i love technology

You know when you have One Final Presentation to finish up the semester, and you work on it... oh say, yesterday. You save it to your network folder and your flash drive just to be safe. Then, hypothetically, the next morning you work on it some more. You're almost done, and really excited about it. You compulsively save it to both places again.

Then, for no apparent reason, your network folder disappears.

And your flash drive opens the presentation from yesterday.

So all the work you did today disappeared from the Face of the Technologically Defunct Planet.

I am trying really hard to be calm and not cry and pound my fists against the computer screen.
