Like Fine Embroidery .... with a Fork!

Arrrgh! I double HATE computers!
I spend hours each day on a computer.
Even when not working...I am surfing the 'net, conversing with friends or family, blogging, and
worse yet....
creating. I absolutely adore creating slideshows, with music....sometimes for us, sometimes for gifts.
And I HATE it!
Don't know how many times I've been frustrated to within an inch of being put away. Put away in a dark, dark, rubber room....where I can slobber and cry and scream and rant and not impose any of that on another human being.
A couple of weeks ago I created a fairly short (when you consider the thousands of pictures I've scanned!) slide show for our oldest son for his birthday. I even got some cool Philly jazz to add as background.
Compiled it.
Burned it.
No probs.
Then I decided to do the same for middle son whose birthday is next weekend.
I got a little more determined to mine for even more pictures for this one.
I downloaded (UP loaded? - I never get that right) a special song for his too. Decided on others, but decided to actually pay for one until I knew I'd got it right.
I have attempted to burn it now about 200 times. (Maybe actually 20).
Error code.
For no particular reason.
So I tried it with less pictures.
No music.
ONE picture.
The burner has stomped its feet, crossed its arms across its chest, spat out the dvd and that, my dear readers is that.
No burn.
Except for mine.
I am burning.
And where am I?
At my computer. Venting. Like that'll help.
Actually, it has!
