I’d like to think that for my age I’m some what knowledgeable of how to operate and use my computer.  I say that because I have seen people around my age (slightly older and younger) whom are able to check their email and myspace and that’s about it.

I can “clean” my computer, defragment it, and connect just about anything to it.  Even if I have to find the driver on-line.  However, my husband is a Software Engineer.  So not only can he make totally awesome stuff happen with my computer!  But when he tries to explain to me what he has done…it sounds like wonka wonka wonka, blah blah psssst.

I couldn’t feel more ignorant about something then if I had went into the New York Stock Exchange and just held up my fingers yelling “Buy buy sell sell!”.  Making it even worse is when something goes wrong I have to sound like a bigger dumbass by trying to explain the problem.  Example:  “I dunno I just tried to open Firefox and it just kept opening more windows and saying something about (this part exaggerated) ksdjfhliudhflasiuhi8687ry60ew89y7r9w8.ksjdgfk/,sdhb///skdjghfabg”.

But guess what, my husband will open a window I didn’t even know existed (outside of the days when we had to load every program into our computer via massive floppy’s…showing my age) and some how understand this language and responds with (again exaggerated) aslkjdghlasiudcbu///;skjbuashybd87346032764.  Everything suddenly fixed!

So okay I get it:  it’s magic!
