Frustration (Gabrielle)
April 27, 2009 by sharppointythings
I was very excited earlier today. My sister had sent me a picture that sparked a story thought in my head. I got the first few sentences and had a beginning so I quickly sat down and started typing it out. Yes, yes, I thought, And where does it go from there? Ah, I answered myself, Perhaps it goes there. I was plotting and planning. I was contemplating symbolism and what I wanted things to mean. I was trying to craft poetry in my head and set it down in such a way that it would move and breathe and that it would touch people.
But then Justice came to me and said he’d wet himself during his impromptu nap and as I went with him to the bathroom I discovered he’d wet the couch, too. By the time I got back to my computer all inspiration was gone which was okay because my battery had run out in the interim and my computer had shut down.
It may not help much, but allow me to offer you a sympathetic pat on the back.
so, dumb question here but have you looked to see if there is a recovery program file. xp and vista both save work before shutting down but where they save them can be as non intuitive as a computer programmer, ug..hope you find it, and if you can’t, know that God used the words wile you had them; “My word will not retern void”
