connectivity

After 2.5 years, my laptop... which I fondly refer to as Granny Smith (only when people aren't around, of course) failed me. Long story short, I was left incapacitated for about 12 hours while the Apple Store waited for the needed part to arrive.

12 hours without my computer. Doesn't sound like that big of a deal, right?

You know, the funny thing is my phone has access to my e-mail, facebook and twitter... so there was no real lack of connection. Therefore, why the heck did I feel lost and alone? (Ok, that might be a bit of an exaggeration... MAYBE.)

It's really sad. My phone died about 2 hours ago because of my extensive use of it... my attempts to feel connected. It will be interesting to see how I do on the cruise. It's not like I haven't been on one before... I mean I spend 2 weeks in the freaking Sudanese desert... but for some reason, it seems like it's gotten harder. I blame the blackberry. Crackberry is right!
