The only time I really become discouraged is when I think of all the things I would like to do and the little time I have in which to do them. --Thomas Edison

Middle (Aged) Management
Just another way we've become the Sandwich Generation. . .
This is perfect! Expect to see it on my blog someday soon....
E-mail is such a wonderful means of communication for those of us who love language and communicate better when we have time to think. It has most of the advantages of postal mail but is much faster.
Texting has its place, but in my world that place is small and limited. Since my cell phone doesn't do e-mail, I like texts when I'm away from home because you can send a message without (needing to) interrupt the recipient. But even with a full keyboard (which my phone doesn't have), you still have to peck out a message one letter at a time, leading to incomplete sentences, lack of punctuation, and abbreviations, which are like fingernails on a blackboard to me. U C?
Does using the word "blackboard" reveal my age, also?
