3rd January 2014, Cozumel, Mexico
I still buy DVD's. I have only just learned the beauty of downloading music electronically instead of buying CD's. I have no idea what Spotify does. Nor have I completely figured out how to work Skype.
My computer until recently only showed half pages for a year because I had zoomed in by mistake and could not figure out how to zoom it back out again - I resolved this by buying a computer with a bigger screen. And on that one I can't get into the internet without going via Ebay.
In other words, applying myself to 2014 gizmos is not something that comes naturally to me. So my decision to go and get an iPad was a big one.
I did make the attempt to go to the actual Apple store (via the shoe section at Liberty). It took me approximately five minutes to get the first sales person to give up on me and the second outlasted him by one minute. Why is it so hard for technical people to speak plain English? I left the store with no iPad, but I did get some awesome bunny shaped headphones. Score.
Thankfully, the people around me do grasp the concept of modern technology. And they bore easily. So thanks to one of my lovely girls at work, I am now writing this on something as modern, sophisticated and grown up as an iPad. With pink bunny ears.
