Hi grandma it's been a really busy week. Oh, Who am I kidding, it's been a really busy month. I'm sorry it's been so long since I wrote you, but I have a new toy that you help me do that a lot better. I have a new phone, which uses Google's interactive voice control, I go mom really busy week. All, who my kidding, it's been really busy month. I'm sorry it's been so long since I wrote you but I have a new toy did you tell me do that lot better. I have a new phone, interactive so I'm literally dictating this empty inside the computer as I drive home.
We are slowly settling into our new apartment. It's been a lot of work though. Julia family visited us after we got all set in it was very nice. I need a couple of different restaurants, including a very nice French place. Mainly, we just spent a lot of time on the beach. I have to tell you that probably the nicest part about living in Miami is the fact that it's very nice weather here almost all the time. Go, Julia still gets a little bit depressed on cloudy days. Don't tell her I told you that. Although to be honest, I am posting this on a blog that I figure our children might theoretically eventually read. That's not a big announcement, we just trying, but I'm pretty sure we already told you that when we visited last November.
A friend of Julia by the name of Kelly, is helping me with my writing. It's a bit difficult to explain in terms that isn't really arcane, but what you say it's helping me a lot be able to get some reading done which is a good thing. Very soon I'm going to start submitting short stories again to magazines and writing more on my blog. And that's very nice since I've been running a long time without really doing anything with a lot of the things that I've been writing. Not that I expect it be super famous anytime soon, but it's nice to know that something is going to be done with what I'm writing.
New line
I'm half tempted to send this to you raw since you as you can see from the way it writes things it's still a little bit stupid. Occasionally it posts exactly what I'm saying so for example to get a
You say the word NEW and then the word line in fact sometimes the word paragraph together make what is supposed to be the next thing you see gosh I can't even think of how to say this so I'll just leave it as it is I'm sure it would probably amuse you so what you say it's literally typing what I'm saying and leave it at that. Normally I'm not a fan of the oh I need to remember to write more next time I considered a waste of time. In fact, when I read some of the old material that Julia had at some of the Ark of his classes it was amazing how much of these old priceless historical documents are about people talking about the need to produce more priceless historical documents. I certainly know in my old journal, that a lot of what I wrote was about the need to write more in my journal. But in this case I'm talking about the method by which I'll be writing you more in the future so I guess it's somewhat relevant I'll be basically copying and pasting what I have written here cleaning it up in the future after this particular one and then sending it to you once a week so that you can find out how Julia and I are doing. We still have to hang up pictures, and we have a few boxes down cover but we're about 90% of the way there. We also have to get a queen size frame for our bed since the old one was falling apart we left it behind in Charlotte.
A friend of ours, Wayne, gave us his old plasma TV. And we're also getting something called a Kindle Fire stick. And well I know you're very intelligent, that pretty much I'm sure sound something along the lines of the wizard picked up the wand and cast a magic spell to summon the ferry. I was supposed to be a fairy with wings not a fairy that carries people across the ocean. Well anyway as you can see there are some problems with this so in the future I'll have to correct it in but I'm sure this time it will give you some amount of amusement. Anyway the reason I mention that is because it's a very nice and neat way to watch a lot of shows and that's one of the things that really and I do a lot together. It's something that we have in common with you and Mom and skip.
New line
Right now the main things are watching together or a show called the wire which is about the drug wars in the 1990s and the futility thereof and how complicated and shades of grey a lot of these characters were. It's an award winning drama and we like it. The other show we're watching is called the Americans with AK even though I know there's no way that this thing is going to spell it like that. It's basically about a pair of spies that we're under deep cover in the 1980s. It's fascinating to see us looking back now and what we considered important then in what we consider important now and more interesting LeAnn importantly in the, how what we consider now shades what we considered important then so we get a chance here in the future to have a net word in edgewise even wear more doing something about the past. It reminds me of a story I wrote called Mr hamburger about a guy who's in the future and it's just for having eating hamburgers. The story really isn't about his journey to the future, it's about how we in the present often judge people in the past entirely out of context. To be honest when I think about it it almost makes me not want to care about what future generations think, because they're going to think whatever the heck they want anyway no matter what I do. The last show we're watching is called Gotham and it's basically about the years of before Batman became the Batman which I know you don't read a lot of comics so I know you know that there's a guy called Batman and Commissioner Gordon works with them in this article about that but we like it. Paragraph new on
Good lord, sometimes I wonder if this technology is even worth it. Well just kidding, obviously it is otherwise I wouldn't be using it. Still, as you can see it's far from perfect. Alright well I'm going to get more details a week from now I love you very much I hope you are as well as possible and are working with your therapist so that you can be mobile and very happy. I hope to see you this July. Love your grandson tom
