I was sitting here wondering what to write about today, when I hear strange noises coming from my hubby’s office. Wouldn’t you know the one who made comments about my time spent on the computer was actually having a very loud discussion with his computer.
When I received a new laptop for Christmas, he was given my old laptop to play with and get acquainted with before moving to a larger and faster computer. Well, imagine my surprise when I hear him fighting with a program that won’t load quick enough. He is not very computer savvy and is always asking me a ton of questions, which I truly don’t mind, but he doesn’t listen.
So needless to say, he has managed to crash the computer several times and I have had to figure out what on earth he did to cause the frozen page. This experience has helped me increase my knowledge of computers and has also kept my patience in check.
His latest venture is his attempt to download music for his MP3 player. Imagine that, the one who joked about my electronic gadgets now has a laptop, cellphone and MP3 player. Never mock the things you may become. His has spent many hours trying to learn on his own and I give him a lot of credit for that but when he has caused some problem, he expects me to fix it ASAP. Hello?? I am a Nerd, but a book and writing Nerd not a tech Nerd, although I am learning that part of it as well.
So, as I hear his moaning and groaning from another room, I have to giggle, because my once hubby who claimed he would not go to the tech side is now full force engulfed in it. Amazing how the power of persuasion works.
The Chronicles continue….
