So, this weekend I got all wigged out about zombies. No, I have no earthly idea why -- these things just happen sometimes.
Today, it's the Fear of a Crashed Hard-drive. Two of my contribs had hard-drive crashes this weekend -- which ups my tally of mayhem to 4 dead computers in 1 year, two crippling back injuries, and one nervous breakdown. Just for my contributors. I am not a mean editor, I swear! In any case, I bought a USB flash drive to back up my feature package I'm editing. And since Staples is right next door to The Compleat Strategist, I spent an unseemly amount of time ogling the dice. I think I need help.
And just to ice the paranoia cake, one of the stories is on potential global pandemics. Smallpox was a vicious disease. Just...awful. I hope we never see it unleashed in the population again. The rest of the day will be spent contemplating the awfulness of this virus.
