Living in 2009

By
Real Estate Agent with NPDodge Real Estate

YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2009 when..
1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.
2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.
3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.
4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you..
5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.
6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.
7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.
8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.
10.. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.
11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. : )
12. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.
13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message...
14. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.
15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list.
AND NOW U R LAUGHING AT YOURSELF

Oh how true. Just imagine where we will be in the next 10 - 20 years...this will probably seem so archaic to everyone! Yes...I had to look back to notice that there was no #9...can use that I'm blonde, as an excuse?

Nice list, most applies to me. How about you walk out the door with your cordless phone and don't notice it until you're 100 yards from your home and the signal dies. That applies too!

Hi Judy - Times certainly have changed.  I often wonder what my life would have been had I had a computer as a youngster.  I remember party lines and three digit phone numbers.  lol
