I know that scripture says we are "not of this world." The other night, two teenagers reminded me that I'm REALLY NOT of this world...
While attending the Mr. R. High School contest, I had to leave for a moment. Two teenage boys came out right after me. They said, "Are we going to be able to get back in?" I tried the door and told them that if we shut it gently, we'd be fine.
Right after they headed off to the bathroom, two teen girls came out. They let the door go harder, but I thought, "Surely they would not lock you out when you have no choice but to go OUTSIDE the auditorium to the bathroom." So, off I went.
When I returned, the two girls were just ahead of me. They tried the door and sure enough, it was locked.
My first thought: "We'll wait until we hear clapping then knock to get someone to let us in...." I figured at the most it'd be five minutes.
Their first thought: "Don't worry, we'll text our friend who is inside and she'll come open it for us."
And we were in that door in 45 seconds flat!
Nope. I am NOT OF THIS WORLD! Or at least THEIR world!

Isn't technology great!! Sometimes we get aggravated when we hear phones ring all of the time but when you really need them they are great!
Thanks for stopping by. We got tons of snow here. It is really pretty coming down but that is about it. We have to go out and shovel soon and find the car!! Smile.

Technology is scary.
The robots are going to take over the world. Down with AI!
(I'm so totally kidding, BTW....)
haha! I wouldn't have even thought to do that and I own a cell phone. That's too funny!
That is so funny! I have never even sent a text message, so I would have been knocking! :)
You and me both!!! There are times when I absolutely would love to be in their world...and other times, well, not so much ;)
I'm a total antique, I'm lucky to even have a cell phone.
