Fighting over the computer

Today is not going to be a good day for me to do a lot of posting on here. Seems that my little 7 year old is just like her dad when it comes to the computer. She wants to hog it all the time. But that is alright, she is too sweet for me to say no to her.

It amazes me how well she has picked up on the computer though. She has not messed anything up at all. I remember when I first started using a computer about 10 years ago. It seemed that every day I was getting a error alert or just locking the dang thing up completely. I learned a lot by trial and error. At first there was a lot more errors. And I quickly learned how to re-install a program that somehow I would find a way to make it not work.

Do you ever talk to your computer like I do? What do you usually say to it? I think I have come up with some really bad names for mine in the past. I am glad there is not a commandment against swearing at your computer, if so I would have been done gone to hell. My ex was a keyboard destroyer. She would blame the keyboard for her typing errors and literally execute it.
I know she is glad they do not make keyboards that hit back.

Well my time is up, the little one has me on the clock and she has informed me that I have 5 more minutes. So I will talk to you again tomorrow.

My school had me using a computer when i was 5 years old. i was really unco-ordinated and couldn't use the mouse properly but i think that's why i have gotten so good with computers today. My generation was built around computers.
