Skype

Okay, Skype is nothing new, but it's new to me. I know I must sound like a big goober because I did not get it until yesterday. It was all just so exciting. I mean, for heaven sake's my Mom has even had Skype for some time already. I just never saw any need for a webcam. And while my new laptop came with a built in camera, I've never even known how to use it until yesterday. I wasn't making any instruction videos like my girl Iris...which I think is totally cool BTW. I didn't have some kind of love interest on the other side of the world, and although I did have some family using Skype, I lacked to see the benefits of it...until yesterday.

Leonard laughed at me because after my Skype experience I kept saying just how neat and exciting it was. He looked at me like I was a moron. He uses Skype all the time for work. But for me, yesterday was an important day in one of my nephew's lives. Through Skype I was able to be a part of his excitment from 2 states away.

Congratulations Joshua, and thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your day!

Awesome!

P.S. If it's any consolation, you're still light years ahead of me. I haven't been on Skype either (or Facebook or Twitter).

Well hells bells! I have a MAC & know that's what they have so I could've been there too?!!! You'll have to come by & TEACH me a thing or two now that you're a TECHIE! I'm impressed & very excited for you.

That really does sound AWESOME to be able to see Joshua all the way in his home & see the whole incredible moment as it was happening. I'm so proud of him too & you my dear friend Lizzie are just a delight in all of our lives!
