At the late show to see The Great Gatsby by myself. There are 5 of us in the theater. This is strange. Been years since I’ve a) been to a movie alone and b) been to a late movie.

My Grandson soaking in some Great-Grandfather time with my Sweet Daddy. I am loving this trip! #generations

Remembering my boy…back when he was a boy
I find myself missing my grandmother this spring. She was very precious to me and ours was a rare and special relationship.
Yesterday, my brother-in-law came by to have Rocket Man look at his car. Something about a belt and/or struts. You know…car stuff.
Dan the Man pulled out an iPhone 5 and started complaining about it. It is a work phone and he didn’t want it.
Dan asked Rocket Man how to send a text message. {Rocket Man has an iPhone 4, also courtesy of his work…which happens to be the same company}
I looked up and saw 2 college graduates {from the same, small somewhat prestigious private college}, both mechanical engineers, with a combined 40+ years of engineering experience between them stumped by this extremely easy to use piece of technology.
They asked me how it worked. I smiled, took the phone and sent the text. I then told them that my Liberal Arts education occasionally pays off. They are wont to belittle any education that is not engineering or hard math oriented. I *might* have gleefully spouted off something about being trained to think and reason.
Then, I smiled and said I wished I had a picture of them with their heads bent over the phone. I’d caption it thusly: How many electrical engineer, rocket scientists does it take to send a text message??
They were not amused.
I’m still giggling :)
31 Days of Broken {things in my life that need to be fixed}
The rear door handle on my Jeep. All of the sudden on Wednesday, it ceased to work. Broken. Busted. Out of order.
Just added it to the list. Of broken things.
*sigh*

My tooth! This was my view this morning. I had the root canal in August and started the crown work today.
Nothing like a little Mr. Nose at 8AM followed by the 8 inch needle stuck in the roof of your mouth. Then the incessant drilling and drooling.
Not a fan of going to the dentist.

Notice the missing A? This is really a #firstworldissue but I dropped my iPad keyboard last summer. The A, Z and Q popped out. I retrieved the Z and the Q, but the A was elusive. I found it, eventually, after Kitty had ferociously engaged in mortal combat with the poor thing and chewed it to smitherenes. On my lengthy list of things to do is the directive to write a letter to the company who made the keyboard and see if they can spare a sister an A.
In the meantime, the typos can be amusing.
