Waaah!
I just lost 45 minutes of podfic recording. Unedited, fortunately, or else it would be OMFGWWAAAAAAHHHHH! as opposed to the grumpy lowercase.
As I was saving the session in Audacity, it errored out because my HD was full. I cleared some space and saved again. It seemed fine. The save icon was greyed out; I took this as a positive sign. I just opened it up to edit, though - and it's blank. One long horizontal, blip-less line where the audio should be. I've looked in the temp folder, where there are eleven twelve second files and a six second file. The folder I thought it was saved to is empty (although it did save the name of the folder, fuck-you-very-much).
Is it gone forever, oh Audacity experts?
In other news, I have a date tomorrow night. It's my first date in ages, after a long string of losers put me off dates, and then a night of cringeworthily bad sex put me off men entirely. My mother asked me last weekend when I was going to start spawning to fulfil her latent grandmotherly desires. So, date.
