WTF! I Totally Deleted My Documents Folder!
Boy do I suck. On Friday I was cleaning out space on my external hard drive and on my iBook and I accidentally totally deleted all the contents of my main Documents folder on my iBook.
Of course I have an administrator account on my Mac OSX so I had full permission to wipe it all out. I lost a lot of files and that totally sucks but luckily it is not devastating since I had an old backup and I kept data in other places. My iTunes music, programs, and iPhoto pictures, and digital movies are fine. I have a back up of my VoodooPad data on my iPod and I have an old backup of my computer from TWO YEARS AGO on another external HD.
It is a bit weird now that it feels like I have a totally new computer again now that I accidentally burned down all the files in my digital house. Let that be a lesson to you. Be super careful when cleaning out files and keep your backups up to date.
