Overall it's been both a very good, and very bad week. I'll try to explain in alternating terms.
Good: Last week at best buy, after that I'm on to my real job with HMIS! I havn't talked much about this because well, It's still very new and I'm not sure how well I'll adjust to the new hours/workload yet, but, it looks to be a lot of fun.
Bad: CapitalOne, my credit card company for the last 6 years or so, completely hosed me. A simple phone call regarding changing one of my account options lead to them closing my account (which they swear up and down I authorized them to do) and refusing to re-activate it. On top of that they zero'd the account balance when it closed, effectivly decimating my checking account. I am broke, and broke like I have never been before. Thank god my parents are cool and loaned me some cash to cover my car payments/etc.
Good: Mt iBook is back from apple SVC, and only 2 DAYS after I sent it to them, completely repaired! WEEEEEE!
Bad: Demon's primary HDD failed yesterday, effectivly taking the machine offline until I can afford to replace the main disk. The disk in question was an IBM 75GXP, and has been making some odd noises this week, but with everything else going on I kinda ignored it. (look up 75gxp's online, you'll see why that's relevant). Everything new this month (only like 2 weeks worht of work) was effectivly lost, and I really freaked out.
Good: Lucky me, after dismantling the drive (yea yea, your not supposed to open those, but I know what I'm doing. I'd rather risk contaminating some of the disk and getting a bit of data back that just giving up completely) I was able to get almost all of the last few weeks data moved to my media storage drive. A few CRC errors stopped me from getting all of it, but I'm not to worried now.
