Silent listener

I'm dictating this at a very low frequency just because I'm a little worried about the extra AI living in my apartment might hear me- - actually I know that she will hear me and that's kind of freaky. It's the one that starts with an A that's all I'm going to say fill in the rest of the words you can do it on your own. You know it's that entity that you put on your system unless you ask it to turn the lights on or play your favorite radio channel probably even flip the TV around too as far as that goes Channel wise. Anyway it all happened on my birthday when the kids came over to the apartment after we had breakfast. They came over for cake and gifts. I didn't even need gifts are you going to want any of these really just more things you have to clean on to. I'm at the point in my life where I need to diversify get rid of stuff make my burden a little bit lighter as I walk off into the sunset. Anyway I was so kind of freaked out when my grandson-in-law pulled out this device and started installing it in the apartment. I should have just said no I don't want it that seems such a rude thing to do for someone who really thought they were doing a great deal by getting this for you. It's of course one of those voice systems that do whatever it tells you to do in your apartment or your household now whoever knows what else. He installed it directly tied it into the television system and what other systems that might be usable in the apartment. I don't know cuz I haven't used it yet I don't plan on using it but I should be careful I may have to eat those words one never really knows. Of course because she tied it into the Amazon system that I use I started seeing pieces of email pop up on my system telling me about certain programs or services this convenience can be. It was strange because the second he turned it on felt like there was another person in the room- - and actually there was or is. Some one who is listening and wants to help you. Again, I feel bad that I don't just stand my ground and tell him to take it out. So I'm going to try it out for a couple weeks. I don't know if I'll use it or not but it's all set up and ready to go I can get can't get myself into too much trouble in that amount of time.


I thought about going out and doing something today but even though the sun was out and it looked like spring it didn't feel like it. I went outside early on this morning for some reason that I don't remember any longer but it was chilly and it was chilly that I didn't want to be out and if I didn't have to. But good friend Dwayne came over for lunch she brought me over a Italian sandwich it was really quite good and I had some for dinner as well I leftovers and I went down to meet him at the front of the building which is by the front doors which lets a lot of the atmosphere in from the outside and it was still feeling pretty cold even though it was probably in the 50s temperature wise. I went to a movie yesterday and I felt that was probably enough for this week of being out though I did put a few other things on my to get list and that is salsa. I want to get a medium sized bottle of salsa and get the real spicy kind the hot kind that's got to help me out quite a bit.
