You should enjoy your vacation while you're here! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-124540 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 12:05:47 +0000 Andrea 124540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: we still have a few weeks so I am hoping for the best. But it is most important that you start to feel better long-term. But please let me know if I can swing by with some food or something for you. Happy to help!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-124508 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 11:52:26 +0000 heffalump 124508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: your so sweet! But hopefully when your here I'll be having a good head day. At least now I actually do have good head days! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-124467 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 11:32:51 +0000 MsLipGloss 124467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not to be all doomsday or anything, but what really surprises me is just how fra-gee-lay technology really is, and how little we think about its fragility. But yanno, I think the same can be said for the human body . . . so many aspects of it are so, so fragile, and yet they do (as we expect them to) function perfectly for an extraordinarily long period of time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-124461 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 11:28:49 +0000 Andrea 124461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: :-( maybe I can come over and bring you something? I feel so bad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-124444 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 11:23:13 +0000 heffalump 124444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: that's good because I think I was getting ahead of myself. Bad migraine today. Ugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123684 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 22:25:28 +0000 Boogs 123684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw a flying car on TV the other day, it's a pretty great thing to see in my lifetime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123636 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 21:17:56 +0000 Andrea 123636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: i hope not but i will understand for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123628 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 21:11:44 +0000 heffalump 123628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: I know! Its always so hard to plan play dates because I always have to cancel. Hoping I won't have to do that with you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123553 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 19:55:14 +0000 heffalump 123553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katdevargas: its so weird. I always feel like people know I'm a robot. I read a blog for a girl who had the surgery a few years ago and she said she set off alarms in walmart. So far ive only been to target.... but at least I didn't set up the alarms there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123522 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 19:32:00 +0000 Andrea 123522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: oh!! so glad that it is working!!! =) =) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123422 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 18:31:27 +0000 katdevargas 123422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: wooow, I didn't realize that's what the surgery was going to do, either. how neat! and weird! it's like something out of a movie, talking about the future. but it's really happening, to you. that's pretty cool </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123261 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 15:25:56 +0000 heffalump 123261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: Yes, it's annoying, but sooooo worth it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123258 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 15:17:54 +0000 mediagirl 123258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee:,yikes, 3 days a week all day? Well, I guess it's good you're feeling some relief or it would be even tougher. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123256 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 15:16:04 +0000 heffalump 123256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: Yes I'm hoping that next time it's a smaller battery and lasts longer. I don't want surgery every 5-7 years for the rest of my life! Also, I have to recharge myself 2-3 days a week, and it's an all day process. I hate complaining because it is really helping my headaches so I'd rather do that than have a migraine, but it's a lot of work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123254 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 15:13:43 +0000 mediagirl 123254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just thinking about Siri today and wondering if anyone used it after the novelty wore off. Guess so! :-) </p> <p>I can't believe I can have friends all owe right the world who I can get in touch with instantly if I want to.</p> <p> @artbee: I had no idea! You have to charge yourself! Hopefully they will have better technology when you have to change that out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123228 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:47:51 +0000 heffalump 123228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Yeah, it's all very weird. DH is loving the robot jokes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123227 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:45:35 +0000 chopsuey 123227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: wow.. totally didn't realize your surgery was to have all that done..! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123226 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:44:28 +0000 heffalump 123226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Lol, yes. It's in my lower back on the left side. My stimulator is in my neck and there's wires connecting them through my back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123223 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:43:08 +0000 chopsuey 123223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Hold on. Your battery is INSIDE you? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123220 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:38:39 +0000 heffalump 123220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: I know it's crazy. Hopefully when I have to get my battery changed in 5-7 years they will put something even better in there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123211 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:32:18 +0000 chopsuey 123211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: wow! insanity! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123207 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:20:21 +0000 heffalump 123207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: That's how mine is. I'm charging myself right now. The battery is in my lower back, and I have a charger that I plug in to charge up, and then put it in a belt and place it so it's right next to my battery in my back. It beeps if it's in the wrong place, which is very annoying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123201 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:12:44 +0000 mrbee 123201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: I heard about new batteries that can charge without having to plug in! Somehow, the power travels through the air?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123199 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:11:09 +0000 mrbee 123199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: don't be talking smack about Siri. She will tell your iPhone to drop your calls! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123194 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:07:27 +0000 regberadaisy 123194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not friends with Siri!!! Wahhh......<br /> woe is me. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123192 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:06:56 +0000 chopsuey 123192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Okay you need to explain how you do this. I tried and Siri's giving me attitude! She's such a B! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sometimes-technology-blows-my-mind#post-123189 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:05:55 +0000 chopsuey 123189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need to try Siri on HB. I hate her though. </p>
