BACKING UP YOUR FILES

I'm sitting at the coffee shop on a Sunday morning in a leather manhattan chair. My soy latte is cooling on the end table to my left. The Shins are playing in the background as I wave to a friend who just walked in the door. I'm working in PhotoShop, removing a few pieces of lint from the model's black blazer when my mouse freezes. I can't force quit. I can't ctrl+alt+del. I hold down the power button to shut off the machine. I wait 15 seconds and turn it back on. It seems to be booting up just fine. Then, the blue screen of death appears. I'm not too worried. I reboot. Blue screen. I reboot. Blue screen. I'm sweating now.
