Sigh...I really need to back up my computer. Just like I really need to clean the toilets in our house. Too bad those will never happen. Target would be my choice of sponsorship.

If not though, I would be in the same boat as you. We've had SO many damn problems with our computer lately, though... so another "scary computer meltdown moment" is likely to be around the corner. All of this made me LOL by the way. More than likely, when I see everyone at the meet-up, I'm going to be like, "You're nicoleisbetter.com, right? Oh, well I'm apricot-tea.com! Do you know when yourwishcake.com is coming?" =] =] Thankfully, I am married to a computer genius who thinks about backing up hard-drives & such. If not though, I would be in the same boat as you.

Sucks about the hard drive, seriously. I have an external one too, and I'm definitely guilty of never backing it up. I actually keep it in a ziplock bag in my closet because last winter, a pipe burst in my parent's living room over my sister's macbook and completely fried it. So in the mess of my mind, keeping it in a bag in the closet (away from pipes) makes sense, but I always forget about it back there.

It is awesome and means that there is no transferring requires. And the hard drive itself has a mirrored backup drive, because we are paranoid like that.
