lock the tracks

ME: in fcp, what does general error mean when you're trying to export?
RHI: try again?
ME: ha yeah - restart...
ME: apparently it wanted to go to the desktop, not the external drive
RHI: silly you. trying to put it somewhere else
ME: i know right, just bc it worked yesterday, what made me think it would work today?
ME: god, final cut is like s.
RHI: you're absolutely right
RHI: i'm glad you understand that now
ME: hahaha
ME: too bad i can't just lock her tracks....
RHI: HAHAHA
RHI: omg
RHI: so funny
RHI: that IS the secret
ME: HAHAHA
ME: i know!

(for the non-fcp ppl out there, this is so amusing to us bc while using final cut, my favorite editing program EVER, to cut her movies, the solution to almost every stupid problem that came up was, locking the tracks...and yeah, this is still probably only amusing to the two of us....tech nerd losers and metaphor junkies that we are....)
