Waste of Time
Sometimes I will spend hours solving one little problem. Last night I spent four or five hours trying to figure out why a text-editing program I have would not display certain characters.
I’ve used this program for a couple of years and never cared before but now it works right. It felt good to solve the problem.
This morning I wasted a couple of hours trying to move an icon on this web page. When I realized I was wasting time again I gave up – for now.
And with no eyes I can spend an hour trying to figure out what I am doing on the screen. Many times I get completely lost so I have to log off/on to reset things.
A pain in the ass but more fun then sitting around listening to the stupid TV or radio.
