If you missed the whole point of yesterday's spur-of-the-moment, lying-on-the-bed post, this is it:
I watched my husband come into the bedroom, take off his socks, put on a clean pair, then go searching for his slippers. They were on the mat on my side of the bed (which is next to the sliding door to the west deck) so on his way to the slippers, he used his socks to "mop" the muddy paw prints left by Abby in the middle of the night.
Well, at least he's a good cook.
So I have discovered that the whole point and purpose of a tablet or smart phone is social media. That's why you only get a space big enough for writing a couple of lines.
Not ideal for a writer like me who takes four or five lines just to warm up.
I keep thinking about setting up a FB or Twitter account under my official writing name but without a book to promote, and with the freelance writing career on sabbitical, I don't see any point. I watch the commercials for these tablets and see all the things it's possible to do with them but now I see that it's all App and WiFi related; there are no internal programs like Word or Photoshop that you can work with off-line.
Maybe there's some new, still-obscure social media site I can join for practice. I hear China is launching one...
