Dig Deep #7: A Skype Thing

Any connection I have with my family, friends and beau, I have over Skype. 

It's a wonderful thing, this Skype thing. Free, unlimited calling anywhere in the world. And a camera to boot. Who could ask for more...other than a hug.

Above is my mom and dad at their office. Mom is showing off her best big-eyed features and Dad is enjoying probably his 1,000th turkey wrap for the year. He is on a diet of strictly turkey, tortilla, and sliced cheese. It seems to be working, and I owe it to Skype for knowing that. Keep up the good work, pops. And, Mom, put those eyes back in their sockets where they belong. 
This is my boo. He seems like a shadowy presence, but that couldn't be further from the truth. I do love his aviator head set. He could be selling me two tickets on American or a happy meal, but I owe Skype for the opportunity to even poke fun at his been-outsourced-to-India headgear. 

But, when all is said and done...Aint nothing like the real thing, baby. Aint nothing like the real thing.
