I am a nerd.

Not long ago, in a time not so far away... society told us that you were a 'nerd' if you had a computer & knew how to use it. Now, it's the other way around...you are a 'nerd' if you don't own a computer &/or don't know how to use one. Technology is such a significant part of our lives these days that when I often tell people that I don't own a computer they give me the "WHA?!! HOW?! OH MY GOSH!" response. I suppose I am living in 1982-- I do not own a computer, I do not have cable, I do not have an iPod, I do not have long distance on my phone, I do not have central air, I do not have a dishwasher, I do not have a digital camera, I do not have a fax machine at home, I still pay my bills with a checkbook & stamps...I do have a cell phone & DVD player though! (but my cell only makes calls & does text messaging...I can't surf the web or take pictures from my phone ...& my DVD player...just plays DVD's, nothing fancy) I suppose I am venting all of this to say that is why I have not blogged in quite some time. I was in L.A. the first week of July, then I was at a temp job with no computer access (WHAT!), then I was off work another week with no computer access....& now here I am at my new temp job with computer access....bloggin'. I missed you all & hope to be back here more frequently...if not...I might have to pick up the phone or send you some 'snail mail'. WHAT! WHAT WOULD THAT BE LIKE!?!?? Phone calls & letters in the mail to update you on my life instead of email, text, & blogs!? that's crazy talk.
