Me + Technology = Fail.

Today the weather is bad

I’m not going to lie

It makes me kind of sad.

Real talk:  I never should have been allowed to purchase a smart phone.  Ever.  I’m SO bad at technology that it is ridiculous, and every time I try to do something different and “smart” with my Thunderbolt, I end up on the verge of a panic attack. 

One time, I tried to change my ringtone and I ended up erasing every single event I had saved in my calendar. 

Another time, I tried to answer while driving and changed the default display language to Spanish.  That one took a good while to sort out.

Thank God for people who understand and enjoy technology. 

Today is my friend Chris’s birthday.  Chris is an IT guy with an MBA, and he is undoubtedly one of the smartest people that I have ever met.  He got to spend a large portion of his birthday on Google Chat with me, walking me through some (seemingly) very basic instructions to make certain things on my phone do what they’re supposed to do. 

Thanks, Chris.  I love you, I’m so thankful for you and Erin, and I am glad that you have the patience to deal with my technological inadequacies. 

And, just so everyone is aware, I managed to cross the street today (more than once!) without any mishaps!  I kind of had to give myself a little bit of a pep talk before I crossed the first time, but when I looked down and saw my trusty cowboy boots on my feet, I knew that I would be just fine. 

I’m telling you… it’s the heels.  I just can’t.

Hopefully, by next week things will have calmed down enough (there are some crazy things happening in my life right now… I’m scared to talk about them for fear of jinxing everything) for me to get back to my regular blogging habits.  

I will return on Monday.

I hope you all have a fabulous rest of the week, and hopefully when I post again it will be to share some exciting news!

(I’m not pregnant. No worries.)
