Douche this!
I really fucked up today.

I bought another Seagate SATA 300 gig drive, installed it, then went into the motherboards SATA RAID settings and striped it with the already existing drive. This made it look like one 600 gig drive to Windows, so guess what?

That almost 300 gigs worth of music GONE!

GONE!

I can get it all back. It will take time, and I will have to rerip all my CDS, and copy the CDS I have already ripped, and redownload, but fuck that is so disappointing.

On a happier note, I got the case in the mail today so now \master has a new shell. I need to go through my boxes of computer stuff to see if I have the hardware to install my case fans, and I also the cable for the power lights is not long enough so I will need to extend that out to make it look pretty. I also looked at my power supply and it is 400 watts. I almost shit myself; I thought I had a 550 in there. I am running 2 CD/DVD ROMs, an AMD XP 3.2 and fan, 4 hard drives, a front case fan, a rear case fan (with more soon) 2 video cards one with a fan on it, and one of those hard drive cooling fans over the 4 fans. So when I saw 400 watts, I immediately went to Price Watch and bought a 700 watt for $50.

I have a bunch of pictures I need to upload; I will take pictures of the new \master and post those as well.

For some reason my battery back up is not working the way it should. I have been getting a bunch of brown outs causing all my electronics to shut off, and my battery is not kicking in. I need to write APC and see if they can help me with it or if it is time for a new battery. Fuck, just what I need, another $300 expense. I am already going to spend another $230 on memory, another $200 for a hard drive for the new \slave, and whatever else pops up. I am looking at probably $1000 total by June for computers.

Do any of you watch The Daily Show? Did you see the one from Thursday? Go to the site and watch The Goodbye girl! Especially 2 minutes into the clip! Fucking shit! "...find the best man woman or minority! What the fuck! Trent Lott! It is 2006 and we have racist assholes like these making decisions for us? What a fucking douche bag.

Oh, one more fucking thing before I go. I got a call at work around 5:50am, it was my supervisior, she told me that I no longer need to log the escelatoins I have been logging the last almost month. Fuck ya! So I came in today, had Ian spend a few minutes setting up the script, and they are all gone. Deleted, no more. Out of here. There is no turning back. Hopefully I don't get another call with them changing their mind, well I guess it really doesn't matter anymore.

They are no more.
