Is that irony, comeuppance or just bad luck?

So yesterday I sat down to write a little essay on media management that was going to find it's way onto this blog at some point.

While editing video quite successfully for the previous 5 hours, 120 words of unmediated brilliance on that topic (media management) were enough to completely blow the hard drive away. Damn machine thinks it doesn't even have a drive installed. Tekserve (local computer repair shop) has it now, and think it needs a completely new drive. I'll have lost about 3 days work on a short film, most likely. Otherwise, the hit isn't too bad.


(p.s. why does the spell checker on blogger not know the word 'blog'?)

hello world.

this is a new blog whereupon I intend to share my opinions on sundry matters. I also hope it will help me make my writing better by practicing.
