I was going to write a blog posting today…
..but there was a cat on my computer!




#16 – Dear My Computer
Dear My Computer,
Now is not the time to do the thing you like do where your clock, out of nowhere, starts running very, very, very slowly (for example, as I type this is it 1:11 p.m. and my computer says it is 12:57, depsite the fact that I *just* told it to sync up with the “Internet time server” about 15 minutes ago). You like to do this to me periodically and then I end up late for stuff because I rely on that little clock in the bottom right hand corner of my screen and when I finally check my watch, I discover that it’s actually 45 minutes later than I think it is. But you only do this periodically, so it’s not like I can just assume your clock is wrong, because sometimes it is right.
But now is not the time. I’m trying to publish a blog posting every half hour and you are making it very hard to do sice it takes you 87 minutes to move a 1/2 hr. So stop it. Just stop it.
kthxbai.
Notes:
- I need a Mac.
- I probalby shouldn’t have named my computer “Madam Pychosis“
Read about the charity that I’m supporting, Options for Sexual Health!
