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.

I am soooo guilty of several of these! 😀

#9 was probably that you have been tempted to say "LOL" in a real conversation.

#16 You meet people from all over the country that you have never seen in person, that you feel like you have known all of your life. You know all about them. You can't wait to read about what is going on in their lives. You smile with them, cry with them, and celebrate with them!!!!! And if you are lucky, you get to meet them in person, and PARTY with them!

#17 You end up hanging out with these people you meet more than the ones you've known for years. But, you still have to call them by there SoWal name.

It's great. Not wired yet. Have 27 minutes left on the public library computer. I feel like I've missed so much! Ahh! Had a meeting yesterday and one tomorrow. Got really lost downtown but kinda enjoyed it. I can take you on a tour of downtown. Maybe I need to get one of those fancy buses (preferably double decker).
