Aw, son of a BITCH.

I’ve been working with this clean install on my work computer, and I’ve run into a problem.

Ordinarily, it is a great experience to clean install an OS, because you get to start fresh and build again from the ground up without your system being bogged down. Ok, I realize that maybe this doesn’t sound as exciting as I’m making it out to be, but when you can feel the difference in speed with a fresh OS, the headache of re-installing is definitely worth it. And that, to me, is exciting. Very few people around me have to terms with the fact that this is just a process you sometimes just have to do every once in a while with a PC. I have yet to experience this with an Apple, but we’ll see once I’ve owned mine for a year or so.

Well, back to the clean install, I have recently gotten to the point of brain fatigue in keeping track of what things are where, and after watching a straight 8 hours of progress bars you tend to get lazy / haphazard. Or at least I do. And it gets the best of me.

I own a pocket PC that has Windows Mobile – I think that the phone itself is great, but I could do with a better interface. Especially after envying the iPhone for a little while.

Well, one thing you have to remember about these Blackberry-esque phones is how to sync them to computers. And I’ve just totally SCREWED myself because I disassociated it with its original sync target.

Long story short, I’ve lost my phone numbers. All of them. Shit.
