Why does technology have to be so difficult?

I feel as though I am a relatively intelligent woman. I was able to graduate from a respected university with a bachelor's degree. I've held down jobs post graduation. Maybe I just completely depleted my brain cell supply after three children. I cannot understand how to do the most elementary computer tasks. Sure, I can read religious chain letters off email with the best of 'em, but ask me to cut and paste or change my wallpaper, I turn into a teary-eyed, slack-jawed moron. My sainted brother came over yesterday to try and instruct me on the high art of attaching an image to whatever I might post. Amid the diaper changes and refereeing of my daughters' fights, an image appeared, though how it got there has already escaped my "brain" (if it can even be called that anymore). Then, if that weren't fruastrating enough, my sainted husband tried to give me a mini crash course in the same subject. He works on and with these hellish machines all day, so my guilt flowed free, along with my incompetence. Needless to say, his success rate was as dismal as my brother's...resulting in yet more tears springing to my eyes. This blog will certainly be a journey for me. Stayed tuned for more laughs at my expense!
