On Monday, sitting in the hotel waiting for our ride to the airport, my laptop started getting reeeeeeallllllly ssssllllllooooowwww. Most likely the hard drive is dying. So for now I'm using our back-up laptop, an older Gateway running XP.

I have back ups of critical files, and a full disk image from a few months ago, but until we get the drive replaced and the laptop back up and running they will just have to wait.

Meanwhile, I can only send email to those people whose address I remember, or who I've been contacting through my gmail account. LiveJournal and FaceBook have also been handy.

I'm sure I'll have my main email back up and running soon, but for now it would be easier if you contacted me through gmail : alicebentley.su AT gmail DOT com [alicebentley was already taken, and I mostly use this account for my Seattle U stuff].
