Why take life too seriously?! There are things that happen every day that make me smile. Sometimes it's a question or story from my son. Sometimes it's a quirky thing heard over the cubicle wall. Many times it's dysfunctional things we say or do at family gatherings. Life happens. Let's enjoy it!

Shooting the Messenger
Not that I'm against modern technology. And I wouldn't say it's against me. We're just not on the same level – at the same time, that is.
After successfully hooking up cable to my TV last night, I felt like rock star. I can do anything!
And I can.
But can my smart phone?
This afternoon at work, my phone suddenly pinged to notify me I had voicemail. That's weird, I thought. I didn't even hear it ring. Well here it was a voicemail from LAST Friday. Yes, just getting delivered today.
And it was an important message – for me anyway. Thankfully no one else on the other end needed me to get a message. I mean hubby could have had a flat tire or been stranded somewhere. Or College Boy could have needed money. Oh wait, that message always comes through!
I was upset about responding 4 days after the fact and hoped it wasn't too late to deal with what I needed to deal with. I don't want to say point blank that "Verizon stinks" because I suppose dropped calls, texts and messages could happen with any carrier.
But would it happen with a carrier pigeon? As far as I know, they only drop their poop.
Could be worth investigating if our cat agrees not to eat our "service plan."
