That sounds like me, LOL. I do have a Nook Color though. Every time I see someone post that their internet is down, I wonder how the heck they posted it. Must be one of those fancy smart phones that does more than make phone calls. I have a stupid phone. It does take pictures, but not very good ones.
I meant to post this yesterday...
What do you get when you cross poison ivy with a 4 leaf clover ??

This picture is worth it even if you don't take the time to read the story below.
Paul Newman
Only women of a certain era will fully appreciate this.... True story.
A Michigan woman and her family
were vacationing in a
small New England town where
Paul Newman and his family often visited.
One Sunday morning, the woman
got up early to take a long walk.
After a brisk five-mile hike,
she decided to treat herself to
a double-dip chocolate ice cream cone.
She hopped in the car,
drove to the center of the village
and went straight to the
combination bakery/ice cream parlor.
There was only one other patron
in the store:
Paul Newman,
sitting at the counter
having a doughnut and coffee.
The woman's heart skipped a beat
as her eyes made contact
with those famous baby-blue eyes.
The actor nodded graciously
and the star struck woman smiled demurely.
Pull yourself together!
She chides herself.
You're a happily married woman
with three children,
you're forty-five years old,
not a teenager!
The clerk filled her order
and she took the double-dip
chocolate ice cream cone in one hand
and her change in the other.
Then she went out the door,
avoiding even a glance
in Paul Newman's direction.
When she reached her car,
she realized that she had a
handful of change
but her other hand was empty.
Where's my ice cream cone?
Did I leave it in the store?
Back into the shop she went,
expecting to see the cone still
in the clerk's hand
or in a holder on the counter
or something!
No ice cream cone was in sight..
With that, she happened to look
over at Paul Newman.
His face broke into his familiar,
warm, friendly grin and he said to the woman,
'You put it in your purse.'

ROFL! If I'd run into Paul Newman, I'm sure I would have done the same thing!
When I had my video store I had a customer who told me about her honeymoon in the Pocono's. It was late in the vacation season and she and her husband were one of two couples in the dining room. The other couple was Paul Newman and his wife. As they were being seated the Newmans invited them to share a table. She said it was great. Paul drank beer out of the bottle and Joanne Woodward fussed at him for acting like a clod. They went running with them and out on a boat for fishing. She said they got cards for thier aniversary for a long time from Joanne until Paul became sick.
