Technology

Can I complain for a minute about how much trouble technology is sometimes?  I do realize that Skype, Gmail and Facebook make living abroad bearable but once you forget your password, or worse when your account is hacked your life very quickly becomes a nightmare of question and answer sessions.  Oh, and god forbid that you forget what your security question is or the answer to one of the questions.  Then there is the issue of that wonderful foreign language, because it's impossible to live in a country and not speak it's native language, or so Google thinks.  Even if you're proficient in the language having to read in it and figure out exactly what they want on top of being stressed about forgetting all of the questions and answers being asked of you is just craziness in a glass jar. 
I do so hope no one goes through this often.  Technology is so nice to have when it works.
