Always Back Up Your Files!

“WORD CANNOT OPEN”

I had my first panic attack over a supposedly lost file today. “Word cannot open blahblahblah”, it said, but all that stood were the words “WORD CANNOT OPEN”. Ever had that happen to you? You see something that’s really inconsequential but it makes you hold your breath and teeter on the edge of your seat and scream until someone gets rid of the spider for you? Yeah. That’s how I felt. But it’s all good now. I got the file open in the end and e-mailed myself a copy. Go me!

The moral of today’s story, kids? Always back up your files! Especially if they contain several thousand words of writing. Heck, even losing a thousand words of writing is something to cry for.
