This is truly a Monday. If Murphy ever didn’t need any help to screw things up it was today. I managed all on my own to have deleted the database backup for Blog, not only the backup, but the backup to the backup.

Google Chrome decided to hiccup and make up it’s own cute favicons for the blog. After making sure it had not been some type of hacking, I was in the process of restoring the whole thing from a known backup. You guessed it, recent backup but missing the recent database. Only one I could find is two months old.

Checked on the laptop thinking surely I had taken a moment at some point in time to make a copy of the backup on another machine or the Passport. Nope as luck would have it, I exceeded my quota for dumbness in the last few months. I did manage to save this much, but a few posts from the start of the year are gone.

You can bet this old boy has a new backup and archival procedure in place starting this afternoon. If I had the time I would beat myself, however I can be thankful that it was not my main computer that had crashed. At least I keep a backup of it in two places on different machines just in case.

My extreme apology to anyone who’s comments I lost.

Enough of the pity me time, I have work to do!
