Computers

My roommate is at the kitchen counter on her laptop.
I am on the couch on my laptop.
We are not talking to each other.
I thought to myself, "If we weren't on our computers we'd probably be talking to each other right now."

Then I decided to ask her the question I was just thinking in my head.

"No." She said. "If I wasn't on the computer, I'd be in bed."

"Oh." I thought.

Well...so much for relationships.

Technology isn't always our friend, is it? It keeps us occupied, but not always in connection with other people. I'm amazed at how my kids will text a sibling or friend ... in the same room with them!

If you are the Colleen who visited Family Fountain and commented on the marriage poem, thank you.
