backupvow

The annual vow to back up the photoabyss, taken each time a phone is dropped.
The backupvow is sworn most sincerely on the kitchen floor, holding a phone face-down. A hard drive is priced, a cloud plan is compared, and the vow is filed with the greenhousedream. Phones survive; the vow persists; the abyss deepens by another year of magnificent neglect.
Etym. — backup + vow — the promise made to one's own data, annually.
Rel. — gearloft
