OK. I am really out of the loop, I see that now. Since when did Bijou leave? She was my first favorite and my first 3 photos in my fave pics. They are gone now! It's true, I lapsed in keeping up with her, last I saw she was in Thailand, and I didn't just want to put her on my friends list bcse I thought that was presumptuous.
I had mixed feelings about the archive. I thought, if a girl wants to go, then let her go! But I can't let her go. Man, I loved those pics. I always hoped for more from her.
oh well.
One reason why I haven't been on for a while is bcse my hands hurt, and these veins pop out when I am typing. I am watching my hands age and it doesn't feel very good.
So I take a break and play accordion or do mosaic. duh. I need some large motor activities.
And I ask again.
Is there some way for my computer to read people's journals to me? Don't I have that woman's voice in my ibook? can't she read stuff? That way I can still get other things done...is this still too far fetched to be a reality? I have been listening to old radio shows of Jean Shepherd. Damn funny.
K,I go soak my hands in arnica. And I am not even in the tech business. This is a strong deterrent from getting into it. Besides the fact that there aren't any jobs...
