A Conversation Way Above My Level

by Dale on Mar.30, 2009, under Interest, Personal

The other day, as I was wrapping up my work day, I noticed that a good friend of mine had tried to contact me via my IM client.  When I had a moment I took a look at the chat window and below is the conversation that ensued…..

me: hm….hello?
2:44 PM I hope this isn’t some cleverly disguised SOS signal
cuz I’m not getting it

I called my friend later to try to get some clarity, because I’m not that good at translating binary code on the fly or whatever programming language he was using to taunt me.

Come to find out….he’d left his computer on at home and his 1 yr old daughter had found it irresistible.

Ah well.  And that was my most intriguing conversation all day.

    The funny thing is that Bailey can’t even see the keyboard since it is over her head. . . she just reaches up & randomly mashes buttons. I picture her waddling over to the computer, randomly slapping buttons, then waddling away. . . then waddling back, more button slapping and waddling away again. Meanwhile I picture you staring at the screen, trying hard to figure out the gibberish she’s sending you.
    I will come back and read this whenever I need a good laugh =D
