I’m at the liberry. Using the high speed internet. Woman across from me right now is older...obviously not accustomed to using the computer. She pounds away at the keyboard like it’s an old manual typewriter. She clicks the mouse by slamming her index finger down on the button as hard as she can...like it takes a great deal of force to get the thing to click. Ocassionally she will pick the whole mouse up and slam it down onto the desk. I don’t know why she does that.
It’s all very loud.
I’m just sitting here cracking up watching her.
Have you checked flickr.com lately?
Heh...sounds like any number of the older faculty members at the college. It was always interesting trying to help ‘em with computers...especially the mouse. They’d try sooo desperately hard to aim it at the right spot and then whack it so hard that they moved it as they clicked so it didn’t do at *all* what they wanted it to do.
Poor dears...
Heh...I was gonna tell you...when I got in my car to drive to work today, my odometer said 4242.
I half expected something truly strange to happen today at work.
Hey girl! I was thinking about you last night! Hope you’re doing well!
