Haha...Crap...

Remember a month or two ago, my EHD wouldn't turn on? But then later that day it just randomly switched itself on? Well, I backed up a LITTLE bit of it...but for some reason or another, it stopped itself during the night (it needed permission to overwrite a file or something) and then I never went back and did it. And then I just never turned the non-working EHD off, lol...

I KNEW moving my desk was a bad idea!

I had to turn off the EHD so that I could move my desk, obviously...and well...it won't turn on. I left the power button ON all night so that if it wanted to randomly start again it could...but so far, nada.

I wanted to scrap SO bad last night, but couldn't...because ALL my kits are on that EHD. Doh! At least I know that the data isn't corrupt, I'm just having issues with the power...I'm not getting any errors or anything like that. So one of my BIL's should be able to save it, lol...I hope. But what a PITA...I won't see either one of them for at least 2 more weeks!

Guess I need to go on a shopping trip in the store, huh? LOL! Good excuse! Well, technically I have been shopping all week - I'd pick up something that I needed to finish off a layout, lol...but now that I've got NOTHING, I guess I need to grab a few MORE things...

oh crap Bree!! I hope it will kick back on for you.

Booooo *shakes fist angrily at your EHD*

I hope it decides to kick on for you and if not hopefully your BIL can help.

Ah crap!! I hope it kicks back on for ya soon!!

EHDs are the tampons of scrapping supplies: absolutely necessary, but what a PITA.

[Don't make the obvious joke there, Annie, abt how if they're a PITA, you're not using them correctly. I know you want to. Resist.]

LMAO, LA...dude, you make me laugh.

I'm not really upset about it, it just makes scrapping a bit difficult. All my photos, MOST of my designing tools and my layouts are on my bigger (1TB) EHD. I don't like having it on though because it buzzes and squeals after about 10 minutes. Irritating!

LOL, I *was* backed up - to my EHD.

No for real, I did start backing it up to my 2nd EHD, but it stopped and then I never remembered to turn it back on when I didn't need to use it (because of the incessant squeal/buzz thing), so my kits never got backed up. But all the important stuff IS backed up.

son of a bisquick. that's stinks.
