I have been paying for my sins recently.
There have been a plethora of computer issues in our home recently and I have spent more than my fair share of time on the phone with technical support people whose dialects make understanding of tech-speak all the more difficult.
Today I was getting Queen B's computer rigged up for wireless internet communication.
I think Queen B is just a little intimidated by the idea of computer data beaming past her head while she sits at her keyboard. - I have to give her credit for her willingness to learn though - not all seventy-eight year old's go through withdraw if they can't e-mail daily.
With the help of a techno-geek on the other end of the phone line, we got Queen B streaming.
Queen B signed onto her e-mail account. For some reason the screen displays differently than it did when Queen B was using a DSL connection (don't ask me what DSL means - I have no idea - I only know it's different than wireless).
Queen B was a little put off the screen change and set about e-mailing with a certain trepidation.
Relax, I said, The worst that can happen is you'll turn off the power to all of Sussex County.
I'm sure she felt much better after that.
