Gone are the days of just waving hello.
OH yes….it’s sad. Like “You can’t eat chocolate because it gives you cystic acne” sad.
The phone too…..
Not used much anymore. Even cellphones hardly get used as phones.
It’s all texting, posting, blogging, facebook-ing, twitter-ing, instant messaging, emailing…
What would you do if it all stopped tomorrow?
NO internet.
NO cellphones.
Would your life become harder or easier?
Now – don’t get me wrong….I’m a twitter-ing, texting, facebook-ing fool. I live and die by email. And pahleeeeze…NEVER call me. I don’t want to talk to you. But I’d LOVE to instant message with you. It’s just become so ingrained in me….it’s very, very sad.
But I have to admit. I miss the days of sitting on my porch, shootin’ the hay with a neighbor, drinkin’ a beer…..
I miss just playing a simple card game with someone like Gin Rummy.
Who are we even in this day and age??
Are we that perky, funny, witty avatar that’s excellent at condensing their life down into quip, cutesy, metaphors all within 140 characters???
Are we REALLY living the life that our Facebook profile is???? Seriously?
::I’m cracking up right now…..because you’re lying::
How about your MySpace profile??
OH yes…..believe you are that cool…..and you ARE that cool.
NOT.
I guess what I’m trying to say…is that I miss you.
I miss your face, the sound of your laughter and being able to give you a hug.
You know…”human” stuff. “Connecting with other people” stuff.
I’m “electronically” wore out.
And yes….I just typed the sentence above for a blog, on a computer, that’s connected to the internet. I will also twitter about this post and share it on my Facebook page.
I still miss you though.
I swear.
