A Demon Can’t be Hurt

<rant>

I’m super-mega-ultra pissed off right now, so I probably shouldn’t be writing. Whatever. I’m trying to rework my photo galleries (locally I’ve got over 1 1/2 gigs of image files) and have been writing batch files and crashing Adobe Photoshop. While that was frustrating enough, my photography directories are now causing Windows Explorer itself to crash whenever I access a folder. I’ve been trying to recover from a CD backup, but Explorer crashes whenever I try to copy those files to my hard drive. I still have another backup on Nonsense which I am currently attempting to recover through my ghetto FireWire network.

Foofaraw and I both have our personal demons. I’m sick and tired of computers and I’m sick and tired of work because ever since I broke my god damn leg, it’s all I’ve been able to do. Work, web design, computers or whatever are like thumb-twiddling for me; I’ve got to be doing something, busy doing anything or I start skidding into that dark abyss. These are my intellectual pursuits, which, under any other circumstance I do a fairly decent job balancing with physical activity. But now, well, it’s like my fscking leg is broken.

…okay, things are working better now.
