It's so easy to get distracted

I logged on to post some more of my random musings. When I got here, I looked at my page and thought, "Gee, I should have a picture of a bench in the header>" So I went looking for one. I don't know why I thought it would be easy to find a bench that represents me. I can't even find clothes that represent me, so forget a bench!

I wanted a bench that looked inviting, so all the cast iron stuff I found was right out. No picnic benches, we're not having a meal. No pictures of lovers, that's not what this is about. Oooh, here's a pretty one... never mind, that woman doesn't look like me or anyone I know. And cultural diversity? Seems like that only exists in the real world not cyberspace. Ok, so how about a beach, I like it. I also found one of a group of people who looked like they were hanging out. Perfect! Oh wait, there's two women who seem to have stopped for a quick chat. Awww, and a cute one of two little girls sitting by a lake, looking across at the big city. It's nice to have options.

Next step, put a pic on the page, see how it looks. Oh my stars and garters! Who told me to go and to that? Now my colors are all mashed up. We won't even mention the fact that the pic isn't anywhere I wanted it to be. Steeeeeewps! (That's a West Indian way of saying I'm kissing my teeth). Undo. Try another picture. Good grief! That's even worse. Charlie Brown, don't you know you'll never succeed? Never you mind Lucy, I'm gonna kick that football, you wait and see. Just hold it steady.

Maybe if I resize the picture and change the colors on the page, then I'll get what I want. Ha Ha! Nice try Sambo. Too many bright ideas have landed many a good man in jail. Better quit while I'm ahead. Fie! I will not be defeated. Maybe if I click here, and move this here, change this over here, and what's this doo-hickey for? CURSES! Foiled again. Why am I yawning? 90 minutes have gone by since I started this nonsense. You've got to be kidding me. And to think I was gonna blog today. What a waste. I hope my page looks like it did before I started, but I'm too tired to check.

I hope that tomorrow I still remember what I was gonna blog about. Be good to you!
