The other day, after coming back from Christmas vacation with a great idea about how to physically reorganize my music setup, I accidently knocked over my external HD--it head crashed, and I've lost all of my music files, all of my PG setup and related SW...I only have my finished mp3's.

Not sure if it's a sign that I ought to step away from songwriting and focus on something else for a while...discouraging, but restarting clean, with no project history, no unfinished work to fuss over, might be a blessing in disguise.

I still have some completed work that I haven't posted yet, so I'll probably do some of that while I'm rebuilding.

Makes you aware of how much faith we put in little 1's and 0's that can be washed away in an instant..
