my "a" story...

some of you already know, but here is my sad tale...a few months back my "a" button on my keypad started to get a bit dodgy and you had to press a bit harder to make it work...well...now its totally broken off, no fixies, boo hoo....do you have any idea how many words have "a" in them??? LOTS...so now when ever i have to write a i have to copy and paste it...so very annoying and very tricky when you type somuch...grrrrr...
so , please really appreciate when i write a little hello on your blog, coz seriously, i am really ready to throw this darn computer out the window...it keeps shutting down on me as well....i was just finishing off a post with an award, you know all the copying and pasting that requires...onto the last one in fact and...yes...it shut down...grrrr
so...i have had my whinge...
thanks for letting me vent, it helps...lol...
let me leave you with this link...
its one of my fav blogs to get happy on...
no comps or anything, they wouldn't even know i am doing this...lol...
