This morning it was working just fine, and then later I tried to wake it up from standby mode, and it never woke up I took it into the mac store, and was promptly informed that the clicking sound I had heard meant that my hard drive had died (that's the technical term mind you ) and that I would lose anything that I hadn't backed up. Which by the way was everything. Ironically, I had been thinking for the last couple of weeks that I should really back up my hard drive, because my whole life is on my computer!

When I think of all of the pictures of my kids that I will never see again, it makes me sick.

Anyway, my real purpose here was not to complain, but to save my friends from such an awful fate.

So if you haven't done so already, please back up your hard drive, because it comes on fast and without warning. Especially back up your pictures, because those are precious and priceless.

In the mean time, I'll be posting via my husband's laptop...
