I’m so proud of myself. I’m so hip to yesterday’s technology that it’s scary.<\/p>\n
I didn’t tell you, but for Mother’s Day, Beloved and the boys got me an MP3 player. I have no idea how to use it. Beloved loaded it up with some songs he had on the computer already, including a little U2, some Billie Holiday, and Kenny Loggin’s “Danny’s Song”, the song that makes me cry every time I hear it. (There’s a line that goes, “Pisces Virgo-rising is a very good sign, strong and kind, and the little boy is mine.” Tristan is a Pisces. Also strong and kind. Also mine. Sniff.)<\/p>\n
Someday, I’ll have enough time to find one of those music sites, and figure out how to use it, and actually choose some music. Anybody got any recommendations? Preferably something like MusicFor30somethingsThatDoesn’tSuck-
AndIsRiduculouslyEasyToUse.com?<\/p>\n
And now, I’m writing this on my fancy-ass new laptop. I’ve never had a laptop before. Although it’s taken me a bit to get used to manipulating the little mouseless finger-tracing thing-me (don’t be threatened by my technological jargon) I can’t tell you how wonderful it is to get out of the basement and have a computer I can port around the house. Coincidentally, I noticed today that Ann <\/a>also has a new laptop. It’s a banner day for mobile blogging!<\/p>\n So now I have a blog, a laptop and an MP3 player.
