Funny how some sleeping dogs just won't lay...
So I used to have this computer that I built myself. It was my baby. It held all of my secrets, my musical projects, pics of my son, and a lot of original digital art that I did. It also held a ton of programs that I used to make the projects and art. It was a beast. Sadly, my computer made it's transition one night in Oct of 2009. I'm not exactly sure why of how it happened...but one night before bed, I decided to back up my computer. Something inside of me was worried that anything could happen, and I needed to be safe. Now, I do make it a habit to back up my computer about twice a month as it is, because it's just the right thing to do, but for some reason, something inside of me just wanted to it one more time. So I prepared a the back up drive, and shut off the main computer for the night to give it a break (I usually run my computers non stop, only putting them to sleep when not in use). So i was tired and decided I needed to go into sleep mode too, so I crashed for a few hours, looking forward to getting back to work the next day...but little did I know that tomorrow would never come. The next morning I woke up, went to the office to start my baby up...nothing. No hard drive recognized. After trying everything in my very locally limited power to bring my hard drive back from the dead, I conceded defeat and was heart broken over my loss.
Now, the reason why I even bothered to mention the above is because in the last year I have had moments where my current life is still feeling the impact of the death of my deceased computer. Every now and then I may need a picture, or a song sample or something like that. Well today was/is no different. Today I had a chance to finally talk with the good people over at Incentive Solutions, about some t-shirt marketing and what's requested? Old logo PDF files that were located on the old computer. If you haven't had a chance to see any of my dj logos, check them out here. so now I'm faced with trying to redo all of them, or trying to convince the marketing team to work with PNG files or worse.
...ahh...you are still missed computer...
