My Pride and Joy for Thursday..

     Dunno what possessed me to create this from scratch when I was so sleep deprived yesterday.  It seems I am more masochistic  than I thought - now who does that suddenly remind me of! Or maybe I was operating purely on adrenaline coz I was rather chirpy the whole day, more than I'd have expected anyway. Hey, does that make me an adrenaline junkie too? Darn if that just didn't remind me of yet another someone!



     I did it with Open Office Drawing.  It was surprisingly easier to use that I'd expected though I reckon Appleworks Drawing would have given me much less hassle - I had to use extra steps with this one!  It's really too bad the latter doesn't work well with the new Mac OS Leopard. Appleworks had its issues but when it comes to drawing, it was very precise and can't rival even Microsoft Office.  Of course I'm only comparing office applications, I'm not quite up to par with those whizzes on those professional drawing programs though that would be an amazing thing to pick up!

     I seriously don't understand why the people at Apple didn't bother making Appleworks a better program.  It officially reached end-of-life-status and was discontinued in 2007. What the heck! They could have had a loyal following with this suite  of programs!  Even if I'm more pro-Windows, I know a good thing when I see one.

     OK, I'd better stop talking applications before my inner geek is unleashed! Anyway... it looks good, if I may so say so myself. My pride and joy for the day!

     PS. Hey I didn't know that if you click on a pic on the blog, it is expanded into a new window of its own. Talk about a DUH moment!

Hey I've never hidden the fact that I'm a geek and nerd! I relish the idea of being both. ;) I just work better at applications than at actual hardware. :D Thanks sugar!
