Stupid blogger

What is it with computers always needing to upgrade things? I have had this blog now for I think three years this summer. Of course, I've actually only been writing in it for maybe two, but still...it's the whole concept of me actually having the decency to have a blog for a whole three years. That's a long time. And I understand that the blogger website is capable of upgrading their website, but why should I be forced to upgrade?! It's my blog and I don't like change! It isn't always good!

I remember the last time that AIM upgraded. I decided that I didn't want to upgrade because I liked the old AIM just fine. I repeat, I don't like change. So many of my friends upgrade to the new AIM and they don't even like it. They complained about it. And now everytime I talk to someone that has the new AIM I have to change the color of my font because my pretty white lettering doesn't show up on their stupid new AIM. Now isn't that a waste of an upgrade.

Instead of upgrading stupid computer things that don't even need upgrading why don't they instead upgrade things that we could benefit from? For instance, let's upgrade the food in the vending machines down in the basement of my dorm. How about we get some Pringles and Mike & Ikes in there? Those two things alone would be a huge improvement. And how about some chocolate milk in the beverage machine? I am a growing college student! (Well...not technically...I'm pretty sure I'm stuck at 5 foot 1 unil the day I die...unless I shrink with old age...that would suck).

And how about upgrading Music Jukebox so I can actually download music? That would be pretty sweet. I have a whole freaking lot of music on my laptop, but sometimes I'm just not in the mood to listen to any of it! Half of it reminds me of people and stuff that I need to just freaking stop thinking about (But that's a whole other story). If I could download music then it would save so much time. I wouldn't have to go to yahoo music and sign in and then search for the songs I want to hear only to find that they don't have them. And I know what you're thinking. "Katherine, there are other programs that you could use to download music." But I can't. They mess up my computer. So work with me, music jukebox. Upgrade!

I guess there really was no point to this ramble. I just went to sign into my blog with no real idea of what to write about and it made me upgrade...and I was doing so good avoiding it for so long. I am so mad at blogger right now. I have half a mind to switch to xanga. But that would be just stupid.

Peace out!

1. this post is boring (yeah..i said it..)

2. it's not like Miami is the one that made you upgrade blogger..so what does the whole vending machine food thing have to do with any of this??

3. musicjuke box can download music. it's just not free. and there are good programs that won't mess up your computer. You just have to ask around and find out which ones those are. or..do what i did and ask josh to get some songs for you

4. everything will be okay...the new blogger isn't that different (i've had it for two weeks now..no big deal). We will be home in less than a week. You will start writing better blogs, life will somehow go on, and the world will be a better place.

I hear ya! I'm still using the older style yahoo e-mail. They keep asking me to switch to the new version and I refuse! :) One of the reasons is because I have my web browser half-screen instead of full-screen and it smooshes everything together in the new style of yahoo.
