I’m one of those who hates having to compute my lights on. What the hell is wrong with simply flicking a switch? UP for on. DOWN for off. Boom! Done.

I do NOT want to have to fuss with a lot of choices and variables. I do NOT want to be dependent on a lot of gadgets. I don’t give a rat’s ass how many degrees of brightness or mood lighting or whatever molecularly slight variations of color it is. Fuck it! Turn it ON. Or turn it OFF. Period!

My husband is gadget-obsessed. I guess the one drawback for him is having to deal with a Luddite every day. Heaven to him is either everything set up on voice-command or thousands of buttons and touch pads with hundreds of thousands of options and choices and degrees of variation. But if I had to live in his idea of a modern home, I’d have a house I couldn’t live in, because I wouldn’t be able to make anything work.

If any, that is.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
