As I spend hours and hours on photoshop, I am suddenly and profoundly glad for the undo/redo buttons. I look forward to the day when technology is such a major force in the world, that we can undo things in real life. And then redo them when we undo them with an accidental twitch.

I so look forward to such a time, in fact, that I quite often catch myself thinking, "Ah--ctrl Z, ctrl Z!"

I screwed up on a pattern I was working on in my sketch book, and was disappointed to find out that sketchbooks do not have a control, nor a Z button. This is likewise for my sewing machine. And my psychology test. And knitting--but I hate knitting, anyway, so I generally don't bother with it.

More things in life need an undo option. I want to be able to undo large portions of my actions. Maybe I can undo whole days. That sounds fair, right?

"Oh, man--my boob just totally flopped out of my dress! UNDO!" Poof, done. "Oh, I just made an ass out of myself in front of my crush! UNDO!" Done. "Oh, crap--I just undid the six hours of hard work for my English Essay. REDO!" And that'd be done, too. ...eh, redone.

Copy and paste is a pretty neat option, too. I don't know about you, but I am very lazy. Sometimes, I go on a long story only to find out the person wasn't listening or couldn't hear me, and I certainly don't feel like repeating myself, so I just tell them "Forget it; it wasn't important." Even when it so totally was important.

That's how my cousin got eaten by velosoraptors.

It'd be so much easier if I could copy the things I say, and then paste them into the conversation if I need to. It's what I do for internet posts and, damn it, it's what I want to do in live conversation!

...I'm  a crazy person, aren't I? I spend too much time on the internet and I need to get out some... I need, like, friends or a boyfriend or something, because I think maybe my perception of reality and fantasy is breaking down.

And now I really wish I had the next episode of DNA ready, because there really is no graceful way to end this post. At least if I had a new Death Note Abridged, I could just scream about something and then put up the video. But now....

Erm. I need a way out of this.... I need to get back to photoshop to finish my picture so I can post the next chapter of a fic. I've been considering posting that fic on LJ, maybe, but I don't really know any good communities for that sort of thing. The only pokemon fic community I could find was pretty dead and... Well, I hate posting on things that seem dead. Hell, I don't even comment on posts if it looks like it's been inactive for three hours.

Ah, well. END TRANSMISSION!

dna, rambley
