So, today has been a frustrating one, and I’m in a pretty testy mood right now.
Want to know what’s on my mind?
OK…
1) I HATE Internet Explorer. All versions. Hate it.
IE is a developer’s nightmare. It’s very quirky, and often won’t recognize what you want to do. For example, my new blog site (http://EasyBlogTricks.com). I have embedded some Camtasia videos into the blog, and they work perfectly on Firefox. No problem!
But when people try to view them in Internet Explorer, nada.
And I have a flaw. Yes, I admit it… a flaw. OK, well, maybe more than one, but this is tech related.
I always forget to check and see how my stuff looks in IE because I figure people should all be using Firefox, anyway.
Kidding.
People have their druthers. I really went kicking and screaming into Firefox from IE, and now, I realize how narrow-sighted I had been. But, people have their faves, and I know that TONS of people still use IE.
So, I’m trying to find a fix for this issue. I’m not much of a programmer. That’s the problem. I mean, if there’s PHP around, I can manipulate it, but writing? No clue. So… that leaves me at the mercy of Google, and trying to find a fix online. So far, bupkiss. I do have PHP for Dummies, so I think I might learn one day–at the Dummy level, anyway. Ha!
2) Power Going Off and On
I’ve had to reboot my computer 7 times this afternoon. Yes, 7! Servers me right for not having an APS, so I’m supposing I need to go out and purchase one tomorrow.
3) Windows Vista
Who does it think it is? I mean, it’s always telling me what I can and can’t do, and I’m sick of it. I turned it off. Stop trying to mother me, Vista. I’m a big girl and I know what and what not to do, really.
OK… I’m finished. I will return you to your regularly scheduled chat with Pat.
Whew! Feels better to get THAT off my chest.
If you have any pet peeves, anything that’s totally pissing you off today, here’s the place to let me know what that is!
Remember, misery loves company.
And I’m not really miserable, just hacked. LOL And totally glad it’s Friday.
Have a great weekend, everyone!
