Discovered that some of the files on my phone's SD card have gone blank... Sad
Trying to restore most of them.
- music, I have on my laptop
- photos,... some are permanently lost, some were on the laptop, some are in the cloud.
- Still have to check the coPilot GPS maps.
Everything else is sort of perishable, but seems to be there...

It is curious that, of the two partitions I have, only the fat32 one got damaged... the ext3 seems fine.


That'll teach me to bring the damn phone close to a lot of machinery with a lot of crazy magnetic fields... Sad

Just back from the sunset watch at our local beach. Bit windy and high tide.

So nice to just watch the waves, smell the salty air, watch the gulls and see the sun sink into the Indian Ocean.

I'm on my break, but I wish I'd been in the office just now to find out what happened after I just heard my team leader go in asking "Hey, what's a batty boy?!". Then the door closed so I don't know how anyone dealt with that question.

I'm also feeling pretty happy because I spoke to my sister today and have her new Aussie number now so we can keep in touch. :D
Plus I have a fancy new camera so I can go out and take photos of stuff. Wheeeee!

Watching the ice dancing component of team skating.

Bottomed out my Audi on an exposed manhole cover on my street last night. Left a trail of oil down the whole street. Had to park in the yard. Going out now to inspect the damage... hopefully I just busted the oil pan. Dammit!

I'm still unsure whether I want to watch Sochi or not.

I'm not obsessed with the Olys (or any single sport or competition), but I usually enjoy some of it if, again, I don't obsess. That's been true with Sochi. I have seen the team figure skating and speedskating. I've enjoyed the figure skating much more than I thought I would. It's been lots of fun.

Speedskating wasn't bad, either, but this was on the long track, and I much, much prefer short track. And in packs, not alone vs. the clock.

I will say I'm not much fond of the judged slopesports, like moguls or slopestyle. Moguls I would like if it were speed only.

So, what am I doing? Watching ice dancing on the web.

Doing an exultant dance with my dog who's looking at me like I'm an idiot. Which I am. Because this:

plus this:

equals this:

But that's it. I got lucky, and the lower oil pan for my car is only like $60 on amazon. So this moment of stupidity for me won't cost me a new engine or major frame damage like I feared. Praise Jesus!
