pseudo-luddite 
i always joke about being a luddite, and hating technology. well, today i looked at my desk at work, and was horrified with what i saw. i have 4 laptops i am using at work. i have my personal iPod, a cell phone, and i just got a cute little palm pilot. at home we have 2 laptops, a wireless router, 2 external hard drives........what the crap????? is this my next halloween costume:
when it gets windy outside and the cable goes out, i feel anxious. if we lose our internet connection at home we're both lost. i have a blog i've maintained for almost 2 years, i met my boyfriend through online dating, and my job is in IT. i keep in touch with friends mainly through email and blogs. this is no good...... maybe this weekend i'll figure out how to hook up the old black rotary phone. i bet i can go online and get the directions!!!!
can i update this blog from my palm pilot???
i say you hand write your blog and snail mail updates to everyone! let's keep those postal workers employed!
ReplyDeleteYou kids and your gadgets..when I was a kid we didn't even have a dial on our phones...you picked it up and gave the operator the 3 digit number you wanted..No tv..Just a big old radio which was wonderful..You didn't need pictures to listen to a show...your mind was the canvas...and we didn't have to put numbers and dates in gadgets, we remembered them if they were important...
