Emerging from the Dark Ages...

Over the past week or so, I've come to realize that my life doesn't function properly without a computer. Here's how my days have gone lately.

It's morning and I need to get the housework done. I to listen to music to keep me moving and energetic. Where's my music? On the computer. Oh look, it's time to pay bills. How do I do that? Yep, on the computer. I need to find some pictures to send to someone. Oh, those are on the computer, too! I need to send Kid A's teacher a message. Gr. Stupid broken computer. It's time to cook dinner. ARG! All my recipes are stored on the computer! By this point I'm cranky and all I want to do is relax and watch my favorite TV shows... #@$*! I watch those on the computer because I'm still helping out with homework when they air!!

I think I've become a little too dependent on the magical electric box. Hopefully, I'll have a new one before the week is out. In the meantime, I'm grateful that my little sister is letting me borrow her old one.

What's something you can't live without?

I would say my lap top is the main thing I could not live without. I'd die! I'm sorry you're having so many problems.

I also would have a hard time without my iPod or cell phone.

I'd be lost without my phone(s) too! Communication is a good thing. :)

Let's be honest here guys... we could probably all manage without the electronics as long as we all had a good book... right? OK, so maybe that's only me. And maybe I can only say that until I really have to go without!

Shauna, I'm not sure I could deal without my lap top even if I did have a good book. The book would be helpful in taking my mind off of my "cut-offness," but I think I'd still go crazy. But, then again, I am very addicted to my computer. It's like a third arm.

OK, OK you can have your laptop!!! I'll just back away slowly and try not to make eye contact! (shauna retreating back into book)

Ah! I guess I really can't live without talking to Kayla... and since it takes a phone or computer to do that... guess I can't live without them either!
