6 Degrees Of Alec

December 15th, 2011 | Exercise

I suppose Ed read my post about wishing for an iPhone, because I received one as an early Christmas gift. Lucky me, I spent a good part of yesterday (thus, no post) playing with it and trying to become familiar with all of the apps and thingamajigs. This is my very first “smartphone” so I’m definitely an inexperienced user. I’ve discovered that the free apps are the ones I will utilize the most, and who knows perhaps one day Baby Boomer Way and Running With Wrinkles will have their very own! My love of inanimate objects may be somewhat of an illness, however it’s fun at my age to still want to broaden my horizons. This quest that I have to gain more knowledge will only better my brain and keep it active which is a perfect step in combating and developing Alzheimer’s disease. So, here is where my 6 degrees of separation with Alec Baldwin comes into play (pun intended). I found “Words With Friends” on my iPhone and began playing it and discovered what all of the hubbub was about. I immediately became addicted and now understand why he didn’t want to give up playing this obsessive interaction with other virtual friends on his airline flight. Alec, I do feel a connection with you and if I was waiting for a plane to take off with the lingering downtime and persistent taxiing I too would look for something to occupy my mind and keep it from being dormant. I know I’m being redundant but thanks again Alec for opening my eyes and mind to a new-found fascination and for being a friend on my “Words With Friends” app, maybe someday it will be you I’m competing against! Keep healthy and fit by enlightening your mind.

P.S. I was kicking some butt with my virtual friend Jessica.
