I Should Have Been Eve

Today I went to Powell to do some typing. I decided I should compile information into something comprehendable to study from for my midterm tomorrow. I biked over there and went to the computers. When I got there, a bunch of computers are free and I said to myself, "Apple or Microsoft?... Apple. Hmm... wait, there aren't any available. Microsoft it is then. Damn. Oh well, it's just for word processing."

So I sat down at the computer and began typing. I worked for about 6 hours.

I went to print my three documents, and clicked out of them to email them to myself. Wait. Where did they do? How come they aren't under "documents?" I searched for them with that stupid dog thing that can't do anything, but didn't find anything. I thought I was going to die. God was seeking his revenge upon me for all the things I had done... just this weekend was sinful enough, I can't even imagine my lifetime... After a while of searching I went to the techies. They couldn't help me. They were just as baffled. First of all, just because you can operate a Microsoft OS, doesn't entitle you to the title of "Techie."

They didn't know. Gah.

Except one techie. On techie came to me, and he discovered the problem. It got mysteriously moved to the c-drive. And only an administrator could access it. Apparantly, the program to access it wasn't installed yet. [Ok, first of all, what the fuck is that? A person should not have to install a program in order to access their files. Seriously.]

Were there any admins there?

YES. He was just about to go home. Wow.

And he got my files back for me. Yay. I only had to get a heartattack to get them back though,

Anyways, the moral of the story is to always use a mac because it doesn't do stupid shit like that. Spotlight is the best thing in the world. Also, if there aren't any macs available to use, wait for one. And if the room doesn't have one, just leave -- evil resides there. Don't trust a PC to do anything but check your email. And maybe not even that.
