Hey Lisa,
How does it effect you at work and in your social life?
Sometime I find that you get used to certain routines, personal opinions , that appear normal to you for months and years, but then suddenly you notice that a few people you know find the routines/habbitts and opinions completly baffling.
People are often amazed that I dont know much about mobile phones(i have my nokia brick and am so greatfull for its simpleness!) or how to buy things on e bay e.t.c
do you find this?
welcome to the boards, you are nearly as new to them as me!
