13 reasons you know you are living in 2006:

mom on cell phone1. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.

2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.

3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of three.

4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.

5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.

6 You accidentally enter your pin on the microwave.


7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.

8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.

9. You don't remember anyone's phone number any more - they are all keyed into your mobile.

coffee and cellphone

10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.

11. If you get up in the middle of the night to pee, you check your email before going back to bed.

12. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. = )

13. You make phone calls from home and accidentally dial "9" to get an outside line.

  • I love this list! What a hoot! My grandmother called me the other day and expressed frustration with commercials on television. "It seems if I don't have a computer, I can't get more information. What happened to phoning people?" I just said, "Uh-huh...uh-huh..." because I was scheduling my recurring morning shower in my PDA.

  • Well, aside from the fact that I finally ditched the cell phone (too many people calling me, dammit!), have no problem remembering numbers (speed dial? I don't need no steenking speed dial), don't have a person working at a desk next to me, can carry my own damned groceries and only use the automatic settings for "beverage" and "popcorn" and "defrost" on the microwave, that's pretty much in line with my 21st Century lifestyle. ;-)

  • #11 is definately me! Of course you'd need to expand it to: Everytime you pass the computer... :)

  • Comment by: Chelle on September 28, 2006 07:21 PM

  • There are real cards??? Next you're gonna tell me people play bingo on paper with chips and that they make real jigsaw puzzles!!! I've turned around for my cell many times and don't even have a land-line phone. Great 13!
  • Comment by: Danielle on September 28, 2006 07:38 PM

  • Ha! That list is so me! I've been known to check my email in the middle of the night and I've called my boyfriend from outside to help carry in groceries. LOL Happy TT!
