10.8.2 Retina 13" Crashing

My macbook is crashing more and more often. It just freezes and loops tiny glitch of audio (tick, tick, tick, tick)... you know the drill.


I've noticed it does not depend on certain software to crash, or any particular user error or action. I have no added running "system" software or bloatware either, just applications.


Log report, first warning before reboot is:


16/01/13 10:57:55.755 PM com.apple.dock.extra[189]: [Warning] Caught exception: *** -[__NSPlaceholderDictionary initWithObjects:forKeys:count:]: attempt to insert nil object from objects[2] name: NSInvalidArgumentException reason: *** -[__NSPlaceholderDictionary initWithObjects:forKeys:count:]: attempt to insert nil object from objects[2] userInfo: (null) in function: -[IMChat _postNotification:userInfo:]


Followed by a huge string of WARNINGS, which I'll post just the first few here:

Any tips? Am starting to worry my new retina laptop is very quickly going to start to detriorate if I keep hard rebooting it all the time.


Cheers.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
