a lot worse. Frustrating though.
Back up your stuff, kids.
