To my very great joy and delight, this afternoon when I came home from dropping my husband off for a summer-long deployment overseas, I discovered that my computer seems to have eaten not only all the text in ALL my .txt and .doc files, but also all of the data saved for my maps.
...to include my ENTIRE homebrew setting, its pantheon, history, characters, calendar, notes, keep designs, some of my personal records for other family stuff, and five f-'n years' worth of digital pictures of our children.
I have some of my unrevised homebrew setting stashed on diskette. The rest is gone. I'll be re-downloading our RG, IC, and OOC information over the course of today. Since I have no idea what's happened to my data, I advise all of you to please take extra caution when communicating with me via e-mail. My computer is set up to do a complete virus scan every night at 3 am, and I haven't seen anything wrong to date but that certainly doesn't mean that the bloody machine isn't infected with something particularly tricky or nasty.
I've gone ahead and posted in the IC.
