I hate technology.

Ugh. Stupid computers.

I was up late working on my essay and when I woke up my laptop was off. I turned it on to look for the essay, and word didn't autosave it :/

so 6 hours worth of typing down the drain. I have to start ALL OVER AGAIN.

I just emailed my professor to let him know what happened. Hopefully he'll let me turn it in late.

It may still be floating about in your system:

Also, if you are using Open Office or Word, set it to make a backup copy every time, and autosave. It takes up some disk space, but after losing two days worth of writing, I will never have a wordprocessor again where I don't set that.

That'll teach you to save every hour.

every hour? I have it set to save every 5 minutes.

I'm taking no chances!
