My iPhone – that I totally have been in love with since the first day I got it – is betraying me. Well, not completely.
I can use the phone and all that, but the ringer has stopped working, as well as the speaker. Now the speaker I can probably live without, but the ringer? I mean, it’s a really integral part of the phone. Right? I mean, we all need for our phone to ring. Right? iPhone – how could you DO this to me? After I’ve told EVERYONE I know what a wonderful piece you are – since the day I got you!!!! I mean - I sing your praises as far as my voice will carry. Everyone around me knows that I absolutely LOVE my iPhone!!!! That nothing can compare!
I have an appointment at the Apple store tomorrow, but I'm nervous. I’m really, really hoping that they can fix whatever the problem is right then and there. I mean, I can’t be without my phone. . . I can’t. . . be without my phone . . . I can’t. . . I can’t . . . I can’t . . . breath. . . paper bag. . . does someone have a paper bag . . .I can. . . breath into?
Please Apple guy (or gal) don’t take my iPhone away. Not today. Not EVER!!! I really don’t want to have to buy another. But I will.
A couple of weeks ago I had decided to do a post on Facebook, but just hadn’t gotten around to it yet. It was going to be all about how I just don’t get it.
I joined due to “peer pressure”. I looked at several pages, and I DO find the layout confusing, and kind of helter-skelter. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it. It leaves me unsettled, trying to wade through all the “stuff”.
I also feel that the whole thing is very junior-high-ish. Do you want to be my friend? And why would I want to poke someone. What does that mean? It sounds dirty if you ask me.
Anyway, since I joined, I have had a friend that I worked with about 30 years ago contact me, and I’ve been able to look up several others that I haven’t seen in about as many years. It’s really pretty cool, being able to look up people that you’ve lost track of. Even if I don’t “get” all the blips and blurbs and pokes, I now have a way to reconnect with folks that I long ago lost track of. And that really is cool!
In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past few days, and haven’t seen the unbelievable clip of Susan Boyle on Britain’s Got Talent, you MUST take 7 minutes out of your life. There are no words to describe the great lesson to be learned here. Beautiful!!!
OK - so here's the deal. What's up with all the craziness in the world today? It's making me totally nuts!!!! Not every day - but some days. And on those days I want to be able to get crap off my chest. Fair enough? You can do it too, if you want.
So like I said before, I'm just your basic shmoe. Although I usually think I'm kind of liberal, some of the nutty things going on in this world make me totally turn into a ballistic-wack-job-conservative. I consider myself a "tree-hugger" and proud of it. (I've often wondered how that label got a negative connotation attached to it.) What would this world be like without trees? But I digress.
I chose the "yin-yang" symbol instead of my picture, because I think it totally sums up the world. There's the good vs. the bad, the dark vs. the light. I think we're all made up of both, and it is a delicate balance indeed, that determines which side we fall on. And on any given day, the side we fall on could change.
Geez, this is sounding kind of gruesome!! Sorry! Anyway - that's who I am and what I'm about, and I bet you can just hardly stand it - waiting to see what brilliant thing I will write about next? No? OK - whatever!
