Not to the extent you're describing but sure I've had many a time where I couldn't be bothered doing an image, I've often opened it all up, started doing something and then said "stuff it, I can't be arsed with this" and gone away for weeks without doing anything, but then I always come back..

I fried my HD some time back, I alwys have multiple backups now so what took me weeks to put back before, only takes hours now if it happens again..

Injustice will be avenged.
