Breakfast is quite possibly my favorite meal of the day… I often plan the night before what I will have the next day for it… always coffee… often eggwhites.. and usually another item… cereal with fruit… and english muffin… but today it was a lemon poppy seed muffin… I made them on Monday and hadn’t had a chance to try one yet…
Keep in mind I have the luxury of taking my time preparing breakfast because of my work schedule… my husband works normal hours so he has already had breakfast and started working by the time I wake up…
He has an office in our basement for his business but also works out of an office in Botetourt… last night he sent me an instant message saying he would be in Botetourt for the day…
As I exit the kitchen with my food I usually grab my Blackberry off of the charger and peruse any messages I have… when Matt isn’t working at home I will sometimes send him a silly instant message… my way of saying good morning…
So today… after I ate my delicious lemon poppy seed muffin - I “IM’d” him about how great they were…
Within in seconds.. he responded “I’m downstairs:)” then immediately he sent a message that said “They are good.”
I laughed out loud pretty hard… because it struck me as a little bit ridiculous that instead of yelling downstairs or checking the garage… I relied on my Blackberry for communication… and then so did he…
I never used to have any interest in the latest gadgets, social networking or instant messaging.. I have been sucked in…
