technology

did you ever hit that point where you have to admit you're addicted to electronic/Internet/instant communication?

i did yesterday. my name's lex and i'm an addict. i prefer the term techno geek. had to run up to the store. literally 1 mile round trip and would be away from home for 15minutes. realized halfway that i'd forgot my phone. I ALMOST TURNED AROUND! ack! i didn't. but, the "what if someone texts me?" did cross my mind. pretty sad eh? but, i know i'm not alone.
then, there's the whole computer/internet deal.  did you ever think about how your must have suddenly is last years? what do you do? upgrade the old one? buy a new one? who knows. i own a desktop that literally has dust on it. i haven't used it in over a year. my main computer is a laptop. she's my girl. gets used daily. about a month ago, i saw a netbook on sale. figured when traveling it's light. then, see a great deal on a tablet  last week. "ooooh, that could fit in my bag and go everywhere". my phone does a lot of the same stuff. do i need 4 computers? hell no! it's the must have the latest thing. give it 3-4 months and it'll all be outdated.

i really do think it's an addiction. and, it's so common. when i was my oler son's age, i never thought to save up for the latest game system or tablet pc.

thought of the day

sometimes well enough is all you can get. it's called real life.

surgery done

well, 3 actually. hence why I've been quiet. ah the joys of dental issues.
