They upgraded my work machine to XP today, and even though the IS guy supervising the operation gave my coworker the wrong instructions at one point which b0rked the backup of the old machine they do as part of the upgrade, I am 99.999999% OK because I'd already copied my important stuff to the network drive.*
The .0000000001% not OK is because I forgot to copy my bookmarks (annoying but liveable), and I forgot to write down the name of the free news server that I read Usenet from. HOWEVER ... the reason I'm posting this here is that somewhere, sometime, fairly recently, I posted a reply to ONE OF YOU (and I'm looking at you

* I am not quite as with-it as I sound: I didn't realize they'd be doing the backup. Good thing I didn't know, huh? Well, I'd probably have copied them over anyway, but you never know.
** I scanned your LJ and didn't see it, and wondering if I replied to you in someone else's LJ with it, maybe? I dunno.
