Technology


Mary is fucked off- she's still waiting for her walk
I am all tech-ed out!
I now have my Fitbit in situ. 
( I've walked seven steps)
My mobile phone is up and running.
And I now have all of eleven contacts in my inbox and actually managed to send an emoji to my nephew without blowing a gasket
Yesterday's shenanigans  reinforced my need to have a phone. The Prof was pulling what little hair he still has after suffering my silence for 7 hours!  So I now accept that it's foolish of me to have kept away from my own smart phone for so long....
Jonney Graybags is now up to date
And that's a first in 55 years!

  2. A phone and a Fitbit. I have a fitbit and really like it. Phones are so helpful in an emergency like the delay you experienced. Welcome to the New World.

  3. Only seven contacts? When I set mine up YEARS ago it found contacts for me I didn't even know I had and millions of photos all suddenly stored themselves like magic without me asking jumping over from my laptop. Welcome to the world of the smartphone, you'll wonder how you ever managed without one.

  4. My son bought me a smart phone for Mothers' Day this year. That was in May. I have 4 contacts, and am working my way through Android Phones For Dummies. Big difference between 68 and 55, John.

  7. I know exactly how you feel. Last week I had to figure out how to add email to my tablet. Considering it is apple and I don't care how easy everyone says it is, it's a whole different animal. Technology! EEEEEEEEEE! At least you have your phone figured out and are set to go!

  9. Oh, that your manly arm - in command.

    You are in danger of becoming the third gay guy in my life I am tempted to fancy despite our selves.

    In the meantime I'll stroke Albert.

  16. What a horror story your trip home was...but you make it almost sound charming. You write so well, review so well too, that I'm brought up abruptly by your up to date ness. Perhaps I should go hunt up my own phone and get it charged.

  17. I've been seriously thinking about getting a smartphone to replace my flip phone. It seems these days that all the important messages from police, fire departments, towns, rescue organizations, etc. comes via facebook or twitter. I don't want to be in the dark if we have an emergency. I don't even know how to use one of the damn things. Congratulations on getting the hardest part over with. It will get easier, I'm sure.

  18. I love my smartphone despite holding out until last year. I needed to get the alerts from my brigade for call-outs. Now, I adore it, but one warning: Don't put facebook on it! That way you'll avoid the walking-zombie addiction problem. :)
