According to my laptop, it's been 57 days... I get a daily pop up to remind me that I'm being an idiot.

My backup drive is currently sitting on a desk blocked by the contents of 3 closets that I had to empty, as my building is replacing pretty vital pipes that are part of the HVAC system and the piper run behind those closets.

I know I should wade my way to the drive before something happens, but.......... argh.

Here's what makes it even worse: I too had an SSD failure, and it was this year around March...
