holiday nothings

current selection | the bastards downstairs
feelin’ | relaxed

i dont know when this all happened, but all of a sudden my parents are technologically savvy. wtf? i went back to nj wednesday for the holidays and i find that my dad (in the last few weeks) ordered himself a new computer (complete with flat panel) and broadband connection (finally). this was all pretty surprising in and of itself because these people dont even have cell phones. but then my mom asks me to set up the old computer in my old room so she can continue playing her computer games. wtf? and then my dad whips out his new portable dvd player (with screen) to me and my sis for shits and giggles. wtf? then he tells me how hes shopping online for a new 5.0 megapixel digital cam and asked me to show him some of the new digital slrs from nikon and canon. wtf. this is basically all coming out of left field. oh, and my dad made a quip about how my mom has too many email accounts. holy fuck, whats going on? the pope might as well trot in thru the front doors too, roll up his sleeves, and say “dude, check my tattoo. its wicked!” before this i was under the impression my dad used email strictly for work and my mom didnt even know how to use a mouse. even tho i was initially taken back by all their tech-prowess…i fig this can only inevitably work to my benefit. maybe ill get a digital slr out of them yet…woo.
