I had a dream last night about playing Words With Friends on an iPad. While I love Words... and I want an iPad, the dream contained all my anxieties about both. I played a 99 point word and handed the iPad over to my friend to show her, and she promptly drew her fingernails over the screen, scratching the surface and resetting the game. At least there was no violence towards TEA and no one was yelling at me.
But...
I do covet the iPad. Every time I run into the big box store that is across the street, I wander over and look at them, wanting it and completely unable to justify the expense. One of the issues is that there is no WiFi at my brother's house. He doesn't like it or believe in it. (I am not going to try to explain it to y'all or him, I just live with it but...) Therefore, in addition to the iPad, I would have to get an Wireless AP and the one that I like is expensive as well.
That is a grand that I cannot justify spending...which doesn't mean that I still don't covet.

I have to thank the Green Bay Packers.
They prevented what I feared.
A Superbowl between the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles. I have an (admittedly) irrational hatred of both teams and both cities and watching a sporting event where one of them would be guaranteed happiness would be devestating...or just irksome.

I heard Young MC's "Bust A Move" yesterday and it made me smile with a memory of a summer day and a lot of laughter.
