almost a disaster

so i set out to post a blog entitled "technical difficulties, part II" because the last time i downloaded the pictures from my camera onto the computer, they disappeared for what i thought was forever. my first thought was, where is one of those genius computer analyst/hacker people from 24 when you need 'em? it really is almost scary what they can do, but i really could've used their help so luke wouldn't know me as the person that lost a chapter from his childhood. how sad would that be? my second thought....well, i decided to stop thinking about it because it was just too sad. anyway, today i put the newest pictures on the computer and a little box showed up and said it was going to import all of my pictures...and lo and behold, the lost sheep were found! by lost sheep i, of course, mean the pictures that were gone forever. they're not gone! i guess i didn't need a hacker person after all. maybe i'm a technical genius after all. or windows vista is just really smart. we'll go with option 1 for fun and my own ego boost. long story short (or even longer as the case may be), all is well with the world, or at least the last month of luke's little life is safe and sound on my computer's hard drive. its a christmas miracle :)
