Look who finally learned the computer. Dad set me up email ACCOUNT AND ALSO SHOWED ME HOW TO GO ONLINE.I DON’T KNOW WHY EVERYTHING IS SUDDENLY WRITING BIG LIKE THIS, SO JUST IGNORE IT. SO HOW WAS THE CONCERT YOU WENT TO WITH FRIENDS/ CALL ME SOON. THIS WRITING IS WEIRD SORRY, LOVE MOM.

Switching my mother from dial-up AOL to broadband and a Gmail account was almost Sisyphean. I still don’t think she has wrapped her head around the idea of the existence of the internet. Multiple windows on the screen blows her mind enough to have me on the phone for an hour listening to her verbally lamblasting the physics of it all. And she shows no interest in learning it because she has a daughter who is 24 and lives within an hour of her.
