A restart prompt popped up as I was working on my game. For whatever reason, it decided to assign itself as the dominant window and appeared at the exact moment I hit enter to move to a new line. The computer restarted without giving me an opportunity to cancel and I lost several hours of work. Needless to say, I feel like breaking something and/or passing out in sadness.

Always save every time you do anything and to a separate place every hour. Learned that early on. It's hard to stick to but it's important to.
