But how do I upload one from my computer and have it in text? I know how to add a picture as an attachment, and how to link one via url, but I don't know how to take something from a folder on my desktop and drop it in between what I'm writing.

Simply click the upload button and then select a photo. It will list under the editor and then you can choose to insert in your post. It ends up generating a media tag which you can move around.

Use the upload button in the lower right of the editing window, choose a pic, then click either the thumbnail button or the full size button. Thus:
