Idiot!
God I'm a moron.
I checked some stuff this morning before my class, and saved a few things on my flash drive while using a computer in the lab. Yeah - left the flash drive behind and didn't realize it until about 8 hours later. Naturally now that I've come all the way back to retrieve it - gone. I've already asked the people to ask about it being turned in, and what do you know? No one turned it in. Right, because the yuppies at this school can't afford one of their own? Whatever. So now I'm out $60, out a flash drive, and more importantly, all the work I've done in the last year. Everything. GONE.
Thank god for technology - at one time or another, I've emailed nearly everything to someone or recieved it from someone, so checking back through my Sent folders and checking my filters and everything, it looks like I have everything. The only problem is that I started using the flash drive for everything because this fucking computer has a habit of randomly crashing and deleting files (What, a Dell? Say it ain't so! *rolls eyes*). So now I'm afraid everything is going to be lost again. Which means to be *really* smart I should get another flash drive - but who the hell's got that kind of money right now? I sure as hell don't.
Stupid life. *kicks it*
Okay, I'm off to finish researching for this presentation. We'll see how that goes. I'm looking forward to making dinner, though. I baked some pumpkin bread this afternoon (which made the apartment smell HEAVENLY), and for dinner I'm making Chipped Beef on Toast circa my mum. I'm rediculously excited about it. Also - as a side note. Is it wierd that eating only a slice of bread today has made me feel full all day long? Ah well, I'm not worried.
