Well I have really done it now!  I was a very committed and responsible person, and I have been taken over by an addiction!  An addiction so strong – that I am drawn to it every morning and each night.  Now, I cannot do simple errands without taking my ‘drug of choice’ with me.  That’s right folks – email!  And I get my fix by using my new toy the "Crackberry". 

I make this joke, because we all know how addicting e-mail is, and it is quite humorous to me to see people walking the streets, with the wireless blue tooth in their ear, (I thought for the longest time people were talking to themselves) but now we cannot leave our homes without our wireless voice and data plans!  We literally have phones attached to our ears – e-mails in our palms and work on the brain!!  The Treo, the Sidekick, the Nokia, and my device – the Crackberry also known as the Blackberry – have us chatting and engrossed in work, perhaps more than we care to. 

I love my little device, but I think it is time I set some ground rules before I have to go into Rehab!  That would be like Grandma’s Cottage – where there is no wireless signals for miles…might just have to book myself such a vacation!

All my best to you, wish me luck (tongue firmly planted in cheek)!
