I Love Excel…

…and I hate it.

Excel has a model, that seems to be broken all the time, and appears that there are a zillion ways to do things that are not a preferred way.  The most common situation seems that Excel either breaks, crashes hard, eats up on the memory, or some other monstrous thing happens to cause a day to go south.

But the reason I love Excel, and maybe it is the pack rat collector mentality I have sometimes is – you can put stuff in it.  It isn’t just putting stuff in it, but arranging, formatting, calculating, and crunching the numbers is interesting to me.  For some reason, this almost seems odd, as if I should be bored silly.  But in all seriousness I really dig working with Excel.

That’s my epiphany of the day.  Later I’ll probably write something more useful for myself, but alas, I was thinking…
