n.
Let me tell you a story about that n. So I just wrote a VERY longish post about the 3 day weekend and its effects on my procrastination habits... until I was going to highlight a passage to delete when for some strange and infuriating reason, my entire blog was selected and as I reached for my mouse to un-highlight the whole thing, I accidently hit the stupid "n" key and now all I have left is an n. I have now also discovered that there is no "undo" with this blog. I can't edit, undo, or ctrl-Z if you want the shortcut. Thank you, technology. I am currently resisting the urge to scream and fervently pound the keyboard so instead I'll channel my energy to writing this blog. I think that I probably wouldn't be so angry except that I am in desperate need of writing more blogs. Finding out that tomorrow is F day, and that I have only written 1 blog for the cycle= very stressed out me. So PART OF WHAT I WAS SAYING IN MY BLOG BEFORE IT GOT ERASED was that 3 day weekends are bad for me. This particular weekend, I got absolutely nothing done. Acutally, "nothing" is all relative, but in an academical context I got nothing done. Oh my gosh, I said this much more smoothly and better in my OLD blog and now it's getting me even more pissed off. I think this was a bad idea, so I'll start writing about something else. Like this situation. Deleting a large passage without saving tends to happen to me a lot more than I think it should. I don't know what it is. Maybe I'm clumsy and I hit random keys while passages are highlighted much too often. And now I shall curse my fat ponderous fingers though I have to say that they're not all that slow when I type. They aren't very accurate though. Maybe I should save every 5 words. Maybe I'm just incredibly unlucky. I remember this happening to me before in a paper and then I was going to write it from the point of view of my keyboard because it experienced some nasty abuse as I was quite enraged. But then I decided not to since it would make me look like a very bad-tempered, violent asian girl. And now it's too late. So approxmiately 25 minutes, and one NEW blog later (I could've had 2 blogs by now) I have still accomplished nothing. Except maybe releasing my anger without taking it out on the poor keyboard. Oh Em Gee.
