trans-global communication

it's so amazing what technology can do! i just got off skype with the hubby. he's in taiwan and it's friday morning for him. and i'm in south carolina and it's thursday night for me. it seems like we're worlds away, but yet we could sit down and have a conversation...

well, a quasi conversation. for whatever reason, maybe the microphone on his computer is broken, but we can't get it so i can hear him talking. so we're able to look at each other and he's able to hear me. but i can't hear him. i think it's so funny because if anyone knows baldman you know that he likes to talk and it's sometimes hard to get a word in edgewise. so to have the ability to speak without him chiming in is quite unusual! the only problem is i like to hear him talk. and i have trouble thinking of things to say.

so we resorted to me talking and him text chatting me via skype. that worked fairly well. in any case, i enjoyed seeing his face and cracking a few jokes.
