STITTSVILLE, ON — Local graphic designer Anna-Maria Monteiro cancelled her subscription to a stock image website today, a minor task she found easy, but not peasy.
“It’s been hard to find the time to do this,” said Monteiro, “given how much hustle I have in my life – but recently I’ve become pretty free of bustle.”
Instead of facing the task head-on, Monteiro spent time dillying, but was able to get to it due to her lack of dallying.
“I spent about twenty minutes cooing over a video of baby sloths,” Monteiro said, “They were real cuties, but I pulled myself away since they weren’t full-on patooties.”
She had difficulty signing in to the stock footage website, given that her password spreadsheet was lost in a desktop in dire need of cleaning up, being all helter, though not fully skelter.
“I ended up deleting a bunch of old files I don’t even know why I was keeping.” Monteiro said. “I threw out the whole kit, but found space on a back-up drive for the caboodle.”
Monteiro needed to reset her password, and was guided by the site’s parameters to choose something obscure enough to qualify as “pure mumbo.” She didn’t opt for an alpha-numeric password that could also be described as jumbo.
“After signing in, stopping payment wasn’t hard.” Monteiro said. “There was some fuss involved, but surprisingly little muss. Which is good, because I hate muss.”
The whole endeavour left Monteiro feeling reasonably hunky, though not dory.
“Tomorrow, I’m going to unsubscribe all the other sites I don’t use anymore,” Monteiro said. “I hope doing it isn’t just easy, it’s also peasy. And if I do it right, it might even be lemon squeezy.”
