You see this thumb drive?
It almost got the best of me! It's curvy design was new to me. I pulled. I tugged. I was on the verge of cracking the damn thing open with a hammer. It didn't immediately (or shortly thereafter) occur to me to push one of those red ends instead of pulling, tugging and beating first one end, then the other, on the edge of my desk. By the time it occurred to me that one of those ends may go in the opposite direction, I was talking to that little red trouble maker like it was a sassy four year old, instead of recognizing that I was thinking like a two year old. Think girl, think, don't just assume the curvy rascal should behave like all other thumb drives you have used (all three of them). So, I did. I collected my one directional thoughts and turned them around. When push comes to shove ... EUREKA ... don't shove, just push!
I am still MAD WITH MYSELF that it took me longer to go the other way than it likely would have for any of you! I may be doomed to existing in VEX mode unless y'all tell me the secret to quickly thinking in the other direction!
I'm not easily enticed, but Rob Thomas makes me lust.

Hey.. I've done that at stores where I try to get the door open and can't and everyone is hollaring, "It's a push not a pull!!"

I’m more of a ‘push’ kinda guy…especially if it’s someone I don’t like and they are standing at the top of some stairs…or an open, empty elevator door.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh I've had many things like that in my life. Sometimes the way to get something apart doesn't make much sense.
