I always thougth that bad luck happened to other when it comes to computer glitches, especially for texts. I always been lucky enough to never loose data. Well, today, I wanted to access a text. I discovered that the text I opened only had two pages and I knew it had more. Even the backup had the same problem. My only hope now reside in the paper version I have and where I made some improvement. It will be a pain to type it all over again. I guess that I am not immune to technological gliches. I just wonder that even safeguard had failed me too. I still wonder how it got to this way. I come to think it had to do with some unforeseen curruption or an accidental mishap on my part.
I don't understand what happened. I guess it may be time to find a third way to safeguard all of my texts. I have a lot of big chunky long texts. I put a lot of effort in them. On the other hand, I am lucky to have learned how to type fast. Not fast enough to my taste but enough that I will be able to repair this glich. At least, I have discovered all this. Not too late to fix it.
Technology is good. It is nice to keep my texts on a computer and where I can edit them easily. In my experience in other area, when technology goes bad, it is a pain. It is not funny, especially the alternative that must be taken. This may be why I am not too deeply immersed in technology. My texts are the most important data I have on my computer.
Now, this event force me to work on my texts and be more up to date in my revision.
