it feels like everything i own is on it's way out and it's time to get everything fixed or replaced all at once. spending hundreds of dollars (when i'm earning none right now) to replae al these things:
my camera lens broke - got a new one
my hard drive broke - sent it back for warranty (have yet to get a new one back)
my guitar wasn't working right - got a new one
my guitar cab speakers are going - need a new cab and/or new speakers
need a clean channel - need to buy a separate amp for clean
clothes and jeans ripping/getting thrown out on the bus - needed to buy new ones
ipod breaks - got a new one and the new one isn't working now.
and the final straw now... i hope. is my computer being broken in half yesterday. we were on our way back to the city from a nice week of being home (split between pittsburgh and at nicole's parent's house) and we arrive at the train and opened the trunk to my backpack falling from the top of the back straight down to the ground. i knew something was up... but i checked everything in the front, my camera, ipod, 4 track and other stuff was fine. when we got home i wanted to get started on some work... but my computer's casing was cracked in half and the screen was mostly ruined (except a tiny corner of the screen on the top i could see working, but the computer was going nuts). i'm hoping i can take this and get it fixed and all of my stuff will be saved... i have hundreds of songs that i've written on there, thousands of pictures i've taken, the latest video update in progress, my article and pictures for the aquarian, pictures for AP, tons of songs that i may never get back and programs that i got from friends.
anyway, enough complaining... i know there are people a lot worse off than me, i just had to rant becuase i am upset about how this has been turning out. it's so hard to keep things together on tour, and this wasn't even on tour. i had taken such good care of my computer over the past 2 years and the thing that might have done it is was so simple and not even my fault. well whatever, it happens, i guess no computer for a long time, or at least until we can get paid again.
anyway, back to work, or at least as much as i an do on nicole's computer

Yeah I know how bad it sucks to lose everything you have saved on the computer. Hope you can get all your saved songs, pix, and other stuff back. Always luv your pix!!! And of course we need the latest update...... I def. think you had your share of shit happen to you. See ya on the 5th!!!!
that sucks about your computer. i've been having a lot problems with mine and i just got it for christmas last year! and of course when you call up the company they aren't at all helpful. hopefully everything works out for you.
Regardless of your screen you could still get the data off the drive and on to another.
Hell, if you give me your old and new drive I could do it for you at work at Temple U.
i havent read this in a while. wow. thats uber weird. last week i broke my camera, my phone, my laptop and my car!! camera lens/screen, phone drowned, laptop split in half annddd the hard drive is full. and my car just decided to stop working.
at least its all fixable for both of us. even if money is a HUGE factor.
