Yes, I am pretty sure I made up the word "primitivity". But the reason I've decided it's time to go back to it is because, while I am most grateful for all the technological gifts I received today, they are so frustrating!
I got a Nook Tablet. Very nice, I'm excited to use it. But, I can't get past step 4 of the set-up because we recently changed from Time Warner Cable as our internet provider to North State, always out to save a buck. NS installed a new wireless router, and they set it up for us. However they failed to share the password with me. We haven't needed it to log into the laptop nor our smart phones. So, while I'd love to be typing this from the Nook right now, I'm waiting on an email response from North State and/or Nook Customer Support. What. The. Heck.
Secondly, we got D a new flat screen TV for her room. The girl has always had a TV in her room since she was a toddler so now she can't go to sleep without the sound. Well, recently, again to save a buck, we changed from Time Warner Cable to Direct TV. So now I can't figure out how to set up her TV. I am usually very good about such things but not this time. So dear Mr. Howerton is gonna have to come hook it up for her. Thankfully he's already offered to do just that.
So yeah, primitivity is the way to go because the only thing that's working from Christmas is my paper books, and D's candles. Let's go back, back to the basics of life!
Besides, B is watching a Call of the Wildman a.k.a. Turtle-Man, which shows a severely crazy little man in the hills of Kentucky who captures and releases wild animals for folks. He is a nut! They are a bit TOO primitive in the hills of Kentucky so I guess I don't want to go TOO far back!
