I just about gave myself a heart attack thinking that I had overwritten my second novel draft with my first draft. (How did that HAPPEN?)
And it unleashed a whole torrent of stress that (a) I didn't have even an inch of wiggle room in my budget for data recovery and (b) it wasn't worth the recovery anyway, which I know I shouldn't say, but it's likely to come into my mind when I have enough things to stress over.
Universe, you can stop being mean to me any time now.
Yes, I just made backups.
