Pleasantly abstruse.
Pain. Pain is pissing me off today.
Laptop hardware failure resulting in the loss of more than two weeks worth of work on a manuscript I was 99% done copy editing. Once the hardware problem was fixed, I tried system restore to retrieve what work I had done up through yesterday, but it’s gone. I should consider myself lucky, all my paying client work is complete and has been delivered to the clients, so I am able to rebuild my portfolio using the files in my GMail account. (It was an unpaid job, so I didn’t back it up.)
The saying ,”no good deed goes unpunished,” keeps taunting me.
It pays to keep a backup copy of work that is important to you.
Thank you for succinctly summarizing for me why I was “pissed off.”
Well we just finished the cotton wood and now we have all these honeysuckles blooming in my face. My antihistamine to blood percentage is about 5%.The milkweed in the park decided to say "Hello" and explode all over the place! They expel their seeds in white, fluffy clouds. I sounded like Darth Vadar when I was at the pharmacy!
Sarcasm is lost on you, isn't it?I hope it summarizes for you why you will be less "pissed off" in future.
Sarcasm is lost on you, isn't it?
Your comment to Donna was a "Captain Obvious" moment, her "thank you" in reply was obviously sarcastic, and you didn't seem to notice. It isn't "helpfulness" that I find offensive.My comment was meant to be constructive, as failing to save backups of important files causes problems for many people. If you find helpfulness offensive, that's not my problem.
