Just when things were going quite well (I just hit page 100), this girl (picture attached), on a nearby computer in the library, suddenly decides to entertain me to no end, therefore taking attention away from the script.
As often usual, my eyes wander around the room, while I take a brief writing break. And there she is...trying to copy a google image, of some woman, into her word document. Why is this so entertaining to me? Well, the mouse acrobatics she tried, getting the picture from her Internet Explorer Window into her Word Document, were quite hilarious. Only topped by the fact that it simply didn't work.
Then she resorted to double clicking the picture. Actually HAMMERING the poor picture with frustrated double clicks. Click, click, clickidiclicklclick,... zippydi-nothing.
Now it's time to reconsider her strategy. She lays her thinking-finger onto her chin and analyzes the issue at hand...hmmmmm...., then suddenly, it comes to her: A right click. Copy. Paste. YES!!! That worked!! Genius! But wait... the picture is way too small. Ahhhhhh, yes... let's resize it.... drag the left side to make it bigger...hold on... now what? The face is all distorted. What happened? Oh nooooooo...
Time for that thinking-finger once again. Come on.... what to do... what to do.... ahhhhhhh yes... let's try to undo that last action. Press...hmm let's see...yes...delete. OH NO!!! The pictures is gone...
See what I mean? Why would she do this to me? Why would she entertain me like this? She doesn't even know me. All I want is to write my script in peace and quiet. Is that too much to ask for?

You talked about your blog so much, i had to check it out. Hmm, maybe I should get me one of these... if I weren't afraid my nerd scale rating would go up.
