We may not need this, but that’s hardly the point.

April 18, 2011

We may not need this, but that’s hardly the point.

IMG_9569

It is accomplished. I am the proud owner of iPad 2. No need for pronouns. It’s just iPad 2.

Last Thursday morning, I received an email informing me that after waiting 5 long weeks, iPad 2 was on the FedEx truck and out for delivery. I immediately sprang into action. Shower? Check! Note on door telling the FedEx man that I was indeed home and to please knock loudly and that if I didn’t answer, please see the package release form taped to the porch door? Check!

Then I was flummoxed. Did I risk going to the basement to fold laundry only to miss the FexEx man’s delicate rapping upon my door? Or did I simply confine my tasks for the day to within 8 feet of my front door so I would be ready to stop, drop and sign for iPad 2? It was a lot to think about at 9 a.m.

And at 10 a.m. And 11 a.m. And Noon. And 1 p.m.

Finally I had to face reality: waiting by the front door wasn’t going to make it show up any sooner. So I decided to tackle errands in other parts of the house.

And wouldn’t you know it, the minute I walk away was the minute he showed up. And did he, in fact, knock loudly as requested on my Post It note? I will never know because I never heard a thing. Only at around 2:30 did I peek out onto my front porch and see a smallish box, quietly waiting to be scooped up and loved.

Hello, you sexy beast.

I placed it next to the other iPad acoutrements and took this photo.

{cue choir of angels singing here}

Realizing I had but an hour before younger Zielskes with greasy hands would be clamoring to show their own special brand of love to iPad 2, I raced up to my office, plugged that sucker in, and got down to business.

{more angels, please. thank you.}

I spent the weekend loading up on apps and trying in earnest to justify in as many ways possible my purchase of this uber cool gadget.

I can save recipes on it!

I can read magazine on it and save countless numbers of trees!

I can play Scrabble with people I don’t know!

I can watch television!

I can take pictures of myself and do nutty things with them!

I can record videos as a talking cat!

I can check my email!

I…I… well I’m still working on this list.

IMG_9540

Long story short, and in the words of that SNL cast member who does the killer Miley Cyrus impersonation: it’s pretty cool.

Make no mistake, I plan to make a scrapbook page about this experience very soon. In the meantime, you can find me playing “Words with Friends” and coming to the explosive and shocking realization that I zero mastery of the English language when placed into digital tile form.

Now if you’ll excuse me, it’s my turn and I’m going to play my next word, “Geek.”

    Congratulations on the new baby. I have the first generation and not as cool as yours I’m still completely in love with it. Another bonus….reading books in bed (kindle app)without a book light! LOVE IT! Don’t forget you can adjust the brightness of the screen for times like that so it’s not burning your eyeballs out at 2am when you can’t put a good book down.

LOVE it… Thrilled, overjoyed, etc etc. πŸ™‚ Wasn’t really sure that I would enjoy it so much, but YES… I DOOOO! πŸ™‚ So.. now we have iMac, check…, iPhones 4, check…kids iPods, check…Apple TV, check… and both versions of iPad!

    My 75-year-old mom had lost interest in so many of her past hobbies. Then my brother bought her an iPad last year, and she’s not been the same. She learned how to play games, look up song lyrics, google info on her favorite actors, and watch grandkids in videos that family members in far away places send to her.

    Those things are magic. Congratulations on yours!

    I have the original. But last night when I was too tired to be productive, instead of watching tv, I sat in the recliner with my iPad and organized my web-clipped sketches in Evernote. I tagged them with number of photos and style. Next I plan to scan all the ones I’ve ripped from magazines so that I have them all in one place. But last night it was all about being productive when I was too tired to sit at my computer. And the night before, it was atbout being prductive at baseball practice, and in the doctor’s waiting room… You get the idea.

He travels quite a bit and he takes it with him on all his trips. So much for “the family.” Think I will have to show him up and surprise myself with an iPad 2 for Mother’s Day!

    I have tied my ownership to an iPad to a specific running distance (aren’t you so proud of me) but as Matt has no such self-imposed craziness on him, I totally decided to get him one for his birthday last week. Out of the blue. He is usually the one that pulls of the giant birthday surprise and I get him grill tools, you get the idea. BUT! (and here’s where you’ll fall over) I went into Target with a portion of tax refund in hand thinking if they had the one I wanted for him it was meant to be. They did. No waiting for the Fed Ex man. Target in CHEYENNE of all places. Hee.

    One more thing in this ridiculously long comment: I’ve decided people shouldn’t have to justify this glorious toy-like thing; children get toys they love all the time and don’t justify them. It’s OK to be a grownup with a toy you love : ) (Maybe by summer I can join you)

    Don’t know if you or any of your family is a Civil War History fan, but the new iPad app that just came out on the Civil War is fabulous – even if you aren’t a history buff. It will be a day by day site for the next 4 years, with the headlines, pictures, journals battlefield maps, regarding that day back in 1861-1864. Wish I had something like that back in school – i9t really makes it come alive and you get an appreciation for the time.

    This post really made me smile! We got an iPad 2 last Thursday, and just got it ‘up and running’ on Saturday. I was thinking all weekend, “I must get a photo of me with it” – but a) it was never out of use, and b) I was having a make-up free gardening-type weekend, so sartorially my look did not go with my iPad! Then I saw your post today, and finally got round to taking my own photos. I have a 13 year old daughter, and prising it from her sticky little mitts has been the biggest challenge – I hope the forthcoming purchase of an iPhone (for her) might ease that a little! She downloaded that same talking cat app you have, and has been delighting us with it all weekend! The apps are so cool – I’m now on the lookout for any cool ones – perhaps you can share with your blog readers any good ones you find (before you develop your own πŸ™‚

    Incidently, the iPad was acquired by my DH in a ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’-type golden ticket scenario – he had to queue outside the Apple Store and see if he was one of the lucky few! I wish I’d been there to take a photo of that!

I wasn’t THAT crazy to lose my beauty sleep, though I did order one as soon as I got out of bed while the wait was only 5-7 days. For the next week I was saying to myself, “Pretty. Cool. Pretty cool.” I’ll have to check out the cat app.

    Believe me Kay, this took a while to justify. It really, really did. I basically said If i can pay for it with cash, and have no lingering bills to pay off, then I can afford it. I have this little rainy day fun that I basically emptied out. : )

    Whoo-hoo! Have fun with your iPad 2! Earlier this year, my hubby and I bought iPads, and when we heard about the new one, we were like, “Nuh-uh! how’d that happen? we just bought these a few weeks ago?!&7^*{]*!” Then our 8-year old Malcolm said, “Mom, Dad, you HAVE TO get the iPad 2! I mean, are Steve Jobs and me the only two people who get it? The iPad 1 is OLD!” Now, That’s a quote going in my PLife for this month.

    SO many great educational apps for the kids. Elements, solar system, math board and spelling board, and the list goes on and on. NASA’s app is awesome too. Garage Band is so fun to play with and my 12 year old has already recorded some songs on it.

    My kids are thrilled, their school recently announced that starting next year grades 5 and up will be “strongly encouraged” to bring one to school, and the following year it will be mandatory for every student, with special pricing from Apple through the school. Many schools in our city (Orange, CA) are adopting the same policy as the uses for school work are just exploding. So don’t worry about justifying, soon you’ll wonder how your family got along without one! πŸ™‚

    Maybe you could do a post of your favorite apps when you’ve had time to play around. I love learning about apps from other people. πŸ˜‰

    Why is it that the postman always rings twice, but UPS never even knocks?

    It is so cool. So last night, I made a dish and then took a pic of it with my iPad and dropped it right into the recipe file for Paprika. Love that.
