Nothing much

So really I should be doing other things right now, but I wanted to share something that's exciting to me, although it might make me look a little slow. Here I am someone who types for hours and hours every week and the only shortcuts I knew were cut, copy, and paste. Last week I learned how to skip back and forth a word at a time and also delete and highlight a word at a time. Which I have been practicing. Today, I learned how to make my own shortcuts! Which means that now I have a shortcut to highlight words (very much used by me) and also, I have a shortcut to the AutoCorrect function! Hooray! SO MUCH FASTER. Where has this been all my life? Oh, yeah. Exactly where it is now. I just never bothered to learn.

And to reward you for actually coming to read a post called "Nothing much" and then making it through that short bit of nothingness, I'll post something fun and interesting. We were researching classical music that has been "jazzified" and found this Christmas-y piece.



I really hope you took the time to listen to at least part of that. Isn't it great?!

Loved it!

I know! (I am the 2. It was 901 when I looked.) :) I liked it even better the second time I listened to it. Glad you loved it!

Wow, that's fancy, and classy. From Classical to Classy. :) That xylophone player is really good.

Oh, and about the short cuts. I'm all about keyboard short cuts. It's usually a while before I learn them, then I'm always glad I do. Then I learn them when someone is teaching me something completely unrelated to the shortcut, but then I'm suddenly like, "Whoa, hey, what did you just do? I can do THAT?!" Then, like you said, "Where has this been all my life?" :)

Seth - I really liked the vibraphone, too. I'm so glad Morgan found this one!
