Today is a mobile post.
I am writing today’s post using my mobile phone, the T-Mobile MDA. Why? Because I find myself unable to comprehend why anyone would ever find typing something more involved than ‘c u l8r’ on this stupid keyboard convenient. I mean honestly, my thumbs are cramping up already and I’m not even done with the first damn paragraph!
Okay, now I’m done. Phew!
You know, just the fact that I can surf the web on this thing, kinda-sorta, IS kind of cool… in a Geeky-nerdy way. But what’s NOT cool is how many teeny-tiny buttons I have to press with my thumbs just to make a stupid comma or exclamation point! And don’t get me started on the things missing from this key… I mean THUMBboard. Things like brackets and quotation marks are nowhere to be found, which makes it impossible for me to add emphasis to my words here except by making them ALL CAPS. Which makes it look like I’m SHOUTING when all I really wanted to do was italicize ‘thumb’ in THUMBboard to make a subtle joke.
Yeah, that’s right, ‘subtle’. Like an elephant farting in a broom closet.
Anywaste, my main point here is that using this mobile method of updating my site blows. My thumbs hurt, this tiny screen is causing my eyes to tear up and the old woman sitting next to me won’t stop looking over my shoulder and asking me why my pillbox has a tv screen.
She also keeps asking me to change the channel to ‘Days of Our Lives’.
If you dont like your fancy, expensive toys, I’ll take it. My crumbs will push those buttons just fine.. besides.. youre old PDA’s batteries wont charge anymore.. I guess it doesnt like hot butter.
Oh, honey. You are the uber-geek. I bow before you (as, even w/ summer $$, I cannot afford a gadget as luminious as that).
