I don't know if it's an AGE thing, or what--- but my brain is constantly being taxed with learning new applications to use at work, with my music, creating art, and lots of other things.  Don't get me wrong--- I've definitely got the "want to" --- it's just that I can't keep up anymore...

Our brilliant web-savvy son is constantly finding new and better ways to do what we do (what DO we do???) and I want to be accomodating and learn the latest and best, but I think I am reaching the overload point.  After all, I AM over 50, and you know about those antique brain cells... I TRY, but by the time I get ONE thing down, there are 2 or 3 more apps to learn by yesterday!

I mean, I can even TWITTER with the best of 'em, but after spending hours figuring it out, I totally went a whole day and didn't twitter once.  I am sure the Twitter police will be rounding me up any minute.... Cause isn't the point of Twitter to tell people what you are doing and make clever remarks so they will all want to be your friend cause you sound cool???  I ONLY HAVE 2 friends, so I must not be clever OR cool.....yet. I am working on that.

And, by the way, I have discovered that not only am I addicted to cameras, I am also addicted to Email.....I heard that the average email takes 4 minutes of your time, so you can imagine how many minutes that adds up to be over a year!!!  I TRIED really hard to not email at all today, and I made it to about 9:15 a.m. --- It's sad to be that dependent on technology, to the point that you feel unloved and depressed if all you get in one day is work-related or SPAM. 

Are there 12-step groups for techno-addicts??? If not, guess I can GOOGLE IT!
