Ok, its 5:30 in the morning here and I just got done taking a power nap for an all nighter. I have been correcting my paper that is due today all night from like 8 till now with some statistics studying mixed in there as well. I goto my computer to transfer my file over to my usb drive to print off in the library computer lab only to find my file has magically reverted to an older version. I dont qute know how this happend but apparently my almost finished paper is now back to rough draft form. The teacher is a grammer crazy so this rough draft wont even come close to being ok. So now I dont know what to do? I goto a small college and its a small class..Should I plead my case to the teacher and try and get the rest of the day to fix it up? Should I just turn in what I have? I also have a stat test today that I need to look over for.

Yes I procrastinated but this has nothing to do with it other then that stat test. I got my paper done ontime ..i could have finished it a week ago and decided to print it today and have the same thing happen to me.

Anyway..what should I do?

Drink. And take more computer classes, so you know how to backup your work.

I was forced to work on Apple computers when I was a Finance guy at Motorola... those rigs taught me to save over and over while renaming the files in case all went to hell.

I feel for you, dude. Now you will back up any file you spend more than 20 minutes on. This is how we learn unfortunately.
