Local Town Idiot!?!

Just the other day I was using the computer trying to get an email from a Mary Jane Farm Girl when what? nothing.....nada...zilch...nothing. I had an important letter waiting for me; there was a note when I logged on but I couldn't get it.

I opened the mailbox and there IT was.....only IT was my letter I had sent!!!! omg I panicked I tried to hit the button again and again......still nothing..... Sooooooo, I did what any respectful mother would do in my situation I called in the troops....my kids. Acually, my youngest son, Dylan. "UMMMMM mom you have your mailbox blocked from reading your mail...see?!!" Well no, I didn't see . Please just push the correct buttons and let me read my mail.....

I remember when I was in elementary school and we took one of those tests that was suppose to test your IQ; I must have done really well, because ALL the teachers were talking about it. I know now-a-days that is a huge no-no but, I come from a small community where nothing much ever happens. Well, I always thought that was what all the big to do was about. Maybe it was the opposite! Yikes, maybe I was the lowest number in the school. Hummmmm, could it be? Maybe all of those A's were just pity grades. "Give her the good marks...she scored the lowest IQ in the third grade."

Well,computers do make me feel inferior. A machine that can do so much and be so helpful. I wish I could do as much. Multi-tasking at it's best. But my son tells me they are only as smart as their operators. So I guess I am going to have to learn not to push buttons willy nilly and hope that my computer stays as sharp as I want it to be . If not we will both be the local town idiots. Gosh I sure hope I don't let myself down!!!!!!!!!
