I Was blessed with a dead computer @ 8am Christmas Day, with corrupted hard drives. And a real hassle trying to collect all my data I could before I formatted everything and started from scratch. I am finally somewhat back, till I can get home to my major backups, and try to recoup and get my computer life back on track.
Also, I had to work too, 1200 miles away form hom on the holidays is always fun too.
