Disconnect to Protect

Yes, it's catchy and I came up with it myself. (Okay, half of it is from the "Day to Disconnect" project, (which happens to be today) and the other half is from Lysol, disinfect to protect. But hey, it took a genius to bring the two together :) )

I have a confession to make: I am addicted to my laptop. I cannot even tell you how many hours I am on it each day, or each week. I waste so much time.

So, I am taking a stand. I am giving my laptop to my friend for a week, from today until after Yom Kipper. And yes, I have email and internet on my phone, but I am going to sign out and not check it. You have my word on that.

What will I do with my free time? I don't know. Maybe take walks, go to a museum, read a book, (ya they still make those), call people on the PHONE, (remember that?). Learn something. There are so many better things I can be doing with my time then wasting it on the computer.

So farewell my friends, for a week.

And for those of you who have my number, feel free to CALL me :) Yes, I will be accepting phone calls. (Email or leave comments as well, I can't wait to see how many emails I'll have after a week of not checking it.)

I shall let you know in a weeks time how this little experiment plays out. Who knows, it may very well be the best thing I've ever done in my life.

Tata for now!
