I had just finished writing the blog contemplating whether beer is alive or not and if it is alive that it is concerned about fulfilling its life's purpose. I mean, JUST finished writing it and was still feeling the endorphins pumping through my veins from the excitement of completing it. My fingers quickly went in search for the command key and the C key. I was ready to copy and paste that one into WordPress this instant!!
Once I pressed the command key and the C key enabling me to copy the blog, I decided I needed to adjust my sitting position. So, I raised myself up on one elbow while the other hand was holding and lifting my iPad up off my lap,...
No thought was even given to the fact that fingers might slip and push keys during that transition and could possibly erase all the words I had just cleverly strung all together.
Damn it! Haven't we already experienced this? Yes, but it was a little different. Remember? You were riding home from Seattle and you had to reconstruct the dead mouse or used tampon story?
Oh yes, I do remember that,... You are right that was different. This is just a little tweak on that lesson, a little refinement or subtly, that hones my coping skills. Cool, let's put our smile on and grow.
So, I am freaking out (about a level 1), because I looked at the screen after I got situated and saw the above mentioned screen shot in my notes. It could not have been a more appropriate emoticon for that situation. Laughing and crying at the same time. I thought I had lost the entire beer blog but, when I double clicked on the screen I was able to click cancel or some other amazing thing I don't really remember and it delightfully and surprisingly brought my blog back.
YAY!!!!!! And there's another story to share. Growing and expanding in big and small ways.
