Skype time
Thursday, May 6, 2010 Bubby left yesterday -- with Daddy alone, no Mommy! -- to visit his grandma and grandpa on the plains. That, of course, required a quick Skype session with this grandma and grandpa before he left.
Here's how it went:
Hey, Bub! 
Yay, It's Grandma and Grandpa! 
Time to show them how goofy I can be. 
And let them know I've got ALL my teeth now! 
Look how quickly I can shake my head ... back and forth over and over! 
That's right ... I'm a silly one! 
But I can smile sweet, too. 
And listen really well. 
And look: I have two feet now! 
I can meow back at Isabel when you hold her to the camera. 
Meows, of course, must be followed by fish sounds. 
Did I mention all my teeth? 
This is the bedtime song I sing with Mommy: Love, love, love, love. I like to sway back and forth when we sing it. 
It just makes me want to love, love Mommy! 
Time to go! Here's a kiss! 
Kissing the monitor is so silly!
Saying buh-bye is always a little sad.
Today's question (from my trivia calendar, but fitting):
In the world of high-tech messages, you no doubt know what spam is; but how about spim and spit?
The answer: I'll tell you after a few comments; just curious if anyone knows. I didn't.

ANSWER TO THE QUESTION: After seeing that most folks are as in the dark about spim and spit as I was, here's the answer. Spim is spam sent through instant messaging and spit is spam sent through Internet telephone (ie Skype). There ya have it -- you've all learned your one new thing for the day!

Spim: Who knows Spit: Something you teach kids to NOT do.
Very adorable post! Try not to worry too much while he is out on the plains alone. No idea what spim and spit is.
I learn such interesting things on your blog. :-)
And those pictures of Bubby made me smile from ear to ear! Isn't Skype great?
Yes... I've learned something new! And your Bubby is delectable!
Thanks for keeping me up to date on all the high tech lingo.
