Why must technology suck
I swear, every time I have a seamless experience with a computer, something bad has to happen. This afternoon (which has now become evening) I've been turning an old video of my Grandpa into a DVD at library. This sort of thing takes a while, and i was prepared for that...but now it's all effed up.
The video looked great in iMovie, and was perfect when I previewed it in iDVD...so I burned some copies to DVD. I then packed my bags up and all of a sudden thought to myself, "Hey Josh, you should check to make sure it burned properly." So I put the disc in and lo and behold the audio track is the Helen Keller movie. HOW THE HELL DID THAT HAPPEN? Nothing I've done here has anything to do with the Helen Keller movie! It's just so damn random that I have to laugh.
The library let me borrow a portable hard drive so I can transfer the video to my laptop, and take the problems home with me instead of sitting here. Oh, look, now the computer is telling me that the file cannot transfer because of an error. Please, Apple, don't tell me that I spent my entire afternoon in vain...
The fucking Helen Keller movie...I still can't believe it.
Update: Alright...I give up. I'm starting from scratch, everything I've done since 3 o'clock this afternoon has been for naught. So, what are you doing on this beautiful Saturday evening?
