Episode 132

1. Who is the last person who you spoke to by telephone?

I called Sparky on the way home from the store yesterday after I found a message from him on my (turned off) phone.

2. Who is the last person you spoke to online?

The last (non-bulk) email I have read is from Amy. I get a couple of bb's and listserves in my mailbox, so I'm not counting those). And, though I haven't checked since Friday at about 5, I'm sure I've gotten several emails at work. I'm not counting those either.

3. Which of the two have you seen more in person?

Well, I live with Sparky, so I guess I'll have to go with him! :-)

4. Take the quiz: How is your self-esteem?

You Have Low Self Esteem 20% of the Time

Which can be translated to mean, you have high self-esteem and a healthy sense of self worth. You believe in yourself, and you know how to be the real you. You love yourself, imperfections and all.

How is Your Self Esteem?

I know I took this before, but I can't find the original result. I think it's relatively accurate, for now.

5. What is the longest period of time you have gone without internet service since you became a "regular user?"

I've been online 'regularly' since about 1990. We've had internet access at home all along, because we got spoiled early. Until recently, however, we never used the Internet on vacation, except when Sparky was in second grade and was supposed to send in daily reports for a school assignment when we took him to Greece/Germany/England for two weeks. It was interesting trying to find an Internet cafe in Athens in early 2001. Interesting, but possible.

Anyway, I'd say at most three weeks.

6. How much did the lack of internet availability bother you?

Didn't used to bother me at all. I'm not sure I feel the same way now with wireless capabilities everywhere...!
