Hide the fonts folder from her.

I actually got into spring cleaning and decided to takle my hideously oversized and largely useless drop box folder and in organizing I moved it inadvertantly into another folder.

After the heart palpatations began I managed to think straight enough to set Spotlight on it and tracked down the errant folder. To say I was relived was an understatement.

Did I mention I was working across the network from the laptop so when you "send to trash" another machine's files it's REALLY gone. Like yesterday gone. Yeah. Honest, blood curdling panic is good for you. I was also half asleep at the time, so after that it took a while to calm back down. I mean, my font folder is like 1 gig or something. It's a career's worth of hoarding there. It's like my baby.

Before anyone yells at me - Yes, I have it backed up on DVD. (I actualy have a copy in the laptop so I dont have to store those files there) I still wasn't 100% sure it was a new enough backup to cover any more recent additions I might have made, and besides - I thought I was smarter than that. Guess not. 

But, in all that looking around I realized what awful shape my files are right now, just a load of crap I haven't organized that well as of late, so I need to spend an entire day really smashing it into shape. I don't have trouble finding stuff, but seeing it now makes me nuts to think about. I've always been such a stickler for file organization and I got lazy.

Anyway, I need to go lay back down… whew.
