I'm Not Too Sure About This.....

My sweet children have discovered Skype . The Big Boy was home this weekend, visiting with his friend-that-is-a-girl via Skype.
"You mean we can talk to YOU that way?" they asked their big brother with hopeful excitement.

"Yes, if you get an account."

Thanks, Big Bro.

Really, it isn't so bad as long as I never go near the computer when it is on.

Why?

Well, if you have used Skype, you know the first thing that happens is a flash of "what YOU look like".

Having just crawled out of bed this morning, sipping on my first cup of coffee after a very long night being up with Thing 2, I wasn't prepared. In fact I was truly scared. I thought, "Who the heck is THAT?" Then I realized. Then I started researching surgeons.

Oh, dear. Twitter, texting, calling...all that is great. Because you can't see me! Skype? I don't know if all the makeup in the world will make that tolerable.
