It's amazing how much time I can waste. I have been trying to change my Facebook profile picture all day. Friggin-A. How long should that take a normal human being?!? I am the most tech unsavy person I know. Seriously, I should have my own personal nerd to follow me around just so I don't mess up the computer. Chip specifically told me when we got our new computer to save all of the pictures onto the external hard drive. Do you think I could do that? No, I could not. The drive was off and for some odd reason when it is turned off it doesn't give itself as an option for a place to save. I swear, I can never do anything the right way. If try really really hard I can do it but as soon as I let my guard down or do something too quickly, I mess up. I have to check and recheck everything so many times, it is ridiculous. So, I saved my stupid pictures onto the stupid hard drive of the stupid computer which in any other universe would be no big deal, right? But in mine it's going to be a hassle. If I knew what I was doing, I would just move them and everything would be peachy but I would probably delete some vital information so I'm just going to leave them there and hope that today is a 'Andrea screwed up again but it's not a big deal' day. Anyway, my day has been spent in front of the computer again and not on anything productive. Unless my profile picture can somehow make me some money or clean up my house! Oh well, at least the sun is finally shining. I'm going to try to enjoy it for a little while and hopefully get something done.
We all knew that wasn't going to happen, didn't we? The kids all scattered after school so I decided to go for a walk. I went down the hill toward the creek like I always do and as I turned the corner I screamed and backed up almost into the street. Why? Because I came disturbingly close to stepping on a dead raccoon. Which is really quite unremarkable seeing that it is a highway and I'm sure that kind of thing happens all of the time. The remarkable thing is that this is the fifth day in a row that I have gone on a walk and the fifth day in a row I have seen the poor little thing and screamed my head off. What the hell? If anyone sees me they must just laugh their asses off. How can I consistently forget it is there? Seriously, it's not like he keeps popping out of a new place every time. He is always in the same place and I am always freaked out. Do you think I might have a few issues? When I got home I saw a leaf. I knew it was a leaf but as I got closer I wasn't so sure. Suddenly the wind blew it and I jumped back convinced it was a mouse. It was still just a leaf. I went out back to rake out my gardens which also freaks me out because I'm convinced I'm going to be the mean person who rakes up some baby bunnies or equally adorable creatures. I heard a loud crack and looked down at my rake. It looked okay so I kept going. A few minutes later another crack. This time I could tell it was kind of off, but I kept raking. Needless to say, my rake didn't make it. I figured I had another in the shed so I just went and got that one. I started raking and after about three pulls the rake part just fell off of the stick. I took this as a sign to stop raking. At least the baby bunnies are safe for another day cause big mean rake lady is gone. I wonder if a bunny could loosen a screw?
