So my husband’s in IT.  Well actually, he’s an IT Director.  I’m proud of him.  But that’s not the point of this one.

No the point of this one is technology.  I just bought a lovely calendar to go in my purse, but then I had to buy a bigger purse to accommodate said calendar.  That’s…. embarrassing.  BUT you moms know what I’m talking about here with the calendar – pediatrician appointments, eye doctor appointments, dentist appointments, hair cuts, school activities – I need one honkin’ calendar!

I visited Chad at work the other day, and we’re having dinner with one of his co-workers.  I pulled out my calendar to figure out when we can, and the mocking began.  Mind you, there are now TWO IT Directors in the room, with their big Droids, and 4 computers on each desk.  It got a little excessive.  I told them (in my best Ada ‘tude) that I didn’t have to pay a monthly fee for a data plan with my calendar, and I gave Chad the “you better knock it off” look.  With love and respect of course.

I don’t need a map (I have a GPS in the car), a baseball game, trivia games, 24-7 access to the internet, I just need a phone and a calendar, and I’m fine with those being 2 separate items in my new awesome green purse.
