My Thoughts:
This reminds me. Why is it with all these advanced technological gadgets created to make life simpler, I'm busier than ever?

I want something to make life simpler! Slowing down HAS helped. Lily has that smile on that is so contagious....
Oh Michael, that's because they make gadgets for everything now and you have to carry them all around and use them and recharge them abd replace them when something new and better and more expensive comes along.
It's a plot, I tell ya!
So, I'm taking Lily's advice and

This is SO true. You're right. Every time a new gadget comes out we get busier and busier. I always have to remind myself that I DON'T have to answer that text message or email right away. And I DON'T have to take that phone call if I don't want to.
IT CAN WAIT!
Sometimes I wish there were no cellphones, so we could enjoy actually living life.
I hear yah, I am the some its as if I am plugged in 24 hours non-stop, my blackberry vibrates even when I am sleeping. Hmmmm...
I am unplugging and turning everything off at night.
Michael Rivers, Unplugged.
everyone is so much busier now and absorbing so much information quickly, that fast acting relief gets tougher and tougher to get!
thanks for posting this.
love lilly - miss seeing her
I know, right?! For as "easy" as all this technology is supposed to make our lives . . . It's as hectic as ever! LoL Hope you're doing well. :)
Oh Michael, so very true :)
Know what you mean Michael.
No way have tech advances resulted in time saving (sadly) and paper & pens still can't do without them ! :)
I so love Lily Tomlin. So smart and so funny!
hmmmm....some good profound advice there in that humor.
Because if you didn't have all those technologies you wouldn't be able to do as much =) so the more efficient you become the more you take on... and you're ridiculously good looking.
How very true!
Good point!
god, I know. I'm so sick of having to learn new technological crap. I wish my husband was tech-savvy.
Awesome quote! And yeah all these gadgets have definitely made things more complex.
She's right! I love her
I love Lily Tomlin. So funny and so smart.
I try to keep technology about making my life easier, not letting it run my life. I can let a phone ring. Even a cell phone. I have a friend who will try me on my land line, and if I don't answer, she'll call me right away on my cell. Just to say something that can wait. Makes me crazy.
I have friends who think that gay men are more technologically advanced than straight men, or at least early adopters. Any thoughts on that, anyone?
