One Click Wonder

I did it.  I don't know how, but I did it.  Travis was trying to tell me, step... by... methodical... step... how to do something with our iPhotos and I got antsy.  "Surely I can do it better", I thought.  "I'll just quickly click and drag..." Then it was as if the house reverberated with the movie sounds that indicate evil has just entered the building.

In one mouse click I hid all of our iPhoto pictures and couldn't get them back.  To his credit, Trav simply kept his thoughts to himself and calmly walked away, leaving me with the mess I'd made.  I worked hard to undo my goof but to no avail.  I tried avoiding it with everything I had, but in the end I admitted defeat, accepted my title as "one click wonder" and asked Travis to take over at the keyboard.  

He eventually found most of our photos but they're all unorganized now and I think there are still some missing.  Sounds like my first trip to the "Genius Bar" at the Mac store will be to figure out what I did and conclude my lesson on how not to get click-happy when Travis is trying to teach me how to do something.
