YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2009 when
September 24, 2009 | Filed under: Stuff
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.

Damn right #6 & proud of it!! I did the shopping so my 6’2″ hubby & my almost 6’5″ son can lug them in the house(in way less trips too).

Too funny! Even technically challenged me does almost all of these.

Oh my gosh, this is too funny. I’m # 4, 5, 10, 12, and I did 13, 14, and 15.
I tell people if they want to reach me, then they have to email me because I’ll respond quicker.

Being of an older generation there are times when I think the world has gone crazy!!! I used to yell up the stairs to my kids!! My voice carries well!!
People are way to connected. I can go weeks without turning my cell phone on. 
All that said I do love my computer and do appreciate some of the technological advances. 
Thanks for the giggles.

LOL
What that list is missing is what I experienced while on a road trip with my brother and his friend. We had mobile wireless and a power adaptor in the car. So, instead of actually talking to each other, the two of them chatted in a chat room while I drove.

Is it sad that I did check that there was no #9? Yeah, thought so. *G*

I’m right there with you Brandy. The whole thing cracked me up. To think when I was in high school the big thing to have was a pager.
