Crackberry

At a previous place of employment I was issued a Blackberry. Within a matter of days I was addicted. This addiction lasted for a few years and then one day I had to go cold turkey.

Everything was fine for awhile until last week when I purchased a Blackberry to replace the phone that I lost post-Ike. I couldn't resist!

Once an addict, always an addict. I wonder if there is a 12 step program that I can join? Is there a Crackberry Anonymous group? Should I join Kaye Sedilla at Betty Ford?

What I have discovered is that I think I can blog using the Crackberry. If this post posts, then I know it works! Doubt that I can post pics or videos or use spellcheck. Maybe you will hear from me more often!

Oh! The possibilities.

In other news...
I made a quasi-surprise visit to la familia today. You see...

Pre-Ike they wanted me to come & visit to celebrate my b'day. Made some plans that didn't happen. So this past Thursday was Joe & Helen's 53rd Wedding Anniversary. Yes bois & gurrls, I said 53.

So there was a small luncheon planned today and I showed up in Ft Worth. It was something that I needed to do and I'm glad that I did. I had some other commitments for today but unfortunately they had to be shelved and I hope that I will be forgiven. I'm back in H-town on Sunday.

And guess who eating lunch in the same restaurant as me today? The one & only Bernadette Peters! OMG!

I knew that she was in Ft. Worth to perform this evening but I never expected to see her eating!

I SO wanted to talk to her. However, she was with someone and they had their food so I left her alone. I think I know where she is staying and I could have hung out in the hotel lobby and stalked her...

One last thing. Things are still a bit odd in Houston. Some of my peeps still don't have power.

Catch up with y'all later.

I have seen Bernadette Peters a few times in NYC. She is a HUGE dog lover - so you two would have had a lot in common.

it just amazing in this day and time that folks are still without power in one of the largest metro areas of this nation.

then you go out west and most folks have underground utl.

just seems that now is a good time to start working towards this for all of us who live in the hurricane prong coastal plains of la and tx

I'm impressed with your Blackberry acumen. Now you can post from anywhere at any time!

And what fun to see Bernadette! A colleague of mine went to London last week and had THREE celeb citings: Goldie Hawn and Kate Hudson at a show, Nicole Kidman one table away at her favorite restaurant (sorry, I can't remember which one), and one other celeb that I can't believe I forgot!

I never figured out how to post a mobile blog from the Blackberry. You're surprised, aren't you? ;-) Now that I have a blackjack, we'll have to see if I can figure that out... Your Bernadette sighting was awesome!

It's easy to get addicted to the Blackberry.
