Why does it have to be so slow?

Made it back into cleavage of the Broads group to submit another short and sweet number.

Today's prompt - What are your biggest pet peeves from Em (but not me)

I am quite a tolerant woman and even when someone has let me down, I'm quite understanding when probably I should be ranting. But the thing that annoys me so much that I boil and shout out loud is bloomin' computer virus software and updates.

Imagine I only have 30 minutes to spare and I need to quickly use the computer to print off a map, or amend a document or write a blog post and what happens? The evil creeping virus software decides to scan or update something and slow everything down. I can't even shut it off because the whole computer universe has slowed down until it gets to the stage when I type a sentence and the words have a 30 second time delay because it's running so bloomin' slowly. Please note this is happening even as I write and my window of opportunity is short before my daughter gets bored with playing, calls me to read her bedtime story and another post will sit unfinished in the file.

The time I waste sitting waiting while the computer chug, chug, chugs away, it just makes me crazy. Then it has the audacity to tell me that it needs to restart my computer. Shut down my computer, take more valuable time away from me, does it not know how long it took me to get to this point and by the time I get back to where I was, my moment of time and inspiration will be gone!! Outrageous!

Ooh nice to get that out.
