relaxing weekend slightly bumpy due to /dev/hda1

I think my hard drive is failing, but what do I know about these things. Three times in the past twelve hours I've found my computer all locked up, or everything seg faulting, or a kernel panic.
I switched over to a console as it was going down one time, I typed "df", and it said something about ext3 fs errors on /dev/hda1. That's the master drive. Oh, master!
Should I just assume it's the hard drive? Dunno. I could pick up a new one tomorrow, but I hate to part with $80 right now.
Strangely, I've never had a hard drive just up and fail since 1996. I've always sworn by Western Digitals. I've made my backups.
In other news today, I bathed the dog and wished my sweet BF a happy 20th anniversary.
