I somehow injured my left shoulder 2 days ago...no idea how I did it. The doctor thinks it's my rotator cuff, and I go to the orthopedist on June 2nd. If I tore something, I'll have to have surgery. I get to go to physical therapy for that and my back now...fun!

I lasted at a new delivery job for one night last night--the set-up was just weird and the boss was a bitch. I'll just keep delivering at my old place until we leave for the East Coast...which is 4 weeks from today.

Goddamn stupid software.
I got my digital camera, what? 2 years ago?
I was always able to watch the videos I made on it immediately on my old NHS pc and the old pc in the shop I worked in.

So now, 2 years later I have a Dell laptop.
Built for me less than a month ago.

So why do I have to arse about with downloads?
And why am I getting two messages at once and completely unable to work out which is valid? All I want to do is upload my damn video to YouTube like I have for years.

Sorry to bring this up when you are pissed, but if you are too lazy to get free software, and then complain about the life-enhancing technology that is free..well.....jeeez!

How much easier can the world get for people? Sorry. I'm kind of annoyed with the universe today... Don't take me srsly.


Maybe I'm getting bitchy. People are pissing me off. My guests last night were assholes and taped it on top of that, then saved it to my fucking desk-top. Thanks buh-bye.They should just go back to London...

I'm not too lazy to get free software.
I just don't know where to get it, what to look for, why I need it.

It was all done for me on my old computers.
Now I am being asked to download things that don't download, being asked to open things in operations I don't understand, being given options that don't match the tried and tested ones I'm used to.

I know, I'm at fault because I'm ignorant.
But when new technology makes something harder for me it makes me unhappy.

Now, if anyone is willing to offer me a step by step guide to getting a video from my digital camera onto my laptop I will sing them hosannas every day. Promise.

Hey, get in chat and I'll try to help from here. It's really easy, but hard the first couple of times. I need to find out what error messages you are getting. The info. on your actual camera etc.....too many questions about it to help yet..

I may take you up on it at some point, but it's the end of a long hot day for me now and if I come into chat it will just be to chat.

I get frustrated when I can't see a logical path.
It makes me swear.

Genuinely, thanks for the offer.

I just found out there's some evidence that, as a DES daughter (my mom took this drug when she was pregnant with me), I'm more than twice as much at risk for breast cancer.

Better get that mammogram I've been putting off.

I went to a funeral this morning. Aside from the fact that it was about someone dying, it was a catholic mass, so it was a long funeral with lots of weepy people.

I don't know about anyone else, but when I go to a funeral, it always makes me think of someone close to me that's passed on. For me today it was my Mum, but I had to try and be stoic for the sake of the people I went there to support, so I did much deep breathing and looking out the window trying to dissassociate myself from the actual proceedings.

Now I suppose the catholics probably think I should feel guilty about that. I guess they'll get over it though.

I got distracted and tried to pick up a plate that had just come out of the oven. Stupid stupid stupid. Now, four hours later, my fingertips and thumb still bring me to tears if I let go of the ice pack for more than a few seconds. It will be very hard to sleep tonight if I have to keep getting up to trade out for a fresh ice pack from the freezer.

I don't even know where to buy that, but wherever it is, I bet they're not open at midnight...
