It's a man with nothing to lose who ends up losing nothing

Cleaning several pints of liquid laundry detergent off my bathroom floor, my kitchen floor, my hallway floor and my disconsolate sticky pointer before my second cup of coffee is not my idea of a good start to any day.

Just sayin'.

Also, my biggest hard drive imploded. Or something. It's always been rather prone to take sudden temperamental fits and unilaterally wipe great swathes of data, which is why I never put anything irreplaceable on it. I R SMRT. But this is new. I tried to save something to it yesterday morning to be told it's now under the impression it has never been formatted.

This is a lie, because there was a shitton of stuff saved to it. I don't want to format it if there's any other way round it, because although all that data IS replaceable, it would be a pain and take a long time. Anyone got any thoughts?

Edited to add: Also, I am out of sugar even though I went shopping yesterday. *sigh*
