This is what happens when I plan on writing.

The new Sonnets is nearly up, but it was been since about two days since the last chapter.

First time I planned on writing it I became incredibly ill... Then it screwed up my meds... Then I lost internet and access to the documents... And now, just as I finish another scene, my brand new laptop decides that biological warfare isn't enough.

So my brand new laptop is broken.

I've hooked up the old Batcomputer to my old laptop through the E-Sata cables, which then daisy-chains onto the new laptop's harddrive to check for faults using the working display of the old laptop.

You see, the old laptop's power supply is shot, so I've cannabilized the old desktop into a glorified power supply, whilst the motherboard and harddrive of my new laptop is not operational, so I'm using the old laptop with the new laptop's harddrive tacked on as a raid.

This is three goddamn machines working in a symphony of dysfuction. I'm in heaven, or hell, I'm not entirely sure yet.

Turns out the harddrive is fine but the connection between the harddrive to the motherboard is fucked. Beyond fucked, even. This is now just a fancy goddamn paperweight and it had an assessment due today on it... And the partitioned harddrive, because I hadn't factored in that being the only thing to NOT goddamn fail.

In lighter news, I dub my three-computer circle-jerk monstrosity "Daisy-Chainkenstein" Also I have received an official correspondence with ThermalTake for pointing out grammatical errors in their ads. Hooray!

UPDATE: IT LIVES.

Oh, I have backups, and backups of backups.

I have a partitioned harddrive, two externals and all my documents are also in online cloud storage... So I haven't *lost* anything, it's just rather unfortunate that I have nothing to work with at the moment.
