toasted hard drive and general laziness cause drop in posts

about a month ago now, my internal hard drive died on me with a terrible screeching sound. I sent it home with Jen, thinking Dell would require me to send it in. There just sending a new hard drive that I get to install and configure myself. Traci's got her new computer, though I only use it to check the email account that never has anything important in it. So I'm going to continue the slacking for a while longer, unless something gives me the urge to update.
