Two hours of index finger excercise and all I got was this stupid header.

Older me will look back on this time and laugh at my excessive and inefficient fussing. However, the current me knows better than to think that I would ever do it any differently. Oh! Formatting! How I delight in you and curse you internally. I love dramatic Oh’s. If there was one thing I’ll remember from Shakespeare camp, it is that no Oh should ever be said lightly. Instead, it should be emphasized with such passion (pick your own emotion) that someone might almost think the Oh! is more important than whatever comes after it. Well, that’s not quite how it was put, but that’s how I like to think of it.
Let us turn to our favourite romantic comedy, Romeo and Juliet, for an example:

          ”O brawling love! O loving hate!
O any thing, of nothing first create!
O heavy lightness! serious vanity!”

I must say that it is much more interesting to observe how the actor manages to deliver all the O’s (for certainly, no good actor would do them all precisely the same way!) than to listen to the other wishy-washy blabber that Romeo has to say.

You can’t believe how much I love text boxes that allow formatting cntrl + ___ commands. Watch this next trick:

cntrl + endfirstposthere

    Hey love, I do believe that it’s abbreviated to “ctrl”! But hey, I love this post. It’s quirky and great, just like someone I know. :]
