As some of you know I'm digitally challenged.  I'm refering to the digits attached to the metacarpals.  I think and talk much faster than I type.  When you add in the fact that I don't know what I'm doing when it comes social networking on the computer, you have chaos.  Many of my family members and some of my friends are busy sending entrees and farm animals to one another and I'm finally figuring out how to update my profile.

Last Saturday morning I was trying to catch up on the Facebook accounts, and I noticed a small box in the lower righthand corner.  It was a friend wanting to chat.  I noticed the line at the bottom with a space below, and figured that was where I was supposed to write my reply.  I took a couple of minutes to type a short message.  Then I was stumped.  How do you send the message?  There was no send button!  I clicked on my friend's name hoping that might signal back to you and it erased all my hard work composing a message.  I had to start all over.  Not having a clue what to do I decided to ignor the chat box and diminished it.  Within a short period of time there was another chat box popping up.  This time it was my sister-in-law.  "How r u guys"  I called her up on my cell phone and told her my sad story.  She patiently talked me through the chat steps, and I told her I understood everything except how to actually send the message since there's no send button to click on.  "Oh, you push enter."

No kidding, you press enter.
