Internet Rants & Ribbons

Ah Wednesday's......the one day of the week where i have no clue what to do with myself. so i guess i'll blog about the internet. it can be a little weird blogging you never know if anyone reads it...i keep telling my friends to check it out so that they can help me spread the word on mitochondrial disease......but they only seem to be liking the like page on face book and not checking out the blog. on that like page in the info i put both the site and the email i use for the blog but i never know who looks at it...they say the internet makes us able to connect with each other more. but we can't tell if someone is being sarcastic or funny so we could take things meant to be funny the wrong way. and when someone reacts to something they have to type it out with a "lol" or a "=)" emote. we can't see the other persons face...but then again they half solved that problem too.

they invented the web cam...sure we see the other person but then the connection could be bad or if the lighting is in a weird spot the entire screen goes basically black and you can't see much of the other person. or the internet could have a cutout and the call goes dead completely...it can be hard to keep connected...i doubt we have any more than 15 friends that we see on a regular basis out side of work or the family. the internet has basically made us virtual shut ins...we can stay in the house in our pj's for ever...we can know do jobs, shopping, school, bills, and basically everything you can do out of the house you can now do in. i guess that's okay for people who are allergic to the sun or air, but what about you...would you rather see everything through the internet or go and do it yourself?

Okay that has been bugging me forever...........had to get that outta the way. So if you happen to be reading this blog....let me know by responding to what I say below so I know I'm not crazy for talking to an empty wall.........okay well time to get to the mito portion of the blog.
