Translation: "#!~*$*@!%~*#@#!!!!!!!"
I'd written over 5,000 words for my NaNoWriMo story since Wednesday night, yet thanks to my own stupidity and an odd quirk in Windows XP's "Save to disk/Open With" feature, none of it was actually ever permanently saved, even though I hit the save button rather frequently.
I'm rather annoyed right now.

Here's to hoping my Assclown Wednesdays aren't an outright circus so I can sneak in a few thousand words this afternoon myself.
