Flying fuck-monster of fucking fuck!

MY FINAL PAPER FOR PUBLIC POLICY CANNIBALIZED ITSELF!!!

One moment I had a 16-page research paper. Then POOF, it was gone. Just fucking gone. All I have left is the version I emailed to myself from work, which is 4 pages shorter than it needs to be, worded somewhat differently, organized in an almost entirely different way, and missing the goddamn works cited page. Oh, and I have an even earlier and even more useless version saved on my desktop.

I don't have time for this shit. I almost don't care. It's worth 25% of our grade but I've had straight A's so far, so.... a C isn't that bad.... But Anne was nice and gave me until "whenever" tomorrow to turn it in... so I might as well finish the goddamn thing---AGAIN!---and turn it in.

*cries*

O.O

When you say "Gone," do you mean that the file has disappeared, or that it vanished before your eyes in the word processor?

Disappeared. I was working on it. I thought I saved it... I save pretty habitually and I was working on the thing for 3-4 hours this afternoon, so it should have been saved at LEAST once. I emailed what I thought was the paper to myself and printed it off on Rob's machine, only when it printed out, it was several pages too short and quite obviously a different, earlier version of the document. I can't for the life of me find the version I completed; I checked temporary files, recent, and did a my computer search. Nothing. It's gone.
