Larry, Moe & Curly really ARE running the universe

I know I know, I keep saying this but once again it seems to be true.

Larry, Moe & Curly ARE running the universe.

today for instance, it started out with cat puke on my leather computer chair, which made me have to CLEAN, ( and I am still shuddering from it)

which delayed my caffeine intake,

which delayed my updating the blog

which delayed my daily work

which brings to............ (drum roll please) THE SCANNER

ok so I was scanning the articles I wrote, and the articles on my work, as I am setting up an online gallery of my work.

everything was going well, the scans were the right size, etc.

when suddenly the twain interface froze.

now you know that sickening feeling you get right before the ceiling comes crashing down on your head............

yes THAT feeling.....

well it was worse then that.

I swear soiled underware was involved.

( I doubt that one was the cat.......)

ok so no problem right???

I will go through another application and pick up the images through there right?

WRONGO

ok ok

so I will uninstall and reinstall the program right no problem, it will take a bit maybe what? 20-30 minutes right?

4 hours later.........

I finally got it to install........SOMEWHERE

it isn't on the hard drive, it isn't in the program files

but it says

IT IS INSTALLED ( imagine a deep very throaty voice intoning this as gospel)

no shit sherlock, WHERE?

I swear it is Larry, Moe and CURLY

it has to be the Stooges as this doesn't just happen right?

oye

ok so now what do I do?

I manually remove any thing and everything remotely involved in this install..........

I use their uninstall app............ which uninstalls the twain driver about 5 times

and then tells me to reboot

NOPE

so I packed it in for today

I am hoping that the computer has a better day tomorrow

now...........

in my mind I am lying on a warm beach....... sunlight filtered through palm fronds.......

I am getting VERY SLEEPY

I am GETTING VERY VERY sleepy

I am relaxed

I am not throwing the scanner through the studio windows

I am not strangling folks that are playing head games

I am not sitting here with frozen toes and a dead scanner....

hahahaha

til next time

vi
