Most of my recent disasters are too predictable to mention. Headaches from being thrown too hard. Achy knees hurt from falling on them. Mat burns on my elbows and knees. Abrasions on my feet. I could\u2019ve taken up something easier than Judo, but my earlier idea, ballroom dancing, probably is just as bad. Or the banjo. I\u2019m sure someone would\u2019ve hurt me if I kept playing the banjo.<\/p>\n

I was able to pull off a bunch of data before it really, truly decided it was dead today but two days of trying to set things back up and getting them working again was a large pain in the ass. At first I thought it was some nefarious hackers, but I\u2019m pretty sure it was mostly just bad luck with the hard drive. I should probably have a better backup plan, but it\u2019s all a matter of putting up with risks, and the risk of losing a bunch of data wasn\u2019t all that scary. It\u2019s all about clown computing, right?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
