This blog is bugging me!

The last post I wrote - My cat, the niphead - took me about 40 minutes to write and then about another three hours to post! Now, I could have been spending that time far more productively - watching TV, soaking in a lovely warm bath full of luxurious bubbles, reading a good book, trying to figure out how to use Photoshop CS3 (struggling with that one!), sleeping, annoying my cats, annoying my brother etc. etc. OK, so the only really productive thing in that list is trying to learn how to use CS3 - but that is even more frustrating than posting a blog. Anyway, back to the plot.......The reason it took me so long to post the blog was because everytime I tried to post it, the line spacing didn't space properly. Sometimes, it doubled spaced. Then it single spaced. Then it didn't space between paragraphs. Now, this may not seem like a big deal, but I just like things to be right. I need things to be correct. My brother tells me that I am obsessive compulsive - he mocks me because I need my glasses and mugs to be in the right place in the cupboard, or the canned food to be sorted according to food type and then lined up. Now, don't get me wrong, I am by no means a clean freak - you just have to look under my couch to see the two extra cats - I have dust cats, not dust bunnies - but I do like things to be in the right place. The same is true of my blog, and I should not have to spend 3 hours to get it to look right. I need those three hours, if for nothing else, then for sleep. You may not know what I look like, but trust me - I need my beauty sleep!
