I cannot tell you the depth of sorrow.

No, seriously. I have lost everything I had on my computer. Everything. Two years worth of writing, all gone. Nothing. And it's only my account.

Can I fully describe this? I swear, this might sound melodramatic, but it's like my life is gone. My writing. EVERYTHING. Even that beautiful fic, the one I was writing, the one I was SO DAMN PROUD OF.

Everything is snowballing. Things keep getting worse and worse. I cried for forty minutes in a theatre today, sobbing in the fifth row. My head aches from crying, because I've cried more today than I have since I watched Pearl Harbor in the threate and had to go home and go to sleep because I had tired myself out.

And I keep on crying. It just keeps coming. And then I think I'll be fine, and I think of it again, and it wells up and I have to keep my hands pressed tight over my mouth to keep from keening. It's not just the computer, it's life, and it's injustice and it's unspecialness and it's how I suddenly understand why everyone fears for adolescents. I used to be happy, always, generally, without reason. Now I'm not. And it's even more depressing because I'm not used to it and I remember being happy and I've lost my ability.

If yesterday was bad and today was worse, I literally am petrified about tomorrow.

The light at the end of my tunnel? It's an oncoming train.

Honey, I cannot express how sorry I am. I cannot imagine losing everything, losing all my icons, all my fics, all my pictures. I would be horrified and totally ruined.

But it will get better, I promise, and if it doesn't you can blame me. Which will make you feel better. *huggles Sunny*

I feel for you. No, really, I do. I can't imagine losing all of my writing. I think I'd better go save them in diskettes or something.

*hugs you*

I've lost stories before and I can't imagine losing it all. Hang in there.

*hugs* I'm sorry, Sunny. I've done that before, too, and I know how hard it is to write everything out.

Have a good cry. Sometimes it's the only thing that makes you feel better. *much hugs*

You know, what you need is a good trip to the beach with your best sunkissed friend in her pink convertible, right?

O, that's so awful!! I'm lucky that my stuff is all on my uni network account, so I can't lose it...are you sure it can't be recovered? Try taking the computer to some technical person to see what they can do.

*hugs*
