Chou annoyed!!!
Arrrgh! I've been trying to edit the footage I took while home to show to my kids for ages, but I've been experiencing one technical mishap after another. First I had a shit editing program, so I had to get a new one. Not such a big deal, a friend gave me a copy of Adobe Premier, but his copy is only good for 30 days b/c the crack didn't work right...Then I thought I was ready to begin, but turns out I needed a FireWire cable. So today after school I went to K's Denki and bought the cable. But when I got home I realized it's the wrong one, so I went immediately back to K's and picked up (or so I thought) the right one. Well, then I get home and I'm rubbing my hands together and happy that I'm finally going to be able to get started. But then to my horror I pull out the cable and it's the same one I just exchanged!?!?! The stupid b*@$!tch at K's slipped the wrong m-ner-f-in cable in my bag. If I could speak Japanese I would call K's and tell those crack heads to come and deliver the right cable to my door, but alas, I can't, so instead I just get to bitch about it on my blog. Which I hate doing b/c the reason I hate blogs in the first place is b/c they're always so damn bitchy.
Thank God I have karate in an hour; running around with little kids and squatting until I get dizzy is the only sure fire thing that will calm me down and help me realize it was an honest mistake and I'll get the right cable tomorrow and then encounter yet a new obstacle in this video editing process. Gods of Technology be damned!

OMG, she doesn't know what a mouse is?!? sounds like she's got more tech problems than you do, april. good luck with the video editing. as nice as digital media is to consume, it's a bitch to create and takes lots of expensive software and powerful processing. if you need a crack for a program, lemme know and i can look for you, i know some good places.
Several of my students' parents have commented about April's visit and their videotaped Texas gusher of a message to all those Japanese kids. April was a real hit being such a cool young teacher. If those ignoramuses in that shop can't get you the right cable on the third try, we'll find one in Austin and get it there before the Longhorns beat A&M.
