The title of my blog is based on the fact for years, i had just a cell phone. I just make and received calls and took pictures with my cell. 
I joined the 21st Century kicking and screaming by purchasing a Samsung Note II. I now use it for everything.With this new phone i now use twitter, search the internet, checking my email, text my family and friends. I am now connected almost 24 hours a day. I think everyone is nowadays.
That is the only part of my life that was left in the 20th Century.
I have an up to date pc (well more like multiple pcs, thanks to an IT Geek hubby :)) TV is HD has all the bells and whistles, high speed internet. and the list goes on and on.
But i refused to leave behind the last of the 20th Century with my old cell phone. I enjoyed not looking down at my phone every 3 seconds to see if i received an email or text.
But in March of this year, I had no choice in the matter. See, my old phone died.....So off i went in search for a replacement phone. Little did i know, the 21st Century Technology would slap me in the face with its hand.
I spoke with the sales person and she showed this smartphone and that and this and that.....at the end of the 2 hours of perusing the GIANT DISPLAY OF WHATNOT'S, i chose Samsang Note II. I chose this as my introduction into the 21st Century because the ease of the device.
Had the salesperson call my cell provider, had the number switched over, chose a data plan, and went on my merry way......Who knew i would end up with a 21st Century headache of "OMG what have i done" type of headache......I missed the 20th century, i miss the fact i could go without checking this and that every 3 seconds. But I can not go back to the 20th Century now or ever......
The very first app i installed on my cell was GOGGLE....had to check my emails, while i was sitting the parking lot of the store. I never made it to my house to started the process of  installing of apps, i had to install just one, just one, the 21st Century was laughing her butt off at me, as i sat in my Jeep looking through all the FREE apps available through GOOGLE Play store......I swore i heard her say" I finally got her, yep she is hooked and she will NEVER EVER be able to break free"
It is now July 17th, and i have NOT stopped installing apps.....
UPDATE" July 26 still installing apps on my 21st century device :)
