Another Addict Is Born

As much of a gadget-geek as I am, it's surprising that I've just now upgraded my cell phone to a PDA. I guess I got tired of having to do the double-wide version of calendaring, surfing, and texting on the ol' Nokia flip-phone. Our provider was also making it oh-so-enticing with the low prices.

After a grueling two days of upgrading and installing and an oversight on the part of our wireless provider when selling me the PDA (forgot to mention it only works if you have certain plans, which I did not have and they did not initially give me!), I am now able to run my world from the palm of my hand. I have all of my favorite google products loaded (gmail, calendar, reader, maps). I can hardly breathe. (Of course, that could be a result of the surrounding wild fires or my failure to shower today.)

Anyway, explain this to me, Internets, why do I now have no desire to leave the house? Why do I just want to snuggle with my new Red Pearl, whispering into it's voice-activated circuitry? Shouldn't this wireless freedom make me want to head out into the wireless world to explore it's wireless-ness? Instead, it's nearly 4pm on a Sunday and I'm still in my jammies. It's damn near wine-thirty, I think. Guess I'll wait until tomorrow to get dressed. No use now. Isn't she perty?

The Law According to Murphy

Today we hoofed it around The Mall. Again. I am 1 part too excited about the weather to go underground to take the Metro and 2 parts too phobic to ride the Metro as the Grown Up In Charge. The last time I was in DC, I was a whopping 17 years old and being led around by the Close Up Foundation . The biggest responsibility I had was deciding what color I wanted them to make my hair at Commander Salamander . So, we walked. And, truly we're just a few block from the Capitol. However, if you've been to DC, you know that the Capitol and, say, the Washington Monument are a smidgen apart from one another...like a mile-long smidgen. And, if you know me then you know that I am the world's number one couch potato. In fact, there are many times I don't even go all the way to the couch as it's just too far from my oh-so-comfy bed. God bless Tempur - pedic . There's a point in here. I swear. I'll get to it eventually. First, I must also explain that we had plans to meet...

Unacceptable

The only solution to my blogging debacle, to date, is the revert back to a standard template, without any of the bells and whistles that make my blog MINE. What is the point of a blog that is not MINE? How ironic is it that the NaBloPoMo theme for this month is "voices"? Today's post brought to you by the discourteous folks at Google who cannot be bothered to help the multitudes experiencing this problem. Thanks. Really. From the bottom of my heart. You guys are the best. Smooches!
