It doesn't feel like it has been six days since I posted last. I have been playing catch up, I guess. I mentioned that the wife's hard drive died, but I left it there. Not bothering with all the details, SpinRite managed to work some magic, and I was able to recover the files. I seriously thought there was a dropped platter or the head was grinding into one at least, but somehow SpinRite fixed it (there were two unrecoverable sectors, but everything else was fine). After finishing off the wife's computer, I tossed the drive in my laptop, reloaded Windows, and it has been working fine ever since.
I finally got around to finishing the second ending of Grand Theft Auto 4. It was just as unimpressive as the first one. Again, I won't go into details, but you get to choose which opinion matters most to you: your idiot cousin, or the sister of one of your friends. Maybe it was just me, but I didn't care about either one of their opinions, so betraying them didn't mean anything to me, nor did it bother me when the person I sided with died. But I am glad it is over. I am still kinda sad that I bought it full price shortly after it came out and only bothered to play it recently...normally I don't bother to buy games until they have been out for awhile.
Other than that, I have been dividing my time between work on the page, reading comics, and getting annoyed at myself that I have not been writing. But for the most part, the page should be slightly more protected against sql injection attacks (not that it has been a real problem given the smallness of my site), and I am about half-way caught up with the comics I have been ignoring all year. Hopefully my distractions will poof and I can get back to my novel, but for now, I need to get some sleep.
