horrifying discovery
Feb. 7th, 2006 12:13 pmI just found out-- the hard way-- that Word was not saving backup copies of my writing. WTF? I never heard of a modern word processing program that didn't just automatically do that. I thought the only question was, does it automatically save afer 5 minutes or 10? After losing everything I'd done on a research paper (about 1/4 done) I found the settings under preferences and fixed them.
Color me irritated. And discouraged. Trying to re-create what was going swimmingly well is not so easy.

Now I must go check my Word settings because, damn, there are some times that I would sob like a baby with a skinned knee if that happened to me.
