I love technology

My hard drive died yesterday. I brought it in to the local mac store so I could get a new hard drive -- it's four times the size of my old one because I bought my computer five or six years ago and they don't make them that small anymore. I've been teetering at the brink of not having enough space for at least a year, so it's a good thing, really, that I was forced to get more room. But having to reinstall everything is a pain.

I have files backed up, mostly, so it's just applications and settings that I need to recreate. Also, my new security settings that don't know anything yet don't like signing into LJ -- I don't know if this is generally what goes on with LJ or if it's having issues again. I'm sure that I lost more than I think I did, but if I don't notice, I'm sure it doesn't actually matter.
