I don't have the eyes of a 20 year old
So sometimes I miss things, or misread them.
Like the Yahoo story about the cat bringing in the wood. It was actually a cat hiding in the wood, but I misread the title. I didn't read the article because it didn't interest me, but that is not the point.
Words sometimes seemed jumbled to me.
Whether it's a book, a newspaper, or a sign, sometimes I just mis read it. I don't know if that is going to be a bigger problem in the future.
But I do know auto correct is driving me nuts.
When I use an abbreviation on the phone, it will substitute a word and I don't bother to read what I wrote, so I hit send.
I told Jackie I was stopping at Petro. Auto correct changed it to Pedro. She wondered why I was stopping at Pedro.
I sent her a text that it took me two hours to get to Johns. Autocorrect changed it to Johnsons.
I caught one where I typed tonite and was autocorrected to Toni's.
And sometimes I can't see the little screens clearly and I end up sending strange messages.
And hearing?
I just heard police were investigating an alligator on the city's north side. Turned out, it was a shooting in an alley.
Well, I got part right.
I don't like this aging process at all.
