I love my life
I love my life. It's computers I hate. Sure, I work in computers, but yet I can't even get my home PC to work correctly. I mean, seriously. That's the reason that I haven't posted out here in weeks. I'm sitting here, yet again reloading Windows '98 on my home PC for the 28 bajillionth time, and it's still not working.
Apparently, I thought I knew computers better than I know how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Well, turns out I forgot the cardinal rule about computers. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES go all willy-nilly deleting files. I just passed my MicroSoft XP exam (with a very high score if I may be so braggart) so I thought I knew my way around this technological maze. Well, like a mouse in search of cheese, I started my seek and destroy crusade to delete files that looked suspicious. Turns out, that was a pretty stupid plan. I clearly deleted something important, and now my PC won't boot. Not at all. It's pretty much worthless. My fifteen cent polyester pants are worth more right now.
Which is why I run. I hate computers. I hate technology. If it were up to me, we'd all live in log cabins, making sm'ores at our fireplaces. We'd have to rely on the earth for our food, not the local Wal-Mart supercenter. (Which by the way, I visited recently. Wal-Mart is a complete mystery to me. I'll get into that later.) I run to get back to nature, and to escape this "paradise" of concrete and steel that we've created. We go to our desks and sit in front of a computer all day, only to come home and sit in front of one all evening long to check our e-mail and see our favorite sports highlights.
Doesn't make sense to me. Paradise to me is running in the middle of nowhere, not knowing where you're going or when you'll finish. Some of the best running is when you just head out for a "mystery run". In the middle of nowhere, you can truly escape the madness of technology. Well, that is, if you can leave your MP3 player at home. I know, I can't either. So yes, I hate technology and have to embrace it at the same time. Argh.
So while my computer sits idly in the corner, in the meantime, I'll stick to running and perfecting my peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
