Necessity

      Necessity is the mother of invention. But sometimes it's nice to have some inventions for the sake of convenience. For example, today I tried to withdraw some money from an ATM and it told me that the machine didn't have the funds to support the transaction... I thought this a little strange but whatever. So I went to another ATM instead. This time it randomly began canceling the transaction and spit my card back out... weirder. So I tried a couple more ATMs with no luck. 
      Fortunately I had a skype date with my mother already set for the evening so I could talk to her about it. She didn't know I was taking a picture of the desktop but this is her helping me:
What a great mom right? So I could talk to the Bank lady on the phone when my mom held the phone up to the computer! And I didn't even need to pay for a collect call. Isn't technology amazing? One day the world might be ruled by robots, but for now I am lovin every second of it!

P.S. I did eventually get the ATM to work so, no worries, I will survive.
