How Can This be?

Okay, I now have our souped up computer upstairs. I have a desk. I have a monitor that is so big that, seriously, I could create an ‘a’ the size of my noggin. I have surround sound and a pile of music. I have a nice mouse. I have a nice wireless keyboard. I have my cup of tea. I have a window. I have my email all set up again. I even have one less thing to procrastinate as my hubby moved all my website files from jeanoram.com over to Dreamweaver for me. (Still haven’t progressed past chapter 2 in the manual though.)

What I don’t have is the desire to edit. I have a two hour window where I can just get to it and what am I doing? I am blogging.

Why? Is it because I don’t have the comfy couch where I am balancing my laptop and a cup of tea while being flanked by two cats? Is it because I am facing a wall? Is it because this chair is hard as cow sh*t left out in the sun to bake and flake?

My New Workspace

Hmm…maybe if I make the font really big and the wireless keyboard and mouse reaches far enough, I can sit on the hide-a-bed and edit. Then it will almost be like old times.

Or maybe I’ll just blare some punk on my surround sound. (Is it sad that my monitor has better resolution than my television and that I have surround sound on my computer?) I never said I wasn’t a geek. For Heaven’s sake, I was emailing before it was even a Windows based application. There is no hope for me…

Maybe there is hope…I just tried to resize the pictures I took of my used to be office–the couch–and my now office and because I am in Vista and everything is different including my photo program, I gave up. Really easily. I’d rather edit than learn yet another new photo program and how to resize pictures YET again. Why the hell does this family always have to buy the latest and greatest tech crap anyway? Why can’t all our computers just be the same already? <Sigh.>
