yay! even though my 45 gig hard drive is busting up, and i ordered a new 60 gig drive, the 45 gig drive is still under warranty! glee! ^_^ so, when norton utilities gets here i’ll see if i can go and recover any files (since the drive isn’t even showing up at all ^^;), and if i can’t then i’ll be able to mail it back to maxtor to get a new drive back! 60 + 45 = 105 gigs of goodness! ^__^

now, off to go to the store to pick up some insoles for my shoes before i go off to work! *rubs his poor feet… sniffle*
