Hong Kong and Macau

Photos are up.

When I have more time to reflect on my travels, I'll talk about them.  For now... enjoy the photos.

YARGH!

My laptop... the one that had a cup of tea 5 months back... decides it wants to work again.  Unfortunately, my previous archive drive is likely to be dead for good.  Great news... My laptop is working.  Bad news, I still have to give Lenovo a piece of my mind about their warranty policies... That, and my Sansa clip is still non-operational.

HDD

Ugh... Found out I can't recover my lost hdd at home.  If I want some of the photos back, I'll have to send it in to a professional to get it fixed, and unfortunately that'll cost too much.  I'm missing most of this year's earlier photos, the last bits of when I was in college.  Fortunately (or unfortunately) I wasn't taking too many photos early in my trip to Japan, so the loss isn't as great.  I think I've also lost some important documents too... but I think those are somewhat recoverable as I go along.

Sigh... what a pain in the ass.

On another note:  Life is starting to settle down and I'm starting to become productive again.  Let's see if I can keep it up today.
