Post-crash

Not a car crash, but a laptop crash. I thought I'd lost this blog, but when I typed "blogspot.com" into my browser, this came up. Odd, because nothing else from my old computer or browser has been transferred. Nothing at all. I am still trying and hoping (it's fading) that I can retrieve some of my files, if not all. And I've lost applications, too. Very, very frustrating. 
I've signed up for online storage. I am pretty sure I had some online storage before, but no idea how to retrieve it. I think this because on the old laptop I used to periodically get a message stating that I'd used up my online storage. I ignored it. 
Now I've bought the Geek Squad black tie coverage for this new laptop (hindsight, you know?) and bought online storage from Comcast. 
Scary. All those files that seemed so safe because I'd stored them on my laptop were just phantoms. I never printed out most of the pictures, and even though they were stored on Picasa, it was only on my desktop, not online. And don't get me started about iTunes. I lost that library, too. Argh
