Happiest States

Well, the freezer trick didn't free up the crashed read heads in the old hard drive, so no data could be saved. I did have backups but the last couple of weeks of stuff is gone. Could be worse, I suppose.

Am moving this weekend. Will be finished by Christmas. This year has been an interesting time. Ironic that wish that on someone is a Chinese curse. Life goes on.
