Talk about passwords

I just don't know about this blog technology. I don't think that I am a Luddite - hell, I was on the Internet before many people even knew what it was (come to think of it, few people today know what it is - they just use it) - but this stuff leaves me cold. It's some bright young PC-savvy nerd saying "This is the application that you want - you can do this and this and this..." and we all conform because...it's there. If I get too grumpy let me know.

Anyway, this blogsite was set up with the help of Justin and Renee a few days ago and everything went swimmingly until some bright young PC-savvy nerd decided that there should be a 500 character limit on the blog description box (WITHOUT TELLING ME UP FRONT!), and that caused several rejections until I trimmed down the thousand or so words I had already penned (oh and no character count to help you either). No reason to get grumpy though.

I thought I had a good strong password - the invisible nerd also thought it was a "strong" password and told me so - and it was good and strong too because I lost the frickin' piece of paper I wrote it down on (remember paper?) and my memory musta failed me by one character or capitalisation or somethin' because I just couldn't log into the site last night. That meant an embarrassing e-plea to change my password and now I am back. I wrote this sucker down on another piece of paper that I am keeping (I might even get a tattoo of it perhaps - that might help and it seems to be a compulsory modern form of communication). So  all this and we haven't even got onto the road yet. Our camper is currently being modified so it's still a little while before we leave. I might even blog a description of our camping setup for those who are interested. Won't that be spiffy?

We're off. Day 1 of the journey!
