No computer for GT on Saturday (!)
Cats: Uncategorized|I found the following note on my typist’s desk the other evening.
My mommy is looking at blogs too much. In other words she is rotting her eyes out. Someday she will die from the computer. (nah, na, na, nah nah!) She also writes her columns on the computer. Blogs + columns = 23 hours a day on the computer.
Do you think someone is trying to send me a message here?
He’s issued a challenge. I have to spend 24 hours without touching the computer. It can be switched on for the sake of the music but nothing else.
Because I make my living by the computer, this challenge has to be seen through on a weekend. So tomorrow, Saturday, is the day. Nada computer for Mama.
No blogging, emailing, writing, CSS mods, digital picture fiddling. Nuttin’. No talking to you, my bloggie friends.
So if you do not see my IP in your stats tomorrow, don’t go worrying that something terrible has happened.
Wish me well.

I’m starting to sweat for you, just thinking about not computing for 24 long hours! Ummm, I’m sure you’ll be fine, yeah, you won’t have any problems.

Sooooo…is this our opportunity to take over your blog and say whatever we want?

Good luck, I can’t do that unless I’m on vacation.

Nanc, thanks I did, but no sushi
Barbara, guess what? The sky didn’t fall in because I didn’t check my blog or emails. But I felt those needy twinges a few times.
Megan, thanks for not flaming.
WP, yes it’s easier on vacation. I highly recommend it though. It’s cleansing.
BeckEye, I almost did that at midnight and then self-corrected. It would have seemed so OCD.
Barbara2, I’m back! And it was/is a lovely day.

I’ve been practicing staying away from the computer myself. It’s weird, like me. Good going.

Dale, awwww, thanks for coming back here, just this one time.
