A Haiku of Frustration and Escape to TV

My motivation is zapped for the day. After trying to figure out what is going on with the communication system of choice for the 2011 WordCount Blogathon, I'm just about fed up with this blogging maze called a "community." What seemed fun as May 1st was approaching has now become a frustrating stream of work and confusion. Add on top of that the fact that there does not seem to be a direct way to contact Google and this whole experience is just a mess.

All is not lost though, thanks to Prime-Time television!

So, here is my haiku.

Technology Sucks
At Times When It Does Not Work
"The Good Wife" brings Peace

Despite the fact that CBS and The White House ruined prime-time viewing for television audiences who were watching "CSI: Miami" last week, today, a new episode of "The Good Wife" can and will be used to end what has been a very long and tiring day.

My favorite Haiku:

"Haikus are easy
But sometimes they don't make sense
Refrigerator"

Heh...

lol oh Herman,

Thanks for the good laugh. That is the best Haiku, even better than mine.

Now that The Good Wife episode just ended for this week and I read your comment, I'm just about as relaxed as can be right now!

I am also getting frustrated with the Blogathon Google group.
Your haiku was very cute! Lol. Wish mine was as creative...

Thanks :) I liked reading your Haiku. It was a nice way to highlight the love of your life in a heartfelt way!
