Empty without wireless
Thursday, January 10th, 2008 | General
I had to write a supplemental post about how I’m missing my wi-fi.
It’s as if someone has taken the cream cheese icing off my delectable piece of carrot cake. It just isn’t the same without that creamy soft and sweet deliciousness accompanying moist-cake so nice and soft with a hint of spice layered of raisins and carrot bits. Mmmmm.
R - God bless you for all that you do to ensure we can wander aimlessly through the house and not miss an instant of e-mail updates or blog posts… or even Stock prices.
Hrmph is what R might say, I’m lucky there is even a computer I can have access to, just so I can complain to all my Blog readers about the travesties I have to deal with while here. 
Not really travesties I know just simple inconveniences is all.
It would be far less painful if I didn’t have a paper and a presentation due in by Monday the 14th. Unfortunately, this next paper (on Nordstroms I might add) requires some amount of online research, so I’m conducting it on this computer and transposing it with paper and pen so that I may at some point use it in my paper when I get the chance to really work on it. Joy.
So I feel like I’ve traveled back to the early 90’s and am without instant gratification and affirmation of my friendships via e-mail. If only I could feel okay with being disattached for just a little while.
By the way, I’ll be driving to my neck of the woods on Sunday to see my best friend from Jr. High and her mom who was my 4th grade teacher, it’ll be fun to travel back in time, I don’t get to do that in Portland. She’s got 3 kids now and lives like a block from her mom, it’s amazing how people in life can choose so many directions and I admire that she stayed close while I ran as far away as I could as soon as I hit 18.
I don’t regret a thing.

Wireless spoiled me, that’s for sure.
Interesting that you start out talking about WiFi and then segue into leaving Arizona when you were a kid…another form of “going wireless,” for sure.
And there’s your friend, still living next to her mom, definitely not a cordless lifestyle : )
How incredibly profound. You are correct.
