Will this still work? Stuck at work until 8 pm...

[EDIT: Works mostly. No way to do a carriage return on my cheap phone, it seems.]

I just don't use my phone.. Maybe I'm crochety and old-fashioned?

Nah, that would be writing letters on sheets of paper with a fountain pen and sending them through the mail using real stamps. (Which I also do.)

Since I don't own a laptop with wireless internet or whatever, I find it rather convenient that when I go away from home for a few days as I'm about to do, I can still post to LJ and read my mail using my $20 cell phone. No, you don't write the great American novel that way, but you can get some stuff down. XD

Loud and clear. We can read you now. ^_^

I wasn't sure whether e-mail posts still worked if you weren't a paid subscriber. Apparently they do.

However, the ability to put mood, music, location, and such into it depends on the ability to send a hard carriage return at the end of a line. My phone apparently won't do that. ;p

You worry to much.

Hmm. We had a farrier visit yesterday. Tess has sharp hooves.

It seems to work. :)

Laptops are handy, but yes. I wouldn't invest in one just to post on LJ.
Fortunately I already have one, thanks to my loving partner. :P
He got it for mt for those long periods in hospital.

I think I might be getting a better phone eventually, so I could browse stuff and... IRC! :D

I've balked at laptops because they are soooo expensive and from all the complaints I hear, not too reliable. I have several old ones that are good for lots of stuff but doing modern internet connections isn't their strong point. One is a NEC Pentium that does have a color display and Windows 98 but it's slow as molasses and has neither wireless nor USB. That's the newest one, too. A little Compaq Aero notebook computer is a lightweight and has a monochrome display. But it's a '486 processor with 8MB memory and a 40MB drive, so Windows 3.1 is the upper limit for it. The one I actually like to use is an old TRS-80 Model 100. Great for writing, worthless for the internet. ;D But the keyboard is actually pleasant. I hate most laptop keyboards.

You haven't said much about your health lately. I hope you're feeling better these days.

The new super portable Asus Laptops might be more your thing :) Very light and long battery life, designed for moderate computing power and maximum portability :)

But they're designed for (ugh) Windoze.
