We were watching TV.. quietly, and suddenly it says: Well if you have any questions just ask.. or some such shit … Lord I am going to kill Peter. LOL tim thought it was hysterical … I gave him my best glare. he just kissed me and said I'm an old grouch. Hmmm, less of the old please, boy.

I asked "her" the other day to tell me what's on the news, and she brought up FOXNews' internet livestream for me. I know it only did that because somedays I will turn FOXNews on for background noise while I'm doing school work. The thing that made me turn off the Alexa "hands-free" was when my Uncle was talking to my Cousin about picking up a new car battery charger, and I started getting email and "suggested" products on my Amazon dashboard for battery chargers. I'm way not into that technology yet - I don't even have a smartphone - but it strikes me that the results could be interesting inasmuch as I talk to myself all the time. 🙄 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s creepy af... I’ve gone to bed early. Just really tired. Part travel sickness meds, part all the travel anxiety I had earlier, probably. Also, I haven’t got my landlegs back properly yet, lol! Feel like the floor’s rocking, and I haven’t had a drop of alcohol. I’ve read a comic book. Now I think I’ll probably watch something on Netflix. Good WiFi here. Hope you’re all well!
