Hello and welcome to another Late Lame Post Friday post. I am hoping to have a few Mohawk Valley Adventures today but wonder if the weather will cooperate. As if the winter storm thinks to itself, “I’ll pass over the Mohawk Valley; Cindy wants to do some stuff.”
That is kind of a funny habit most people have, of endowing the weather with a personality (stand by for some of that half-baked philosophy I like to share on Lame Post Friday). As in, “The sun is trying to peek out.” Do we picture a little sun ducking and weaving around the clouds, like a basketball player trying to get clear for a shot? For heavens’ sake, the sun is light years away from the clouds and IMMENSELY bigger. But it makes my head hurt to think about these things and I already have a little bit of a headache (not a bad one and no, I did NOT tie one on last night! I had one glass of wine. Sheesh!)
While typing the last paragraph (with ten fingers on my Chromebook), I realized, I do not have a caps lock button. There is a magnifying glass on the button where caps lock should be. A bunch of icons pop up when I push it. On my Tablet I can hit the caps button twice for caps lock. That doesn’t work here. I just kept my little finger on the shift button to type IMMENSELY, in case you were interested. I know, first world problems. Additionally, some would say I did not need caps lock for emphasis, I could have used italics, as I am well able to do.
Sometimes I miss them.
One thing I like about this Chromebook: no autocorrect. It underlines stuff it doesn’t like but does not, for example, change “hell” into “he’ll.” It underlined “autocorrect,” by the way. When it is a grammar thing, it underlines it in a different color and gives a suggestion when I put the cursor there. For example, it underlined “caps lock” and suggested “caps that lock.” That gave me a little chuckle. I gotta get my laughs wherever I can.
In the meantime, I am over 350 words. That is more than enough for this nonsense, which I admit I have rather enjoyed. Have a nice Saturday.
