I have lately watched way more TV than is good for a person, but I am really interested in the disappearance of the Malaysian plane. I usually watch CNN, and the host of whatever show is on says "Tweet me with your questions".
Well yes, I have lots of questions and they are better questions than many coming in to CNN. But how do I Tweet without an iPhone? Possibly I could do it with my Jitterbug phone, except that I have text messages blocked, and I don't want to go through the hassle of unblocking them just to Tweet!
But why can't I send it from my computer? I have done a lot of research and finally found out that I could register on Tweet.com and indeed tweet from the computer. In the process of registering I ran into a roadblock I couldn't figure out and said "hell with it". I really didn't want to send a message anyway. I don't understand why CNN or anyone else doesn't just give you the option to send an email, but most insist you use Facebook or Twitter.
I got a shower, hair wash, and got dressed this morning, and I look and feel much better. Yesterday was a real waste! I just got back from Costco where I needed to buy eggs and coffee beans, but a box (72) of Eggos caught my eye and into the cart it went. I love those things once in a while and they make a good quick snack.
Now I have to go to the grocery to get milk and a couple of other items, but I just hate to get in the car again. Maybe after lunch I'll feel more like it.
My dental appointment tomorrow has been moved up from Noon to 10 am. I will have to get up and get a move on in the morning, but I'll get it out of the way sooner.
Although there are some clouds in the sky, the sun is shining today. But with only a high of 62F expected, it is only warm in the direct sun.

You can probably tell this will be somewhat of a rant, so it's your choice to read it or not. Without going into a lot of detail, I'd like to say I am sick and tired of many technological advances. I don't have a smart phone which prevents...
- Taking A Break
I probably won't post again until Monday. I'm still debating on whether to take my computer and MiFi along, just in case, but I would probably have to drive somewhere out of the campground to get a signal. So I will detox, if you can...
- Another Hot Day!
It is 102 right now which is supposed to be our high for today. The next week or so should be in the 90's or high 80's, so it will be a little more comfortable. This is really awful, but I can deal with it. I took a nap...
