If I had a Facebook page...

... here would be my two latest status updates:
Yesterday I got a drink from the FUTURE!
You see, technology is taking over everything, including soda fountain dispensers in restaurants.  (This will also tell you how much we eat out.  Read: NEVER.)  I took the kids to Moe's on a whim to get some kinda-decent Mexican food that was not cooked by me.  When I walked over to where the drink dispenser usually was, I found myself confused.  There was a tiny (comparably) red Coke machine that looked like it would give you only ice.  Only upon inspection did I realize that it was a touch-screen, and that it could basically deliver on any drink your heart could conjure.

Lemonade?  Yes please!  Which flavor?  Orange, grape, raspberry, strawberry, lime...?

When it delivered a perfectly balanced strawberry lemonade, I wanted to hug it.

Shaelyn called it an iPad that gives you drinks.

I contributed to a Presidential campaign for the first time.
I have never financially supported a candidate, but Mitt just had the perfect sticker for my car.  (Whoops, my policy to keep my blog politics-free just went right out the window...)


Can I add Ann Romney to my short list of heroes?  Right now, that list only includes Marjorie Hinckley and, of course, Julie Beck.  But pretty soon it might include a classy First Lady.  And I'm not talking about the one who likes to show off her toned arms.

I really hope when I'm a grandma, I can have a birthday video like this made for me.
