Okay, so I decided it was time to get my act together. Time to evict some long time residents from my to do list.
I’d listened to my Wayne Dyer Excuses Begone! audiobook on the ipod the previous evening. I was pumped. I was ready to go.
I flicked on the mac, opened up word, and checked my email so I wouldn’t be sitting there wondering if anyone was desperately trying to contact me (they weren’t).
Then it happened.
‘Updates available’
It didn’t worry me. I was pumped. I was ready to go. Remember? I stupidly hit okay, and kept hitting okay to all its requests, thinking that going with the flow would be the speediest course of action.
Wrong.
What began then, was the motherload of uploads.
Do I not use this computer everyday? Is it not set to check for uploads more regularly than the coming of each winter equinox?
Apparently not.
I plugged the ipod back in. There was at least another three hours of Dr Wayne to go. He was talking about ‘will the changes I need to make take a long time, or a short time?’. This time I had the answer… a little longer than expected.

hahaha, you’re too funny. Nothing ever takes a short time – no matter how pumped (or organised) you are. I just moved office and spent all morning tangled up in cables and fussing with routers. Now I’m surrounded by piles of dusty papers and books. Joy.
