Computer Issues
I've been having quite a few difficulties lately, but nothing very bad.
I got a new mouse for my laptop and the scroll wheel died.
Meanwhile I was installing the Windows 8 Beta over my laptop, causing me to lose everything on my laptop. This was completely expected, however, hence why I backed everything up on my external hard drive (HD).
To add insult to injury, as I was going to my father's house to get a copy of the Windows 7 installation ISO file on my external HD, it died, causing me to lose ALL of my files and music. That happened while at my father's house, so he gave me Windows 7 on a DVD instead.
Fuck. Over 400GB of music and files - gone. Fuck Fuck.
That caused me to go into a mild depression last night.
Then to add insult to injury as I was playing around with Windows 8 I did the updates and it ended up in a BSOD Boot Loop. It automatically tried to repair itself but was unable to. It was a good thing I had a DVD with windows 7 on it, so I was able to reinstall Windows 7. I wanted to do that anyway. I just wish I didn't lose my files in the process.
Today I had an appointment with my therapist and she decided to focus on that I seem to define myself by my issues. Its easy for me to list off all the 'problems' that I have, but not easy for me to list off all my other traits. She gave me some homework to do. I am to make two lists. The first list is all the 'issues' that do NOT define me (ex. Bipolar Disorder, Addict, Histrionic). The second list is of all of my traits. What makes me who I am (ex. A daughter, loving, funny). This will be an interesting homework assignment for me to complete.
