Internet Vacation in 5...4...

Legit, my only real goal for this weekend is to have as many campfires as possible. Wish me luck.

Technology Holidays

Sometimes I take vacations from certain electronics in my life. Today I woke up and didn't even touch my cell phone. I left it lying on the floor turned off. There was nothing in the world it could do to get my attention. It was awesome.

I also take internet vacations, although they are usually determined by my physical location rather than my mindset. If I am away from internet access I embrace it, and am often surprised by how much I enjoy this disconnect. However, forced internet vacations caused by say, the neighbours having landscaping done that cuts off the cable... those are significantly less relaxing.

It's just enjoyable to leave something so crucial behind, if only temporarily.
