bethgsanders.com: Do Not Disconnect

    Beth,

    Being 'disconnected" bothers me also. Having my connections working and current help me relax.

    Thanks for expressing it well.

    Thanks, Gary - glad to know it's not just me.

    And I had to run out tonight and get my cell phone out of the car because I forgot it and was starting to freak out.

    Great to see you!

    Perhaps this is a sign that I'm not as "digital native" as I like to think I am, but I LOVE unplugging. Not often and never for very long (the most I've gone w/o e-mail since early 90's is a week... and that wasn't by choice), but a few days off the grid and out in the middle of nowhere seems to recharge me.

    A week without email? Ohhhh. I think I might not survive it.

    Ha. Different strokes, I guess - a few hours is plenty for me, though sometimes if I'm really busy I can go longer - just because I don't have time to think about being disconnected.
