No, I’m not talking about cereal, or even cooking tips today – my monitor died. I was very fortunate to be home at the time, and while it made some exciting noise, nothing caught on fire (which I HAVE seen happen).

I can’t tell you how stressing it was – the things we take for granted, huh? I was only a little over four hours without Internet contact… and I was going totally bonkers! Fortunately my super-groovy-neato-cool brother had an extra monitor, and my totally awesome Mom & Papa dropped it off on my doorstep. As you can tell, I’m back up and running.

There are a lot of you who visit me each day through this site – and I totally love seeing you here. I just wish you would write to ME once in a while….

This technical glitch made me remember just how important the ability to communicate really is. I’d really like it to go both ways.
