Disconnected

Its almost sickening how much of a slave to the online world I’ve become. Its now been nearly a week without regular internet access and I’m literally fretting how out of control things have become.

Sure I have my iPhone but without a wi-fi connection I can only do so much, and even though we moved last Friday the cable company can’t hook us up until next week. Its really sad how utterly useless my home desktop is without that ethernet cable connecting it to everything and everyone, its basically a glorified paperweight right now. So job searching is harder than it needs to be. Luckily I can keep email under control, I hate to think how my Google reader is, easily a few thousand items and rising by the minute. I also have no idea what’s going on in the world outside of my little bubble world, see no cable also means no TV, its like living in the dark ages here!

So I challenge you to go a while week without any kind of internet access (I’ll allow your phone of course be it regular, Blackberry or iPhone), could you do it? Could you easily avoid it? Its become so ubiquitous with our way of living its nearly impossible…
