I know, I'm not actually as broken up about it as I make it sound sometimes. It was a mistake, and it could "technically" cost me 10 grand, so it's a nice number to remember when I think about the time I'm spending setting up and testing my backups. (And it's a fantastic story to tell others which can often get them to start using a backup system)

In the end, it may end up being net positive in my life when I save something huge later.
