Therapy Session With My Computer
Since the gentleman that was going to fix my dyfunctional hard drive didn't want to get the plague, I wasn't able to get any professional help for this baby. As usual, I thought I'd handle it myself.
It didn't go very well.
ME: "So, what's the problem? I'm writing a unique story about Big Foot with a little romance thrown in and you eat 20,000 words.
COMPUTER: "Listen, I did you a favor. That book sucks. You'll never sell it."
ME: "Whatever. That doesn't explain eating SOME of it and not ALL of it. Perhaps you have an "oral" fixation that goes back to your creation?"
COMPUTER: "Don't try that human mumbo jumbo on me. The fact is that you were pounding your head on my keyboard. I had to get back at you somehow. AND I would have eaten all of it, but just the little bit I ate corrupted my disc drive."
ME: "Now hold on a minute. THAT was corrupted long before you ate those precious words. You can't blame my book for that."
COMPUTER: "How about this. You quit giving me some sort of personality and I'll stop torturing you. I'm a MACHINE, dorkbutt. That means that I got a virus, started eating your file and then you cleaned it with a virus cleaner. There's no mystery here. Jeez. Good thing you write fiction.
ME: Well, our time is up. Thanks for coming in. As Lucy Van Pelt would say "That'll be five cents please."
COMPUTER: Muhawhawhawhaw!! Five Cents? Honey, wait until you see the professional's bill.
Yeah, my computer really calls me a dorkbutt.
Okay, no more distracting myself with the lovely Blogger. Back to work.
