anthimeria: A happy wolf pouncing on a packmate, reads "Triumph!" (Triumph!)
[personal profile] anthimeria
I have FINALLY acquired my new laptop, and with the help of tech support, forced Windows 7 to accept my backup from Windows XP.

First: YAY!  I didn't lose any writing!

Second:  . . .  all the files are alphabetical.  With none of the previously-existing folder structure.

Which means every document called "Plot" is right next to every other document called "Plot," and I will have to go back in and create an organizational structure from scratch.  Which is going to take forever and a day.  But at least nothing's missing.

(Well, okay, I lost everything I didn't have backed up, like the page proofs from S&S and the constantly-out-of-date to-do list I kept on my desktop, but whatever, I have the most important stuff.)

I am also in a festive mood, so I would like to wish everyone to whom it applies a Merry Christmas!
