Tickled Pink!!

Being new to certain things technical, I tend to approach them cautiously in order to screw anything up and then wind up looking like a ditz when I seek help to fix it. Anyhoo, I decided to test my creativity by playing with my cell phone. I have a Treo and although I was apprehensive about it at first, I've since become quite attached to it and all the things it can do. On Saturday I took a photo of the Union Jack (British flag for those who aren't familiar) to have it as my wallpaper. (Yes, I'm English!) Thinking it rather cool, I decided to draw on it. Yes, I can draw on pix that I store in my phone. How cool is that?! I managed to write Blu Jewel and center it almost perfectly on the main red horizontal block of the flag. I felt like a kid with a new toy! I couldn't wait to show my new creative prowess off to my friends. They too laughed and thought it "cute" that I was so tickled at being able to do it myself.
Onto even more ticklings...So, this morning, I decided my page needed a little sprucing, so I tried my hand at playing with the code. Lo and behold, I was able to successfully make some changes without the help of anyone!!! I felt all the hues of pink wash over me again. So, here I am in my tickled pink bliss sharing my technical creativeness with you. Ha! Even better yet, I can show off my skills to the Lil Lady and The Manager and make them "ohh and aah". Well, I doubt that they'll really do that, but I do think they;ll be pretty impressed that I can code! Hell, I'm impressed that I can code.
Now, please don't start emailing me to pimp your blog pages cause Lord knows I'm not that good, but feel good enough to know that I can do mine. Ah, the simple pleasures in life :-)

lol@this entry

i'm with you on this...find the pleasure in the little stuff. i damn near came in my panties when i figured out the code for my blog. mind you, i'd been at it for at least two days trying to find a format i could get with. i'm still learning it though.

it's one of those processes that never really ends.

Yes! I picked up a smartphone about two months ago and have been slowly tricking it out every day. By slowly I of course mean that I've only entered in ten contacts, changed the background to some sort of blue windoweys image and have played four thousand games of solitaire.

I'm useless with this thing.
