A dear friend of mine always begins her birthday greetings with this expression. Funny how removing one letter from “March fourth” should bring such a smile to my face, but it does. Therefore, I march forth each new year that, for me, begins on March 4th. I now have 50 of them (years) tucked away in the nooks and crannies of my mind and soul and heart, and I look forward (forth?) to a whole lot more. Earlier this year, Nancy White shared a beautiful celebration of numbers in celebration of turning 50. Now I can do the same. I find this parade of numbers fascinating. I see so much variety and so many stories. This is not even over-analyzing the film. The variety and stories – the depth – are there in a flash. It awakens my curiosity. Who are we, the many-numbered inhabitants of this planet? Don’t worry…

Despite the technical challenges, it really is impressive how we could sit on opposite sides of the globe and carry on a discussion. Amazing stuff, technology. I learned how talking is so different from writing. Doh! you say? Well, once the words…
2 CommentsYes, I think I am in love… with a pc! (Only a geek could write something like that.) I’ve been reading about the new Asus Eee PC, and think: could this be the one for me? Could this solve a desire to have an electronic device for writing that is lightweight and easy to carry around? I love all my paper notebooks, and I won’t throw those out. However, sometimes, just sometimes, it would be nice to have a portable electronic device. Because I have a pc already, I am reluctant to invest in a laptop as well. It strikes me as not financially sensible, as well as something else to keep synchronized and updated. Smartphones look cool, but everything seems so tiny. The thought of typing out a longer email or document with the use of a pointer tool gives me the shudders. I want a keyboard for that…
