mainepaperpusher Goes Rogue

First off, an apology for being out of pocket this past week…or two! It’s been a little challenging here in my head, and my other body parts weren’t playing nice, either! Seizures, migraines and bronchitis… ok, it’s here where I REALLY want to say Oh My! You know, like the Lions and Tigers and Bears thing. But I’ll refrain, knowing full well that it’s now in your head but you can’t blame me for actually ‘saying’ it.

In addition to the aforementioned ailments in the part of the first part and…aw geez, now I’ve gone into legalese. I tell ya, I’m not quite right! Let’s start again, shall we? In addition to the crap I listed up there ⬆️ my Macbook died. Ok, I’m not sure it’s really dead. I mean it might just be tired and need a little coffee or…juice. One thing is for certain, it’s NOT getting juice right now. It refuses to charge. Truth be told, that Macbook doesn’t owe me a thing. It’s been dropped, and otherwise abused more than I can tell you. The Danes regularly nose it off the couch onto the floor just for the fun of it. Yeah, Danes are like that…

So, I’m sitting here staring at an ancient iPad. This iPad is so old I had to change the language to English from Cyrillic. It’s so old that…wasn’t there a comedian who did that schtick? Like WAY before I was born. Stop laughing! You will have to picture me with my fingers all scrunched up trying to type on this keyboard that is the size of the original (maybe Mach II) iPad. My fingers are not happy. My fingers are fat and ill-equipped for this, but I am long past due in coming in and checking out the WP scene. I am so bad that I haven’t even answered a comment in a very long time. I see I’ve missed some VERY cool posts that mentioned dragons and you know how much I love that, er those, er you know what I mean!!!

Just a side note here…did you know that you can’t start a WP title with a lower case letter? This is insane! I had to hack it…er I mean fool it into letting me type mainepaperpusher. No one keeps me from using my lower case m…certainly not this ancient iPad. Do you hear that, iPad? Later on we will have words and I’ll start every sentence with a lower case letter just to make you crazy!!!

Ok, end of side note, but don’t think I’m not still fuming. I’m glaring at this thing! Of course, it’s glaring right back because there’s a window behind me! Oh the injustice of it all!

This really REALLY is the end of the side note.

Maybe this will be a side note of the side note cause I need answers. I am looking at the new Macbooks and they are nice, but they still don’t have a touch screen and I had one of those once and I sort of miss it. Even though this blasted thing makes me all finger-crampy and gives me M’s when I want m’s (I just can’t let it go, can I?) I’ve been toying with the idea of getting an iPad Pro. Even if I get the old Macbook to charge again (charger on order, fingers crossed) it really is time for me to think about something new. For those of you who have used the iPad as your primary computer, how do you like it? For those of you who had a pc or macbook (small m just to make the Apple gods a little nuts) before and went over to the iPad, is it better living the App life or do you miss downloading actual programs?

For this paragraph I’m not even going to say that the side note thing is in the rear view mirror because it’s obvious that I have a hard time letting things go. I’ll try to pretend nothing irked me and just ask how you’ve all been doing? I’m sorry about not commenting. I’m doubly sorry for not seeing OODLES of awesome posts when they came out. I’ll try to catch up on some, but please don’t hate me (any more than you do now) if I don’t catch them all.

I’ll try to be on more now, even though I have to deal with this iPad. This should show you how much a really love you all! I might be on and off, actually. This bronchitis is kicking my tush and I’ve found out I have muscles I never knew I had. Do you know that we have ‘cough’ muscles?’ Ok, they aren’t really called that but I have coughed so much that those muscles hurt when I do. I’m all coughy when what I really need is coffee! Love and hugs, mainepaperpusher. ;P
