Broken Down & Overwhelmed.
I wanted to let everyone know my computer died Saturday. The hard drive failed and I lost everything on the computer including photos, dissertation work, everything. My last back up was July 5 so I only lost 3 weeks worth of work and photos ... if I didn't back things up, it could have been devastating. As it stands, it's just headache-inspiring.

And luckily, I have a 2-year warranty on the computer. ((I am SO glad I got that warranty now)) They are going to put in a new hard drive on Tuesday (totally free, free, free) and I'll have to rebuild everything then ... so I'm apologizing ahead of time if I don't post until then.

Hopefully I'll be back Tuesday night with a Wampi update and photos. Wampi gets his X-rays sometime this week and hopefully his cast off but I don't know which day yet ... Urban Vets is waiting on the X-rays from the Animal Medical Center to come in so they have x-rays to compare with new ones and they can assess his progress.

Feel free to leave comments everyone and pin the guest map while I'm gone!

(I have officially named this summer - The Summer of Broken Things.)

Oh, jeez, just what you needed! Sorry to hear about this. Might want to consider investing in an external drive.

Hi Everyone!

I'm a friend of Cam's from graduate school and I want to thank all of you who are visiting the site and linking to it. All your help through the lovely words of support, great pet photos, donations, tech assistance, and recycling efforts, is awesome.

Cam is the real thing...there is no scam here, so I am happy to see that some of the negativity of recent weeks has kept away. Cam is such a positive and giving person that she can't even relate to negative comments and they don't bring her down...but this site still has no room for them!

Cam, sorry to hear you're having tech problems. Miss you...glad to see Wampi is doing well!

Thanks again to all of Wampi's new friends out there.

Love Stef

Sorry to hear about your computer, but at least it will be free to get it fixed.

It is true...Dan is crazy. Not to mention a pillar of tolerance and compassion.

I can only hope that nothing that Dan treasures befalls any harm, or should it happen that it would, may he never know the hate and ignorance that he himself has shown.

May Dan get back 10 fold all that he's shown himself to be.

Dan, you're a mean-spirited old hack that's probably divorced and has to pay alimony to your ex and her 5 cats! LOL!!!!! :-) A pox on your next sleep-over date, buddy.

Wow. I'm gone for a few days and a troll sneeks onto the site. Bad troll. Bad troll! Crazy Dan's thinking is as flawed as his grammar! lol.

Thanks everyone for sticking up for Wampi. I've had a few really rough days. =)

p.s. - still waiting for the comp. repair guy ... hopefully he will call or get here soon!
