creature of habit
for those of you who know me best, this is nothing new but i really hate change. as much as i may want it, need it, crave it—i hate it.
today’s little freak out session comes from the change from acad2002 to the newer but soon to be obsolete 2006 version. it’s the little things that piss me off the most. i can cad in my sleep (a useful skill for architects to have). i’m probably one of the best cad monkeys in the office (but that’s not really saying much) and if i want to copy something, then i type “c” damnit, not “copy” or “co” so why in the hell would anyone go changing that!? and if i want to copy with a basepoint, then i right click and effin click “copy with basepoint!” not right click and go into the newly created but seriously pointless “clipboard menu” and then click it, no! that’s an extra, unwanted, unneeded, useless, annoying step! bitch, whatever happened to hdt’s “simplify simplify simplify”!? all my tools are in the wrong place because i can’t export my profile. any why can’t i just make a new blank document!? fuck templates. i don’t want a computer to try and think for me! i think just fine all by my little lonesome. i just want it to draw straight lines, because that i can’t do to save my soul.
just think, if i’m this pschyzo about the little things in stupid computer programs then imagine how nuts the big shit makes me... like the obvious ever rapidly approaching date of 8.1.06, when i hop in a car and don’t stop for 1000 miles. yes kids, that’s the date i venture into the big bad unknown that is the midwest. missouri loves company, so i’m on my way! leaving behind: my family, my friends, my job, my apartment, my annoying neighbors who never take their laundry out of the washer/dryer, my backyard, my tree house, my grill, my sun porch, my pink kitchen, my jeep, my bongo playing neighbors, my running route, my daily routine, my bank, my doctors, my time zone, my ocean, my view down washington road from route 1 as i drive home from work, my street name, the boathouse, the rowers, the dbar, the ivy, the bitches who shit vanilla ice cream... well, i didn’t say i’d miss everything.
ack. ok, coffee break.
