As often as I've wished, nay pined to blog in the early year, alas all efforts have been thwarted. Terrorist actions? Subterfuge? Alien invaders? Alas the reason is simple - as simple as I. Tis age. Marching onward, my post 50 age has impacted my memory.
Life was not so complicated in the long long ago - there was no need to memorize and enact several security clearances in the form of a password. Or secret log in name. Or super secret code with vague questions to remind you of the now long forgotten secret password. Questions framed to jog a memory lead to more confusion. My first teacher? My favorite pet? My first out of country vacation? Why not ask me what was my favorite blankie or first out of body experience? These are all about as meaningful as...well as my password.
And if the selection of the password was my choice, why on earth did I choose something so obscure, so mundane, that no amount of forehead slapping would reveal to me what it was! I just couldn't recall - and for some unknown reason I hadn't entered my secret password in my super secure vault on my Blackberry!
Now the Blackberry, or BB to those in the know, is a great way to store all your secret passwords. It's a vault whose gates hide the passwords to my phone, my computer, my bank account, various other bill accounts and my Kobo. What tho would happen if my super duper secret deluxe password, the one and only that I use to open this repository to all things Marlean were lost in the O Cr@p Zone! THIS WOULD BE A DISASTER OF EPIC PROPORTIONS! So in order for this massive failure not to take place, I have my code of codes, the big secret squirrel one that is forever embedded in my mind. And so far - it works!
Unless you get into the safe deposit of all things password-related and can't remember that damn password. Which eventually I did - after using a variety of combinations of names, places, numbers and upper/lower case. Phew!
The reward dear reader is my ability to re-enter the sacred world of the blog - that calm, clean, undemanding place where I am able to blather at leisure on topics that range far and wide. From my pet cat to pinterest...it's all here waiting to be let out, released as it were with the one secret password to my life.
Thank you my friends! Good evening.....
