Technology Strikes Again?

Man, I'm not having much fun with technology lately. I get a new camera, cool! My archive hard drive goes up in smoke, wiping out all the new images from a dedicated photo shoot taken with the new camera. Double bad. I have a full DVD back up that's only a few days old, but it's really annoying to loose this drive.

All my website software is pathed to this drive, and I'm in the process of finaly launching this site Live this weekend, and it's a major inconvenience to work around not having this drive.

Plus, now my friend Bob Breaux and I have to redo the entire photo shoot for SoaringUSA. That's a major drag, because spare time is in short supply around here lately! To top it all off, it appears that my cell phone has finally given up, and no longer takes a charge, or responds in anyway. Battery tester indicates that it's got juice, seems to be an internal poweramp failure. Sigh.... Between the computer, camera, and now a phone, I'm feeling the pinch!

Naturally, this is the perfect time for my day job to give me the greenlight to proceed with the Intranet revamp that I started a while ago. On top of an ever increasing workload at the office, and the new side project (one of several), I am also supposed to be working up to my Structural Exam for my Architectural License. Piece of cake, right? Sure maybe, but I've also joined the gym next door to my office, now I just gotta figure out what part of the 4-5 hours of sleep to give up that I normally get, so that I can fit (pun intended) that to my schedule.....
