The bad news: I'm down for the week.

The good news: If my computer can be fixed / diagnosed, I should know before the week is over. Maybe even today.

The most likely bad news: I will need a new computer because solid state drives, when they fail, are pretty much welded to the internal architecture of Macbooks. 

So... I would ask you all to please hang with me and be patient. I'm already trying to get ahead on sketches offline (I still have my scanner and several pieces of paper) so  I'll be in a somewhat okay position to produce some work when I get back and running (things like bonus pics for Sashae, a momentous 10 year "anniversary" pic, etc.) Motivation is a little hard to come by by when you have to wait, and I've never been good at waiting.

So, hopefully not much longer. If the place isn't too busy, I could know today if there's something they can do.

PS: Added unease of handing over a literal cringe machine to someone, where you have to decide, "Do I tell them please not to look," or just assume they're going to look at all the stuff on there? Ugh.

Hopefully we stay on the good news side of things!

So sorry to hear this, G. I've been there and know how much it absolutely sucks. Hopefully most everything was backed up (sorry about yesterday's work) and you haven't lost more than functionality. Thanks for the updates so we know what to expect and when, and in the meantime, take care of yourself.

As near as I can tell, all my backups / time machine has been working properly. I lost about a day's work and only some sketches (which I probably will do better on with a second pass). I just hate being behind. Thank you for your comment, Drew.

I agree. And it is -we-; you guys support me to do arts, not ... computer maintenance.

Sorry to hear you gotta deal with this! Good luck on a not too expensive resolution.

Good luck.
