My Computer has caused Brain Over Load

My life used to be so so simple...till My Computer caused Brain Over Load. It all started back in 1981 when I decided to get a degree as a computer programmer. Back then I was learning Cobal, Fortran and Assembler computer languages. What can I say I'm old. Anyway, I remember my mind being pushed and pulled every which way as I tried to do my homework assignments. I figured I was having a hard time because I was a dizzy blond. I had no idea what the future would bring.

Fast forward to December 2008 ...I never did become a computer programmer I became a real estate agent. Long story don't ask. However, I have been able to use my computer background a lot as a real estate agent. I also realized I am not only a dizzy blond but have ADD, Menopause brain fog, CRS (can't remember stuff) and now brain over load thanks to my computer.

So how did my simple life get too this point? Well let me just say I am using things daily that were not even around in 1981. Things like:

• two 22" flat screen monitors that are full color not monochrome
• a desk top computer and to think we laughed at the thought of a computer in every home
  
• I'm using a wireless mouse (I hate real ones) and wireless keyboard - I hated typing class
• daily I use Google to find things I need to know about instead of using a stack of Encyclopedia's
• my monitor has an IGoogle on it to keep me organized - thanks to Missy Caulk
• I use a site called Active Rain to write a thing called a Blog - so long diary
• better yet to see what other Bloggers post I use RSS feeds - thanks Brad Anderson looks like my brain
• oh yea my name has changed to @CindyKnight because I tweet things on Twitter - thanks Kim Wood
• I use things like PDF's, e-fax and e-mail - and use the copier, fax machine and mailman less
• the agents at the office call me to fix the Network - not ABC, CBS or NBC either
• our websites are worked on by me only now I use HTML, CSS and Java - not coffee
• when I want to laugh I check out Videos on YouTube and they are not beta or VHS
  
• I belong to FaceBook and LinkedIn - Social Networks and I don't leave the house
• then there's the journal on my desk full of 14 pages of passwords

So much for a simple life...but honestly I Love It!!!  As Roger a fellow blogger said it we are Addicted.
