Luddite: a person who opposes change or progress through technology (see Dictionary.com for a ton of official definitions).
I do not oppose change purposefully. I just find myself in the wake of technological innovation, which makes me cranky.
Imagine my shock and awe, then, that the past year has launched me into the heart of the 2000s. My cell phone has voicemail (sure was hard to know who called before this advancement), my camera uses no film (but how to move the pictures from my camera to the computer?), and my iPod is chock-full of good stuff (but down with the Man, Apple Inc.). Oh, and I finally got cable (wow, TiVo — who knew?!).
You might wonder: why does this person have a blog? Let’s call this an e-Xperiment for my class at Johns Hopkins. What started as a mandatory project, though, has become a huge thrill. I love to tell you what I’m thinking. I love it even more when you tell me what you’re thinking.
Before you go, other things that I love: my family, my friends, Rosie and Daisy (my American Eskimos; I’ll post pictures as soon as I figure out how), Cooper and Indy (dog nephew and niece, respectively), Friends reruns (don’t be surprised if I mention these and their important applications to real life), cooking, dancing, 80s music, and reading.
Oh, and my digital camera. Damn.
