The incredible stupidity of being me
One really should be more careful where one types rm -rf *, no? In a hurry to head to lunch with coworkers yesterday, I was blowing away a subversion tree, and managed to blow away almost everything in my home directory. This is now the 2nd time in my life I’ve done this (the first was in 1994), which I suppose isn’t bad odds. It was, however, illuminating how out of date my backups were, and how they didn’t necessarily coincide with what I needed to bring the site back up.
Onward.
Add on top of that the fact that I apparantly left my 60GB iPod on the plane coming back from Indianapolis on Thursday, and you have an annoying day. I called the airline, but shocker of shockers, nobody “found it.” Oh well, I suppose it’s a lame excuse to buy a new one.
