Stephietoo just emailed me this and I thought it was definitely worthy of posting. Enjoy!
YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2006 when...
1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.
2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.
3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.
4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.
5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is... That they don't have e-mail addresses.
6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.
7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.
8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.
10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.
11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. : )
12. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.
13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.
14. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.
15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list.
AND NOW U R LAUGHING at yourself.
Scary how true this is. The cell phone one in particular. I do go back for my cell if I forget it. I always justify it because of the kids, like I have to have it in case they need me or something happens. But we seemed to live thousands of year without them...

These are me!!!! Oh but in #5 even with an email I don't keep in touch because it still takes a little too much time; I have been thinking what will be next....mental telepathy?
And #6: I call Pete downstairs to come and get one of the kids or worse to see if he'll bring me a drink. Crazy!
oh and I did check to see if there was a #9. How about how we (me) try to get our emotions to come across by either.....or lots of exclamation marks, or lower cases or something.
This was so funny, Steph.
