Now onto the waves.. no we are not going to the beach.. I could only wish :-). However, last night Tim and I sat around and tried to figure out Google Wave. We got invites last night from a friend of mine. As we sat there watching videos and trying to get it to do cool things I felt old. It was so different than anything else I had worked with. I couldn't quite wrap my mind around how it worked.
Then it hit me at some point Sammy will understand technology better than me. I will become my parents. Now don't get me wrong my parents are pretty technical for the average person in their generation. However, when Tim and I explain the way something new works it I am sure is mind boggling for them.
I am sure eventually I will understand Google Wave and the best ways to use it. How to think differently about the way internet communication can work. But someday there will be something new that I just don't understand and Sammy will be the expert :-P

oh, it was just a mouse...Ewww though! and yes technology scares me....I mean I love it dearly and I try to keep up...but Lauren will surely pass me over soon!
Aw, Remy is SOOO cute! Maybe he just wanted to go inside & cook something for you! :)
Technology is ever changing, and it scares me too that someday I will be the "dummy" and my son will be explaining things to me while rolling his eyes!
I consider myself pretty tech savvy; however, I think Connor has already surpassed me and he is only 6! SCARY to think how Kendall will be someday!!!
i totally agree that our kiddos are going to be much more advanced that we are!!
Eek, a mouse!! Haha! I would have screamed...I wonder why we do that? They're so tiny!
I've heard about Google Wave...and I so understand what you mean about just feeling "old" and not getting it right away.
the google wave thing...i think i am not going to like it. maybe just a little too "fluid" for me you know?
but i guess i need to keep an open mind...
I would agree that your parents are pretty techie for being 50+, remember I was the one that thought of electricity that didn't need a wire---lol--MOM
