New stuff!

Cate, Nick and Marla.  Thanks Marla for the photo.  Nick lives in Sacramento and Marla and Cate live in San Francisco and they can now get to know each other.  They had not seen each other in  12 years.  This makes me very happy.  Thank you Marla for the wonderful pictures!  I love them!

Well the trip to DC was fabulous and soon there will be photos.  Maybe I will post some but not until I get the computer back from the repair shop.  Sigh. We arrived back from DC on Saturday evening and the iMac worked fine.  But Sunday morning when Doug got up it was dead.  We don't know what was wrong.  We did not get the photos downloaded but that is okay because I am not afraid of losing them. But it has been in the shop for a week now and no word on the problem. So we are now proud owners of a MacBook laptop.  I nagged Doug in to getting this wonderful little computer.  Just like my short hair it takes some getting use to.  Small screen, keyboard in a different set up, no mouse, etc.  But I like it! Like my hair!

I thought I would go crazy without the computer.  No facebook, email, online news, access to recipes, oh the horror!  I really made me realize how much we rely on this medium.  Scary!  But now we have a network.  Once we get the iMac back, we will have 2 computers and the iphone that will all be connected. How cool is that!  For us it is very cool.  I still don't have a cellphone But I think a laptop is better!  Don't you?

Hair

I cut my hair.  Short.  I think I like it but I will have to play with it.  I will take photos and add them but I am getting ready to go to Washington DC with Doug.
I am real excited about it because I have never been there. I plan on going to the Library of Congress.

Tweets

Well I started twitter today.  I am not sure why but I did.  I seem redundant to have all of this overlapping networking tools going on.  But I went to a library conference and Michael Stephens insists that these tools are necessary.  So I will tweet and play on facebook.  On facebook I have called all of my avatars Spicy Pepper.  I could not have that on twitter so I am Pica Pepper.  Same thing only different.  

I quit smoking.  No one is dead and no property destruction as of yet.  Although I do have someone in mind.
