Yesterday night I was feeling a wee bit under the weather. I bought some pork chops, made some mash potatoes and gravy, and then retired the meal with some Ovaltine.
I suppose my first computer interaction started with my microwave. I heated up my Ovaltine. I then eventually turned on my laptop (which is when I saw this assignment). I checked my email, this assignment, and watched some South Park online. My cell phone started buzzing halfway through the episode. I sent some texts to friends telling them my liver was inflamed and couldn't go out. I turned off my cell after that which was really refreshing. My roommate was playing FIFA to which I started play as well (to do some practicum posting). I played for about...all night. I sent messages/ voice chatted with some of my friends online. My roommate and I switched off because we were playing head to head matches online. While he was playing I spent some time syncing up my mp3 player. Then I suppose the last computerized object I interacted with was my alarm clock and cell phone before I went to bed.
Had I not been able to interact with these computer devices, I probably would have gone out with my friends and felt tired again toy. I guess I've realized that some computer devices make me stay in a the weekends. I suppose I could always read a book... HA!

I am envious that computing devices have the potential to keep you in on the weekend. Gosh, I use them excessively (or so I'm realizing from our final blog assignment) yet I don't think they could keep me in on a Saturday night... Nor would an inflamed liver or a 10-12 page paper I have due tomorrow & am yet to start. Maybe I should attempt to enhance my relationship with them beyond microwaving every meal I eat & checking my facebook every 10 minutes while writing that paper. Furthermore, your post has inspired me to attempt this, even though I just don't see it happening, aaaand to expand my cooking skills. Pork chops? I'm a vegetarian, but fancy!
