so the past few days have been interesting and have gone by in a big blur. from waking up at 0230 last friday morning to admit and assist on a ruptured ectopic pregnancy emergency surgery, followed immediately by a scheduled c-section who went into labor a week and a half early to driving home to downingtown that night than up to erie with a quick stop in state college to move and back sunday, and yesterday having my hard drive completely poop out on me, fail, and spend several hours in the KOP mall apple store trying to get it all worked out. i made out of of the mall with only purchasing 2 pairs of jeans from express for a total of 39$ - consider this a win. especially since i was there for almost 4 hours.
long story short-below is my old hard drive with the 2 metal things that look like staples which had detached themselves from somewhere and where floating around on the inside. the apple guy come out rattling it and later with a picture he'd taken since he'd never seen that happen before...awesome.
after several hours of failed attempts to restore my hard drive from my external i finally called apple again and the very nice man on the phone told me that the instructions i was given to restore were wrong from the very nice guy at the store. we'll see how long my patience holds out with all of this, i must say i'm handling this with much more composure than i'd have thought. i'll hopefully still think that they were both 'very nice men' after all is said and done. thank god keith got me an external for christmas and i've been pretty good about using it to back up. and it's a small miracle that this didn't happen on may 18, what would have been 11 days before my boards when it was doing the same thing it did before it died but magically decided to keep working.
more updates on everything soon. just a few more days til the 4th of july and next monday i start a new rotation, peds :)
