What did you just call me??

Excuse me while I giggle folks.

Grandy has a friend that said I could go online real quick, to get this post up at my other site.  I sat down at her computer, powered it on, and it took nothing short of 20 minutes to get it completely logged on.  I tried to log into the internet and that just wasn’t happening.

“Yeah, it’s been real slow lately.”

Really?  Honey, HOW do you do this?

I ultimately gave up the battle there, but instructed her to do a disc cleanup (and I only knew how to because she has an icon for it on the desktop) and see if that helped.   Guess WHAT!  It did!!  She was so excited she had her internet working at normal speeds, and could do things again. 

Then I sat down and showed her how to upload pics to her facebook account.  I got her all set up, and she was on her way.  She had all sorts of plans for different albums and captions.  It was fun to see her excitement.

As we were leaving she is telling her husband, “I’m going to have to have my computer wiz over more often.”

Surprised ::Grandy looking around the room::  Surprised

Who might that be?  I wondered.

“I know you’re not talking about me.” I ultimately told her.  “I’m about the farthest thing from it.  Have you seen my BLOG?  Allow me to introduce you to my Girly Anti-Geek.”

Folks, I know it’s no secret to you that I’m NOT a computer wiz (more like a cheese whiz if you ask me) but for just that moment, it felt good to have someone think so.  I realized that maybe I do know a little bit more about this stuff than the average person… and then I wake up from that dream.
