| fiddle, fiddled, gone |
| 01.17.04 (9:55 am) [edit] |
I'm a fiddler. That's what I do, I can't help myself. Maybe I need to go to FA and do the "my name is Andaloo, and I'm a fiddler" thing.
As a kid it wasn't unusual to hear my Mum shouting into the blue yonder, "Andaloo, have you been fiddling with the television settings again" or "who's been fiddling with the fridge...Andaloo!" One Christmas my parents decided to help me focus my fiddling and bought me a "Mecano" (sp?) set. I never built anything with that set, but used the tools to take the back off the television to see how it worked. (Just remembered...I wasn't as bad as my brother who, on receiving a "tool set" for a birthday present sawed off one of the coffee table legs!)
Anyway, as you can imagine, getting my first computer was like fiddler's heaven for me. I can now fiddle to my heart's content, and do. Which leads me to why I started this post. The other day I was fiddling with my links list and lost it. (A major set-back of fiddling is that you have to be prepared for the latest idea not to work.) So, I killed my links list.
If anybody is wondering why they've been ejected from my links, its nothing personal, I've just got to fiddle with it to get it back to where it was before I started.

Haha. When you said that you were a fiddler, I thought you meant that you played the fiddle. And I was thinking that would be really cool. But come to think of it, I think fiddling with just regular things is pretty cool too. But if you ever do start playing the fiddle, send me a recording ok? -tik
